Learn about flat cables
Date: Dec 4th, 2024
Shanghai Shenghua Cable Technology Group tells you: As a kind of multi-core cable, flat cable was first used in electronic computers and electronic instruments. Because of its advantages such as easy bending and small wiring space, it is also used in telephones, tape recorders and other civilian appliances. Be widely used. In order to meet different usage requirements, some new flat cables are constantly being developed. The application of insulation displacement connectors makes the termination of flat cables extremely convenient and reliable. At the same time, it also places higher requirements on geometric dimensions such as line-to-line center distance tolerance, center distance cumulative error and insulation thickness of flat cables, thus making flat cables manufacturing increases the difficulty.
Flat cables are suitable for mobile electrical power transmission lines and control, lighting, communication channels such as lifting equipment, cable tracks, trolleys, transmission machinery, elevators, cranes, tower cranes, telescopic machinery and equipment in special places, and can also be used in closed indoor environments. Connection and installation of moving mechanical parts, etc. Compared with round cables, flat cables have the advantages of saving installation space and cost, and when the number of core wires is the same, their bending radius is smaller than that of round cables.
Flat cable performance:
1. The conductive core of the flat cable adopts a soft structure. Shanghai Shenghua Cable ensures that the flat cable has good softness and good performance. The insulation and protective layer materials are made of butylene polymer to improve the softness, anti-corrosion and cold-resistant properties of the flat cable. The insulated cores are color-coded to facilitate the laying and installation of flat cables. According to customer needs, steel wire ropes or other load-bearing components can be added to both sides of the flat cable core. At the same time, the coaxial cable can also be made into an elevator flat cable for communication.
2. Flexible flat cable is a kind of stranded copper wire wrapped with insulating material. The flexible flat cable of Shanghai Shenghua Cable is a flat cable made of sheath material pressed through the high-tech automation equipment production line. It has soft, It has the advantages of bending and folding at will, relatively thin thickness, small size, simple connection, and convenient disassembly. The number and spacing of wires can be selected arbitrarily, making wiring more convenient, greatly reducing the volume of the product, reducing production costs, and improving production efficiency. It is suitable for use as data transmission cables or power transmission in electrical equipment.
