1. Materials and Structural Parameters

Shanghai Suoqi TPU Polyurethane Cable Product Details 1. Core Product Advantages (1) TPU Material Properties Wear and Tear Resistance: The TPU sheath has wear resistance more than 5 times that of natural rubber (Taber abrasion value ≤0.5mg), suitable for high-friction scenarios such as mines and ports, with no significant wear after long-term use, reducing maintenance costs.

High flexibility: The conductor is made of ultra-fine copper wire strands, resistant to high-frequency bending (≥5 million cycles, bending radius ≤6× outer diameter), suitable for drag chain systems, industrial robots, and other high-frequency motion equipment. During bending, the conductor does not break, and the insulation layer does not crack.

Environmental corrosion resistance: Resistant to oil, acid and alkali, and seawater (customizable), can operate stably at -40℃ to 80℃, maintains elasticity at low temperatures, and adapts to harsh environments such as oil contamination, humidity, and extreme temperatures (e.g., chemical workshops, marine engineering).

Tear and tensile resistance: Built-in high-strength tensile fibers (such as Kevlar), tensile strength ≥1000N, resist equipment dragging and heavy pulling forces, ensuring the reliability of cables for mobile equipment (AGVs, cranes).

(2) Structural Design: Multi-strand oxygen-free copper wire finely twisted (in accordance with VDE0295 CLASS 6 standard), with excellent conductivity and low resistance loss.

Optional partial shielding, total shielding (tinned copper wire braid, shielding density ≥85%), effectively isolates electromagnetic interference, ensuring the pure transmission of signals (such as servo motors, robot control signals).

Special TPU material, wear-resistant, weather-resistant, anti-aging, smooth appearance, easy to wire and install.

2. Application Scenarios Industrial Automation: Robot cables (bend-resistant, anti-interference), production line drag chain cables (high flexibility, wear-resistant), improving equipment accuracy and stability.

Mobile equipment: AGV, forklift, aerial work platform cables (tensile and wear resistant, suitable for frequent movement); mining machinery, port crane cables (resistant to sand and stone wear, and harsh environments).

Specialized fields: marine exploration (resistant to seawater and salt spray), low-temperature operations (flexible at -40°C), oil-contaminated workshops (resistant to oil corrosion), meeting the customized needs of multiple industries.

2. Performance Technical Indicators

Rated voltage 300/500V to 0.6/1kV; minimum bending radius 6D (D is the outer diameter of the cable); applicable temperature range -40℃ to 90℃; high tensile strength, excellent wear resistance, and long-term stable operation under harsh conditions such as oil contamination and humidity.

3. Application Scenarios

Polyurethane cables are widely used in industrial automation, lifting and transportation, ports, and terminals.
