Igus Launches New DeviceNet Cable Designed for Dynamic Robotic Applications

<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="/ueditor/php/upload/image/20261102/1793625355458976.png" title="1793625355458976.png" alt="1.png"/></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Igus has expanded its CFROBOT8.PLUS robot cable family with a new DeviceNet cable designed to handle up to ±360°/m of torsion in dynamic robotic applications. The CFROBOT8.PLUS family is engineered for up to 10 million torsional cycles, with a specialized shield design that provides flexibility during continuous robotic movement. The cables also feature a reduced outer diameter — up to 21 percent smaller than previous CFROBOT8 models — making them a good fit for tight spaces.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">A tinned-copper braided shield helps maintain signal integrity under demanding conditions, while oil and UV resistance enables reliable use in both indoor and outdoor environments.<br/>Igus’ new DeviceNet cable is suited to a wide range of applications including six-axis robots, handling systems, machine tools, linear and lead screw systems and other applications with continuous torsional movement.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">The CFROBOT8.PLUS family also includes cables for PROFINET, PROFIBUS, CAN bus and Ethernet applications up to CAT7, giving users options across a wide range of industrial communication systems. Like all chainflex cables, CFROBOT8.PLUS cables are tested in Igus’s 5,500-square-meter laboratory under simulated real-world robotic motion. Testing has demonstrated reliable electrical performance through more than 15 million cycles.</span></p><p><br/></p>
