A new high-flex cable boasts of performance to 10 million cycles of continuous flexing, bending and twisting motion. Flexlife-10 cable is designed for transmitting power and signals to factory automation equipment in the automotive, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and electronics industries. Common applications include cable carriers, robotic welding, assembly, and material handling applications. The design includes cable jackets made of thermoplastic elastomer and polyurethane, Teflon flex facilitator, and finely stranded custom alloy conductors. The design generates less heat as the cable flexes. Flexlife-10 cables come with molded cordsets using industry standard connections or as spooled cable supplied in 30m, 100m, or 200m lengths. Operating temperature ranges from -40°C to +105°C. Jacket designs come in oil, water and abrasion resistant PUR and TPE with up to 19 conductors. TURCK INC., Minneapolis, MN. (800) 544-7769.
