High-Flex Bending Encoder Cable, 8 / 10 / 12-Core Twisted Pair, Shielded Cable for Servo Motors and Drag-Chain Electrical Equipment

The High-Flex Bending Encoder Cable is a precision signal solution engineered for servo motors and dynamic drag-chain systems. Utilizing Class 6 ultra-fine oxygen-free copper conductors, it ensures stable feedback transmission through millions of high-speed bending cycles. The internal architecture (as seen in Images 1-6) combines high-density shielding with optimized core stranding to eliminate electromagnetic interference (EMI) and prevent mechanical fatigue in multi-axis robotic and CNC environments.

Key Features & Configurations:

  • Advanced Shielding: Features a dual-layer system with a tinned copper braid (>85% coverage) and aluminum foil to block high-frequency noise (Image 3, 5).

  • Precision Identification: Available with clear numerical core markings (Image 1) or color-coded twisted pairs (Image 2) for rapid, error-free installation.

  • Mechanical Endurance: Designed for tight-radius bending and high-frequency motion, resisting the “corkscrew effect” common in standard cables.

  • Industrial Ruggedness: Oil-resistant and abrasion-resistant TPU/PUR or PVC outer jackets (Image 4, 6) maintain flexibility from -40°C to +90°C.

  • Customized Layouts: Fully customizable core counts (8/10/12/20+), diameters, and internal strength members to match specific OEM requirements. 

 

High-Flex Bending Encoder Cable

8 / 10 / 12-Core Twisted Pair, Shielded Cable for Servo Motors and Drag-Chain Electrical Equipment

In modern automation systems, signal accuracy is only as reliable as the cable carrying it. Shanghai Rousheng’s High-Flex Bending Encoder Cable is engineered for continuous motion environments where repeated bending, torsion, and electrical noise are unavoidable. Designed specifically for servo motors, feedback systems, and drag-chain applications, this cable delivers stable encoder signals even under long-term dynamic stress.

Designed for Continuous Bending and Signal Stability

Unlike standard control cables, a High-Flex Bending Encoder Cable must endure thousands—often millions—of movement cycles without conductor fatigue or signal degradation. This product is built around finely stranded copper conductors, precision twisted pairs, and a multi-layer shielding system that minimizes EMI while maintaining exceptional flexibility.

The internal structure shown in the product images reflects a deliberate engineering balance: mechanical endurance on the outside, electrical integrity at the core.
