Special cables
The CFSPECIAL cable group was developed by us to cater for special applications or a specific customer group. For special moving applications that go beyond normal cable carrier applications, only special cables can usually be used. However, this always means a minimum production quantity, which is usually unrealistic for maintenance customers or very small applications. The special thing about the CFSPECIAL family is that it is available as a catalogue cable and can therefore be supplied quickly. This programme is naturally much narrower, but can be quickly expanded by us at any time. If you cannot find the right cable for your specific application, please contact us directly.
Portrait of special cables
To give you an overview of what is already possible today, we will briefly introduce you to all our cable families, which you will find in the special cables section. We want to constantly adapt this area to the wishes of our customers and are open to new challenges - challenge us. You can find more information in our blog
Thermocouple compensating lead: A thermocouple compensating lead is the connection between a thermocouple and a measuring device. The thermocouple compensating lead must be made of the same materials as the thermocouple. Otherwise the measurement would be falsified due to unwanted additional thermoelectric voltages.
CFFLAT: This cable has been specially developed for small installation spaces where large wire cross-sections are still required. We use a flat cable design with a braided conductor in the core.
cable for high tensile strength applications: Part number CFSPECIAL.182 is our high tensile strength cable. With built-in aramid braiding in the outer jacket, this cable can withstand a tensile force that is 15,000% higher than the standard.
7th axis cable: A cable for supplying the entire robot when it is mounted on a so-called 7th axis. This is the axis that allows the robot to move along with the workpiece. The cable structures correspond to the electrical specifications of the robot manufacturer.

Solution for high tensile strain
The tensile force that may act on a cable is described in the standard DIN VDE 0298 Part 3 Point 7.1. In simplified terms, this states that according to VDE it is permissible to load the cable with a tensile force of 15N per 1mm main core. This means, for example, that a cable with a 4G1.0 structure may be subjected to a force of 4x1x15N, i.e. 60N. It does not matter whether this force is generated, for example, by a spring used to tension the cable or by the weight of a freely suspended cable. If higher forces occur, these must be absorbed by an external load-bearing element. This is what we do with the CFSPECIAL.182. A special support braid is moulded into its two-layer outer jacket, which absorbs incredible forces of up to 15,000% above the standard. This has been proven by a free-hanging Ethernet cable over 11 floors for many years. Here you will find the application that may outline a solution for you.
