Robotic Profinet cable offers increased data transmission rates in real-time
Helukabel recently announced that it has added a new PROFINET cable to its broad portfolio of Industrial Ethernet cables – HELUKAT PROFINET Type R Torsion. PROFINET standards have traditionally be divided into three classifications – Type A, B and C. However, a new type has recently been added, Type R, which is designated for robotic […]
Intelligent cable allows predictive maintenance on moving cables
Leuze electronic presents a concrete innovation towards powering Industry 4.0 applications with its new Smart Core cable. With the smart factory revolution on the horizon, the Smart Core cable enables an innovative predictive maintenance measure specifically for applications with moving cables (i.e handling robots, welding robots, moving cables). The cable contains an additional, special sacrificial […]
Free cable management dresspack configurator simplifies selection
igus has developed a new robot dresspack configurator, a free online tool that can be used to find the ideal cable management system for virtually every robot available on the market. Energy supply systems, which are capable of high-performance, three-dimensional movements reliably protect cables and hoses during the highly dynamic motions of industrial robots. Many […]
AutomationDirect adds continuous flexing control cable
Continuous flexing control cable is now part of the AutomationDirect bulk multiconductor wiring and cable product line. Continuous flexing cables are designed to be exposed to constant flexing during their operation and withstand millions of these flex cycles. CF5 and CF6 multi-conductor control cables from igus are specifically designed, tested, and manufactured for continuous flexing, […]
AutomationDirect adds continuous flexing industrial Cat5e Ethernet cable
DataMax Extreme Ethernet cable from Quabbin has a specially designed jacket developed to survive the many industrial hazards that commercial jackets will not. The DataMax cable jacket is pressure extruded over the cable core, “locking” the conductor pairs in place. This type of jacket construction provides very stable electrical performance, even when impacted, bent, or […]
What is cable corkscrewing?
Cable corkscrewing is exactly what it sounds like—damage to a cable that causes it to look just like a corkscrew, with small tight twists rather than a circular, smooth design. It occurs most often in motion applications, where constant flexing and repetitive motions can cause stress and deform the cable, often destroying the core. As […]
New harnessed robotic dress packs from igus now available for quick replacement and installation
igus now offers standard “readychain” ready-to-use robotic dress packs for simple installation as well as multi-axis cable guidance and protection. In automated plants and other manufacturing facilities, downtime creates a critical situation. Once production stops, every minute counts, making new standard, fully-assembled dress packs for industrial robots an ideal solution to get systems back up […]
igus introduces Triflex RSE system
igus’ new Triflex RSE system prevents looping of the cable carrier, allowing power, data and media to be safely supplied to the end of the robotic arm. The system was designed for use with the Triflex R line of cable carriers from igus, which are available in a variety of diameters and styles. A large range of mounting […]
CAT.6A cables for continuous flex and torsion applications
ETHERLINE CAT.6A cables from Lapp Group North America, Florham Park, N.J., provide fast data transmission rates in industrial Ethernet systems while withstanding the continuous flex or torsion requirements associated with moving machine applications. These cables combine CAT.6A’s 10 Gbit/sec data transfer rates with continuous flex and torsion performance suitable for robotics, machine vision systems, wind turbines […]
