apparatus engineering, the automobile industry, in smelting plants and rolling mills, in materials-handing technology, in nuclear technology and in the offshore area, to name but a few branches: they have become a by-word in quality for optimalie careful-laying of supply lines. SHINSUNG drag chains act as a carrying, leading and protective element at one and the same time for all supply cables and hoses.
■ Assembly
SHINSUNG drag chains consist of two or more chain bands, running parallel to one another, and made of high grade, surface galvanized sheet steel. Chain bands of rust and acid resistant material available on request. The Chain bands are connected at intervals by stays. The stays, which can be supplied in various designs, take up the supply leads to be led in bore holes or opening. The drag chains are constructed in such a way that the curvature radius necessary in use is always guaranteed. The leads laid are thus not subject to any kind of mechanical stress. The chain joints block in the opposite direction. There are hardly any special structural requirements for connecting a SHINSUNG drag chain to mobile machinery.
■ Reasons for using SHINSUNG drag chains
No wear on cables and hoses
Long life of lines assured by protection from mechanical stress
Avoidance of periods of disturbance and down time
Little space required
Simple assembly
Low maintenance requirements
Good visual improession
Short delivery times for standard measurements

Mini. bending radius of cables/hoses acc. to manufacturer's specifications
Length of travel mobile unit.
Maximum acceleration/deceleration
Speed of travel
Frequency of travel
Type of application drawing if possible
