New chainflex® hybrid cable

Suitable for Siemens drives S210

Product portfolio addition to the CF280.UL.H cable series

With the new hybrid cable CF280.UL.H304 in the cross sections (4G1.5+(2x1.5)C+(4xAWG26)C)C and (4G2.5+(2x1.5)C+(4xAWG26)C)C you get the precise main cross sections for your Siemens drives that you need. It is suitable for applications up to a bend radius of 10xd across all industrial sectors from the machine tool and automotive industry up to intralogistics. Short harnessing and assembly times, long service life, low maintenance, cost savings and simple handling - these are the hallmarks of our hybrid cable.

With 26 different types of hybrid cables already, igus® has the largest portfolio of hybrid cables in energy chains. igus is proud to expand our catalog to include this new hybrid cable, with all its advantages (4 year guarantee, no minimum order quantity, no cutting charge and numerous approvals & standards). With the new CF280.UL.H304 chainflex hybrid cable, users with Siemens motors can now source yet more drive cables for use in the energy chain.

What should I pay attention to with hybrid cables for e-chain?

hybrid cable

When combining the servo and encoder cables into one hybrid cable , it is important to ensure the necessary data transfer specifications and interference-free operation of the cable for many millions of cycles. A secure transmission of the bus signals to maximum cable length with many motion cycles in the energy chain, poses special requirements for the structure of the bus cores.
