Hybrid cables are transforming the way automation systems are designed—especially in servomotor applications. Instead of using separate cables for power and feedback (such as encoder or resolver signals), hybrid cables integrate both into one streamlined solution. Leading manufacturers like Siemens, Bosch Rexroth, Allen Bradley, and B&R are already embracing this technology.
A leading manufacturer of woodworking machines faced a critical challenge: the cables within their systems needed to endure continuous motion under extremely tight bending radii. To validate performance under these demanding conditions, igus conducted a rigorous service life test. As part of the solution, igus also upgraded the manufacturer’s drive technology to incorporate the latest Beckhoff hybrid cable systems.
