Service life:41 million strokes

cfbus application

This test assessed the expected service life of the CFBUS.052 in an e-chain with a 100mm radius.

The aim of the test was to determine the service life of the chainflex bus cable in a radius of 100mm with a travel of up to 7 metres. This Ethernet cable is required to ensure reliable data transmission over the longest possible service life despite constant movement.
The demand for quality in combination with a small bend radius is particularly prevalent in industrial machines and applications that have to process a large amount of data. In addition, small installation spaces are often a major challenge for the durability of the cables.

The cable's service life was tested in our laboratory. The cable was mounted in an energy chain with a radius of 100mm and a strain relief on both ends of the e-chain. Continuous movement simulated the stress in the machine so that an exact evaluation can be given for use in the real world.
