Cables for Robotics and Other Applications


Where extreme flexibility, long life and small conductors are necessary you will also need cables that can work in such environments. With modern nanotechnology comes the necessity to use robotics cable made from key conducting materials, high strength alloys and thin walled Teflon® wires. The smooth surfaces of robotic cables are designed specifically to prevent adhesion to adjoining cables.

However when your project requires new invention you may need to utilize the use of custom cables. Technology is changing more rapid than ever before, components are getting smaller while new space and air technology is expanding to reach further into space.

Another area where custom cables are required is in the development of defenses and in military use. In applications where the devices will be used by the military wires are required to withstand great pressures, low and high temperatures and other extremes. The military is not just for defenses but ever more for exploration. As the world has become more familiar we are now moving into uncharted extremes such as the polar ice caps, extreme ocean depths and outer space.

Also in the field of medicine, we have been growing into more detail and microscopic areas. With the implication of nanotechnology in medicine, medical cables are being required to perform in tight places, smaller technology and with enhanced outcome. With the enhancements of minimally invasive medical procedures techniques have been developed to use precise surgical instruments with the help of image guided tools such as miniature cameras.

Other areas where custom cables are required is in the development of cell phones, laptop computers, flat screen television, HD technology and underwater exploration. It is no wonder that with the advancement of all technologies comes the necessity for more advance, ever changing and adaptable cable and conductor technology.
