3. Product description
Trough system The energy supply chain lies in a trough system (>>> Fig. 3-6) manufactured
by IGUS.
The trough system consists essentially of two troughs and C-profiles. The C-
profiles are positioned at right angles to the troughs. The length of the troughs
and the number of C-profiles depend on the travel of the linear unit and thus
on the length of the energy supply chain. The trough system is fastened via
the C-profiles to the floor using chemical anchors.
