LAPP have developed cables specifically for robot applications that transmit control and monitoring signals as well as power. These cables have the ability to withstand extreme twisting and bending stresses.

Cables and connectors used in production-critical and production automation applications can withstand a great deal if specifiers choose the right materials. But this choice is a science in itself, particularly in the food, beverage, dairy and meat industries, because the world of connection technology offers all kinds of materials and combinations. This article sheds some light on tricky issues encountered by global automation technology and cable technology leader LAPP Group.

With rapid growth in data communication through Industry 4.0, companies are increasingly opting for Ethernet connection solutions - which, however, have to meet different requirements to those in the office. Speed is not the most important factor: Demand for simple and cost-effective solutions is also increasing, as is demand for hybrid connections. Wireless standards, however, remain a niche in factories, says Guido Ege, Head of Product Management and Development at global automation technology and cable technology leader LAPP.
