Overview of the structural classification and application of drag chain cables

Hits:38 Pub:2025-05-03
Overview of drag chain cable:
A drag chain cable is a highly flexible specialized cable that can move back and forth with a drag chain without wear and tear, commonly known as a drag chain cable or tank chain cable.

Structural classification of drag chain cables:
1. Non shielded structure: The core wire adopts short pitch optimized cable design, anti twist structure design/grouped gap filling design, and the cable is widely used as a power transmission cable.


2. Shielding structure: The shielded drag chain cable adopts a high-density shielding mesh layer of tinned copper wire braided cable. The designed cable has excellent anti electromagnetic interference performance and can be customized with a single-layer or double-layer sheath structure.

3. Twisted shielding structure: The cable core wire adopts a paired structure design with high-density tin plated copper mesh as the cable shielding layer. The cable is mainly used as a high flexibility signal transmission and feedback cable, and can be customized with single-layer or double-layer sheath structure according to needs.


Drag chain cables are mainly used in industrial electronic systems, automatic generation lines, storage equipment, robots, fire protection systems, cranes, CNC machine tools, and metallurgical industries.
