REIKU jointed tubings are now available in the nominal sizes of 48 and 76. A variety of new connectors
enables them to be flexibly incorporated into the production environment and to readily connect them
with conventional corrugated conduits. Photo: REIKU
Johann Kasper, who is responsible for robot cable
ducts at REIKU, says: “Our jointed tubings have
been proving themselves in practice for more
than ten years in applications in which corrugated
tubing or link chains reach or exceed their loading
limits. Their main advantage is their rotatability
in the longitudinal axis, which avoids the related
torsional moments and stresses. As a result, and
because the piping does not bend, the amount of
wear and tear is reduced and the life expectancy is
extended significantly. For the user, this means fewer
downtimes for the production lines and reduced
labour costs for replacement.”
