Standard channel

Sheet steel guide channels

Properties

  • Simple version with customized fixing options.
  • Zinc plated sheet steel or stainless steel.
  • Standard lengths.

Zinc plated sheet steel / stainless steel

Standard lengths 2000 / 3000 mm
Special lengths on request

Features

  • Universal installation – the channel side walls do not require aligning as there are no single side walls
  • Large support widths through sturdy U-design
  • Optionally available as a corrosion resistant, sea water resistant version
  • Easy fixing options:
    • standard angle brackets for screwing
    • welded on directly on site
    • different fixing variants

Individual solutions

We can also manufacture customized sheet steel guide channels for your application, taking into account virtually any request regarding customized shapes and fixing options.

Versions

One-sided arrangement

For one-sided arrangement of the cable carrier, the cable carrier slides behind the fixed point on a continuous slide support with run-on bevels.

Closed design

One part channel closed at the bottom and one part slide support with run-on bevels.

Open design

One part channel closed at the bottom and divided slide support with run-on bevels.
Dirt and liquids can drop through without restrictions.

Opposite arrangement

For opposite arrangement, a slide support is also attached for bridging between the fixed point connections.

Closed design

One part channel closed at the bottom and one part slide support with run-on bevels.

Open design

One part channel closed at the bottom and divided slide support with run-on bevels.
Dirt and liquids can drop through without restrictions.

A special slide support can be adhered to reduce sliding resistance and abrasion between cable carrier and support. We recommend the use of special slide supports for velocities > 0.5 m/s and for frequent move cycles.

Dimensions

From hKA ≥ 200 mm, the guide channel flanks are additionally stabilized with alignment flanges or with connecting flanges.

The dimension y refers only to open guide channel versions.

The cable carrier outer width without attachments Bk is taken into account for calculating the inner width of guide channel b1 and the overall width BKA.

Fixing Elements

Standard fixing with angle brackets (standard)

The angle brackets are mounted at the joins, ensuring precise connection of the joint areas in addition to fixing the channel to the substructure.

  • Optimum alignment of the joins
  • Reduced installation times
  • Minimum number of screw connections
  • Reliable fixing, even under rough conditions

Calculating the c-profile length

C-profile length LP: LP = b1 + 106

C-profile length LP rounded to 50 mm

Suitable perforated C-profiles can be found at Assembly profiles for guide channels.

[in mm]		b2
[in mm]		X1
[in mm]
2b1 + 54104
3b1 + 56106

The sheet metal thickness “s” corresponds to the respective wall thickness “s” of the channel

As a standard, the angle brackets included with the delivery are installed on all joins as well as at both ends of a channel. If you require more angle brackets beyond this, please state this when ordering.

Fixing kit (optional)

The delivery scope of the standard channel does not include the optional joining clamp fixing kit.

Fixing kit
(1) C-rail (length depends on b1)
(2) Hexagon socket screws
(3) Slide nut

The length of the C-rail depends on the channel width and is supplied in standard lengths. Please contact us if you require custom lengths.

Fixing with alignment flanges and floor fixing plate

The fixing tabs are mounted at the joins, ensuring precise connection of the joint areas in addition to fixing the channel to the substructure.

  • Optimum alignment of the joins
  • Reduced installation times
  • Minimum number of screw connections
  • Push-to-connect system

C-Profile length LP

LP = b1 + 105

C-profile length LP rounded to 50 mm

Fixing with floor fixing bracket

The floor fixing brackets are mounted at the joins, ensuring precise connection of the joint areas in addition to fixing the channel to the substructure.

  • Easy alignment of the joins
  • Reduced installation times
  • Minimized number of screw connections

C-Profile length LP

LP = b1 + 66

C-profile length LP rounded to 50 mm

Fixing with lateral connecting flange

The unsupported connecting flanges are mounted at the joins, ensuring precise connection of the joint areas in addition to fixing the channel to the substructure.

  • Unsupported joins without support (self supporting) through flange connections
  • Reliable, secure connection even with extreme vibrations or in unsupported channel arrangements
