Test reports of the fibre optic cables

Using the CFROBOT5 in practice

The CFROBOT5 robot cable family's fibre optic cable is always immediately associated with a six-axis articulated robot because torsion is so important in that application. But the cable has other uses as well – customers very often have to transmit sensitive signals. Such signals come from actuators that are guided in free, unspecified movements, and torsion also plays a role there. Extremely precise measurements produce an incredible amount of data, which can be transported most reliably (and interference-free) with a FOC. The challenge is to cushion the sensitive glass-fibre element in the cable such that it cannot be damaged, while of course also doing so permanently.

Use of the CFLG in practice

An extremely compact chain system including a guide for easy installation. This is what door manufacturers, manufacturers of animation equipment for trade fairs and the mechanical engineering industry were looking for. We responded with our microflizz, which uses a FOC so that data can be transmitted in very small installation spaces. Our CFLG.LB. is a cable family that can reliably transmit data in small bend radii and on long travels. Thanks to its abrasion-resistant outer jacket made of TPE, it can do this very well in the long term.
