RBR rotating energy supply application examples

The RBR rotating energy supply system is suitable for high-speed applications with a maximum rotation angle in a very small installation space. Rotation angle of up to 540° (in one plane), speed of up to 360°/s, lighter and more compact than static guide troughs.
Typical industries and application areas:
offshore, stacker/reclaimer, bucket-wheel excavators, rotary cranes, other rotating applications

Bucket wheel reclaimer

This bucket wheel reclaimer also has to be equipped with a assembling of +/-180° which can move in a circle. The e-chains® have to acced this movement.
