Moveable Cables

RMFEV-SB (2517)
RMCV-SB (2464)
RMFEV-SB
RMCV-SB
RMBT, etc

Model Designations

Cable Type
RM Stands for robot cable movable
0.08mm or 0.05mm wire is used for the conductor to ensure cable flexibility.
  Insulation Types
  FE ETFE insulation
Optimal for movable cables for its smooth surface and rigidity.
Nonflammable and extensible, and effective even for smaller bending radius.
  C Cross-linked PE insulation
Smooth on the surface and strong. Because of its good electrical properties, this insulation is suitable when impedance needs to be considered.
    Jacket Types
    V Vinyl jacket
Flame-retardant and oil-resistant materials are used.
    U Urethane jacket
Because of its excellent mechanical strength, this jacket is effective when cable routing or when friction with equipment is a concern.
    S Special jacket using smooth PVC
      Shield Types  
      SB Braided shield
Copper wires are applied around the cable like a net. (Density 80% or higher)
      SW Winding shield
Copper wires are spirally wrapped around the cable. Less shielding effectiveness than a braided shield.
      SBX Special shield of high flexibility
Flat Type
RMBT Built-in cable track
        UL Style No.
        (2517) UL-standard compliance style No.
Cables conform to the following styles with the combination of insulation and sheath materials.
        FE V   2464 (80ºC,300V) 25517 (105ºC,300V) 2570 (80ºC,600V) 2586 (105ºC,600V)
        FE U   20936 (80ºC,300V) 20939 (80ºC,600V)
        C V SB 2464 (80ºC,300V) 2570 (80ºC,600V)
        C U SB 20936 (80ºC,300V) 20939 (80ºC,600V)

Stationary Cables

RSVV-SB
RSEV-SLA, etc.

Model Designations

Cable Type
RS Stands for robot cable stationary (for fixed wiring)
Stationary cable for which 0.12mm or 0.18mm wire is used as the conductor.
  Insulation Types
  V PVC insulation
Stationary cable for which 0.12mm or 0.18mm wire is used as the conductor.
  E PE insulation
SBecause of its good electrical properties, this insulation is suitable when impedance needs to be considered.
    Jacket Types
    V Vinyl jacket
Flame retardant and oil-resistant materials are used.
    U Urethane jacket
Because of its excellent mechanical strength, this jacket is effective when cable routing or when friction with equipment is a concern.
      Shield Types
      SB Braided shield
Copper wires are applied around the cable like a net. (Density 80% or higher)
      SW Winding shield
Copper wires are spirally wrapped around the cable. Less shielding effectiveness than a braided shield.
      SLA Al / PET tape shield
Al / PET tape is wrapped around the cable in layers.
Drain wire may be inserted as needed.
