If placing cable in a cableveyor or flexible tube, make sure it does not twist around. Also, make sure the cables have some
freedom of movement and are not bunched up (cable should not project out at bending points).
8
The amount of cable placed inside a cableveyor should
be about 60% of the space capacity of the cableveyor.
9
Do not mix the signal line with a high voltage circuit.

In a case where the cable will be subject to forced bending, always use robot cable.
Absorption material
(when the cable bends
and there is pressure
from the outside signal
line, this absorbs the in-
ner and outer difference)
Signal line
(flat cable, etc.)
* When to use Robot Cable
When assembling two or three axes and connecting cable to the moving parts, bending weight will be repeatedly applied to the
base of the cable. In this case, the cable core is very likely to snap. To prevent this from happening, we strongly recommend the
use of robot cable which has greatly improved capacity to withstand bending.
