Cable carriers, also known as drag chains, energy chains, or cable chains depending on the manufacturer, are guides designed to surround and guide flexible electrical cables and hydraulic or pneumatic hoses connected to moving automated machinery. They reduce wear and stress on cables and hoses, prevent entanglement, and improve operator safety.

Cable carriers may be arranged to accommodate horizontal, vertical, rotary and three-dimensional movements.

Today cable carriers are available in many different styles, sizes, prices and performance ranges. Some of the following variants are:

  • open
  • closed (protection from dirt and debris, such as woodchips or metal shavings)
  • Steel or Stainless steel
  • low noise
  • cleanroom compliant (minimal wear)
  • multi-axis movement
  • high load resistant
  • chemical, water and temperature resistant
