Zig-zag system

The modular design of energy chain makes this possible Space-saving and unconventional solution. For modern platform technology, such as theatre stages, a variety of cables and hoses which adjust the stage height must be accommodated. Stroke heights of up to 40m are possible.

How the zig-zag system worksThe folded energy chain is placed in a customised basket. If the platform is raised, the energy chain unfolds, generating little or no noise. This construction is possible with the e-chains® of the E4.1 system as well as many other types.

Technical data:

The new standard in the theatre and stage technology industry features greatly reduced weight on trusses; modular design and travel lengths of 5-15 metres. The new system is rounded off with fasteners for trusses, a support plate on the moving end, and an optional safety package that can be ordered based on DIN EN 17206 and DGUV Principle 315-390.

• Price reduced by up to 30% compared to the previous design
• Save up to 20% cost
• Low-maintenance and modular system

All the advantages of an e-chain® with a new guide concept for travel lengths of up to 10m. The system was designed for use on various trusses and based on DIN EN 17206 and DGUV Principle 315-390. The current system length amounts to 2.16m. Different chain widths are possible, inner widths from 75 to 150mm are available.

• Weight is less than half of that of the standard zig-zag basket, allowing a higher payload
• Price reduced by up to 50% compared to the standard zig zag basket
• Lower drive power thanks to weight reduction
• Quiet polymer e-chains®
