Our standard CAN-D-Flex® Festoon Cable Systems are designated to deliver power and control to mobile equipment that has a reciprocal motion. The performance and flexibility of these systems has resulted in their expansion from powering overhead cranes and hoists to now include alternate applications, such as, Jib and Gantry cranes, Car shakers, Plating and cleaning lines, Monorails, and Welding equipment to mention a few.
Our standard electrical systems utilize multi-conductor electric cables constructed in a flat configuration, with the conductors totally enclosed in a tough, flexible, bright yellow PVC jacket.
|
|
|
|
The flat cables allow many conductors to be mounted using minimal space, and their design minimizes bending stress, making them the optimum choice for festoon applications. Round electrical cable, air hoses, hydraulic hoses, and even water hoses can also be used with this system.
The four basic CAN-D-Flex ® systems are 14 Guage Galvanized C-Track, Heavy Duty Aluminum T-Track, I-Beam Trolley and Tag-Line Systems. All are inherently safe, with no exposed electrical surfaces, and are ideally suited for both indoor and outdoor applications.

C-TRACK
C-TRACK Festoon Cable Systems are the durable, all-purpose workhorse of the industry, and are suitable for a host of applications, both indoor and outdoor.
The track is made of 14 gauge galvanized steel and comes in convenient lengths which simply bolt together.
|
|
|
T-TRACK
|
|
|
|
|
|
T-TRACK Heavy Duty Festoon Cable Systems are specially designed for applications where a more robust system is required to support heavier loads at wider support spacing. Made of a high strength aluminium extrusion, these systems are rugged enough to handle the most demanding application.
This system can be used for Spark Resistant and Curved Applications

I-BEAM TROLLEY
|
Our I-Beam Festoon Trolleys are designed and constructed to fit varying beam sizes with their adjustable chassis. These light-duty trolleys are made of galvanized steel. With a maximum speed of 60m/min., the two-wheel trolley has a maximum load rating of 30kg and the four-wheel trolley has a maximum load rating of 60Kg.
These I-Beam trolleys are ideally used on monorails to transport electric cables or air hoses. Our I-Beam trolleys can be ordered with one or more saddle assemblies.

TAG-LINE
|
|
|
|
|
|
CAN-D’s Tag-Line Festoon Cable Systems are designed to provide reliable performance in light duty applications. The standard cable is constructed of galvanized steel aircraft cable coated to1/4" with durable nylon.
