e-spool® compact Cable Reel
Spring-driven cable reel with e-chain® cable carriers and no slip ring
The compact e-spools® for 6.56 ft. (2m) and 13.12 ft. (4m) extension are optimized for small installation spaces with smaller linear chains and twisterbands for a wide range of applications. As with the larger standard and HD systems, the compact e-spool® systems enable trouble-free guidance and flexible filling
e-spool® compact features
- Compact, safe-saving cable drum without a slip ring
- Different media (power, data, air, and fluids) can be routed together in one system.
- Energy supply in all directions
- Cables can easily be added or changed
- Space saving and virtually "invisible"
- Light-weight design made from aluminum
Typical applications:
- manual workstations
- assembly lines
- small telescopic applications
- retractable applications– linear or rotary

Filling rules for the e-spool compact®
Due to the special mechanical stress in an e-spool compact®, we recommend using our chainflex® cable. We also recommend adhering to the following filling rules:
1. Cables may only be laid side by side in the linear chain - never lay several cables on top of each other.
2. chainflex® cables with a TPE outer jacket should be used for unshielded cables wherever possible.
3. Shielded cables should be from the chainflex® CFROBOT cable family.
4. The maximum bend radius of the twisterband used must be observed.
5. If possible, use separators to protect cables against flashover and abrasion. To make the best possible use of the interior space, install separators alternately in consecutive segments.
6. Insert cables sorted by diameter or bend radius - insert thin, small ones towards the inside and larger ones towards the outside.
7. Relieve the strain on both ends of the cable. The cable tie knot must not be fitted in the direction of the chain.
8. The cables should be laid in the twisterband in such a way that they have some clearance space both outwards and inwards to the rotary axis.
Installation instructions
In horizontally travelling applications, a smooth surface must be provided on which the energy chain can travel.
