1.7 Cabling
x The standard extension cables have excellent flexibility to withstand fatigue from flexural loads, but they are not
robot cables. Therefore, avoid storing the standard extension cables in movable cable ducts laid at a small radius.
If they must be stored in movable cable ducts, use robot cables.
x In an application where the cable cannot be fixed, keep the cable from receiving a deflecting load exceeding its
own weight, use a self-standing cable hose, provide a large bending radius along the wiring path, or provide other
measure to minimize the load applied to the cable.
x Do not cut the cable for the purpose of extension, length reduction or reconnection.
If you intend to change the cable layout, please consult IAI.
