Motor cable CF886.25.04 / CF896.25.04
Using the CF886 and 896 in practice
Various requirements are placed on machine tools. Among other things, the required durability must be met, but the economic efficiency of each system is also important. With these aspects in mind, it is always important to consider which cable quality is appropriate for which application. A laser cutting system is not affected by oil or similar chemicals, so it is crucial that the cables of the drives are as flexible as possible and well protected against dust and swarf. The CF886 is suitable for this environment thanks to its abrasion-resistant PVC outer jacket. If oil is present in the clearance, e.g. in a machining centre, then the iguPUR outer jacket of the CF896 is the cost-effective alternative to classic PUR cables.
Motor cable CF886.160.04
Using the CF886 in practice
Sawing, routing, edging, gluing - there are many motors in the wood industry that need to be moved. Not least due to the ever-increasing automation of processes. These applications may look simple at first glance, but process reliability and freedom from maintenance are extremely important here too. The CF886 is ideal for the conditions in factory halls. Thanks to its good abrasion properties, the PVC outer jacket has no problems with dust or swarf and the shielding of the cable means that neighbouring data or control cables are not affected. As such systems are used worldwide, they not only require a reliable service life, but often also UL approval.
Motor cable CF30.15.04
Using the CF30 in practice
Tight installation spaces, cleaning agents, dirt and many double strokes - all this can be found in a car wash. The CF30 is designed for such requirements and is also suitable for applications from +5 to +70°C thanks to the PVC outer jacket. The cable is oil-resistant and flame-retardant, has good sliding properties and can realise travels of up to 100m. It is important that this cable has UL certification for the international market.
Motor cable CF270.UL.25.04.D
Using the CF270.UL.D in practice
Process automation in the automotive industry saves time and money. Automation technology in the production line is a key aspect of this and requires a great deal of drive technology with motors and inverters. From the body shop to the paint shop to final assembly, the systems are located in different environments and come into contact with different materials. In all these areas, motor cables are needed that meet the strict requirements of the automotive industry.
Motor cable CF35.UL.25.04
Motor cable CF38.250.04
Using the CF38 in practice
Cable failures are certainly never desirable. However, a cable failure in crane and trolley travel is unthinkable. Reliability and maximum safety are required here. The motorised cables used are therefore exposed to major challenges. Temperatures from -40°C to +80°C are not uncommon. In addition, there are usually long travels and therefore high loads due to continuous use and dust. The motor cable used must be able to withstand all these conditions.
Motor cable CFROBOT7.25.04.C
Using the CFROBOT7 in practice
The aim of the test was to determine the service life of the twistable motor cable of the CFROBOT7 robot cable family. The CFROBOT7 is required to reliably withstand continuous movement, such as in a robot with a torsion of +/- 180°, as found in the automotive industry.
In these applications, it is often the case that the robots are constantly in motion and therefore the cables are constantly exposed to this torsion. Thanks to a folded overall shield and the robust PUR outer jacket, this cable is ideal for use in 3D movements.
