Savings on cables with the price check
Tech up, cost down. It's our job.

Choose cost-effective PVC instead of PUR

As a jacket material, PUR (polyurethane) has decisive advantages in some areas, but not in all. Our goal is to enable you to objectively decide whether a cable with a PVC jacket is not only sufficient but also perhaps the better solution.

Practical chainflex application examples

Today, servo cables are the standard for drive technology in automation and machine construction. The movements which cables are subjected to in these industries are associated with great mechanical stress. Furthermore, cables are often used in environments where moisture, oil, dust or swarf is common. That is why choosing the right jacket material is critical. To ensure constant jacket material quality, our cables are tested time and again under real-world conditions so that a binding guarantee can be granted or the service life calculated online. The cables are tested in both short-term batch tests and long-term service life tests.
 
Example of long-term test 3841a on a CF21 series servo cable (PVC jacket) with a test bend factor of only 6.1xd and 54 million strokes completed.

But this choice of jacket quality is available not only for our servo cables, but also for all our other cable types, such as measuring system cables, bus cables, control cables etc. They, too, have been tested in our test laboratory.
