New Nexans cable copes with the extreme dynamics of modern machine automation

25 November 2009

Nexans has introduced its MOTIONLINE range of cables for highly dynamic industrial automation applications. The conductor and insulation materials used in this new range provide the fire and heat resistance demanded for safety and performance, as well as offering resistance to oils and other chemicals.

Important new material technologies developed by Nexans include the outstanding TPM (Thermoplastic Modified) insulation as well as the new flame retardant PUR Medoxprotect-S jacket material. The very latest example is a new generation of servo motor cables designed for extreme dynamic loads. This cable will operate at speeds of up to 300m/min and at an acceleration ten times greater than the maximum for the previous standard servo cable.
