Tech Note: Understanding Cable Stress and Failure in High Flex Applications
Technical Information
Cable stress has a direct impact on the reliability of automation equipment. Understanding what causes cables to fail in high-flexing applications allows us to take appropriate precautions during the design phase to optimize the system's reliability.
Overview
Cables used in automation applications can be subjected to severe mechanical stress such as continuous flexing, high-speed motion, high tensile loads, flying chips and sparks, and other challenging environmental conditions. GORE® High Flex Round Cables have a robust construction that provides reliable mechanical and environmental protection in these complex environments. Gore’s cables deliver reliable signal integrity with lower attenuation and capacitance for high-speed data transmission over longer distances.
GORE® High Flex Round Cables deliver excellent signal integrity and high flex life in a small, lightweight package.
With a prove flex life, our cables deliver long service life compared to traditional round cables commonly used in the industry. They’re easy to install too because of the small, lightweight construction with greater flexibility and tight bend radius. The result — reduced downtime, maintenance and total costs over the equipment lifecycle.
Applications
GORE High Flex Round Cables are engineered to perform reliably in a variety of automation applications, including:
- handheld industrial tools
- material handling/cranes
- nuclear power and waste processing
- office automation
- pick and place/linear motion
- rail transportation
- robots
- storage and warehousing
- vision inspection
- wafer manufacturing/handling
