High Flex Cable

To maintain high-speed transmission and high durability at the same time, the digital interface cable for machine vision should consider its wiring and laying. And when it comes to moving requirements in a machine or equipment, the high flex cable, highly flexible cable, or continuous flex cable will be required as the key component to withstand extreme flexing conditions.

COMOSS is a professional manufacturer with excellent capability to customize the high flex cable, or so-called highly flexible cable, or high-performance cable, and continuous flex cable. COMOSS provides a wide range of highly flexible cables to cope with different aspects and working environments, such as situations from bending, sliding, and twisting preferences.

To make the best of the highly flexible cable and to improve the cable life and extend its stability, here are some tips for setting up the highly flexible cable in a moving situation or robotic graded machinery.  

To prevent unexpected disconnection accidents, the bending radius of a constantly motion cable or continuous flex cable should be at least 7.5 times the cable outer diameter and should be as large as possible. The minimum request will be at least more than 4 times, whether it is braided coaxial cable, PE (PVC) sheath cable, or (no shield) cable with braided shield.

The high flex cable or the ultra-flex cable is suggested to be placed in a cable carrier or drag chain in a flat state. Please make sure that cables do not cross each other or overlap. Keep the cables clean and with a sufficient margin in the partition plate to avoid interference between the cables.

Make sure each one of the high flex cables comes with the optimum cable length when installing in any situation, and the cable carrier or drag chain. If the cable is too short, it will become clumped during the process, and the cable and carrier rub against each other, resulting in troubles such as scraping of the sheath. On the contrary, if it goes too long, the cable life will be shortened due to the scraped sheath, and it will easily interfere with other cables, etc.

Do not fix the highly flexible cable in the middle or the moving portion of it.
Please fix the cable to a non-moving part, especially located on both ends of the cable carrier.

When placing cables with greatly different outer diameters, separate them by placing a partition plate between them. Thus, the cable with a small outer diameter will not be damaged by the load from a cable with a large outer diameter.

The highlight of the high flexibility and performance is the latest released version of flexing cable with over 10 million bending life cycles, and even thinner outer diameter. The characteristic of its durability is also at least doubled from COMOSS original, well-reputed high flex cable with millions of bending abilities. COMOSS offers high flex cables in the following technical specifications and characteristics. 
The high flex bulk cable is highly developed with the associated partner OKI from Japan.
