Robotics brings new levels of efficiency, safety and precision to manufacturing. Cables act as the lifeline for robotics, but they are easy to overlook among all the other important considerations.

Without proper planning, poor cable performance can be one of the biggest causes of downtime and failure in robotics applications. Thinking about cable upfront will put you one step ahead when it comes to time savings, productivity and the bottom line.

Alpha Wire designs cables that address the distinctive challenges associated with articulated, linear, collaborative, AGV, SCARA and delta robot applications. The result: cable solutions that perform under extremely high stress.

Managing Motion
One of the factors that sets robotics and automation applications apart is the constant movement: tilting, rotating and hard stopping and starting. Alpha Wire’s dynamic flexing designs support continuous flex, acceleration, multi-axis and rolling flex motions to ensure that cables continue to perform while they move for increased reliability and uptime.

Reducing Space & Weight
Advancements in automation and artificial intelligence are driving innovation within the world of manufacturing—and also driving down the size of technology. These innovations call for smaller, lightweight solutions that are easy to handle and don’t weigh components down. Our cables are available in compact designs to support smaller footprints and reduce load on moving components to improve safety while gaining tighter, more precise control.

Enduring Vibration & Abrasion 
Even if your industrial environment seems stable, vibration is likely impacting your cables. This continuous or rapid movement—no matter how slight—can jar connections, generate noise and crosstalk, and create abrasion. 

Alpha Wire’s abrasion-resistant jacket compounds absorb shock, impact and vibration while also resisting cut-through and physical damage. This minimizes the amount of time you spend replacing worn-out or damaged cables due to abrasion.

Lowering Costs and Increasing Productivity

Alpha Wire's Material Handling solutions help you solve the tough problems of EMI control, protection from the elements, and the ability to withstand the stresses of continuous flexing. Rely on Alpha Wire products to elevate your production from ordinary to high performance.

7 Common Causes of High-Flex Cable Failure

All cables—even high-flex cables—eventually wear out and need to be replaced, no matter how well they’re designed or installed. But when high-flex cables are mishandled, improperly installed, or used in the wrong application, they’ll wear out faster than you anticipate. Read our white paper to learn how you can avoid these 7 common causes of failure and prevent downtime in your automation systems.
