igus Launches New DeviceNet Cable for ±360°/m Torsion
igus has expanded its CFROBOT8.PLUS series with a new DeviceNet bus cable (CFROBOT8.PLUS.030) designed for highly dynamic robotic applications requiring ±360°/m torsion .
Key Specifications:
Torsion Rating: ±360°/m
Guaranteed Service Life: 10 million cycles
Outer Diameter Reduction: Up to 21% smaller than previous CFROBOT8 series
Shielding: Tinned copper braiding for reliable data transmission
Environment: Oil-resistant and UV-resistant for indoor/outdoor use
The cable features a special shielding braid resembling a knitting pattern, which allows greater freedom of movement during extreme torsion . "This is a decisive advantage, particularly for applications in confined spaces," explains Rainer Rössel, Head of Business Unit chainflex Cables at igus . The series covers all common bus systems including Profinet, Profibus, CAN bus, and Ethernet up to CAT7, available in lengths starting at one metre with no minimum order quantity
