01 / CONFIGURATION DIRECTIONS
Select a configuration from the application boundaries
These configurations establish a practical discussion starting point. The final product requires a controlled specification based on interface, length, installation and validation conditions.
Antistatic version
For ESD-sensitive packaging, inspection and pick-and-place tools.
Custom mounting version
Width, length and fixtures defined around travel, clamps and machine mounting points.
Match a solution direction to the link target
Solution codes support early technical discussions by aligning protocol, construction, link boundaries and application in one view.

03 / TYPICAL CONSTRUCTION
From functional core to terminated interface
Functional circuits
Signal, power, optical or pneumatic elements are combined as required.
Planar arrangement
Maintains element position and reduces coupling during motion.
Self-supporting structure
Material and geometry control sag, vibration and springback.
Low-friction surface
Reduces motion resistance and particle generation.
Mounting fixtures
End clamps, base plates and guides are co-designed with the cable.
