Product Introduction
The high-altitude vehicle cable series launched by Shanghai Suoqi Electric Wire & Cable Co., Ltd. is specially designed for power supply and signal transmission for aerial work vehicles, lift platforms, and both articulated and scissor-type aerial vehicles. These cables are frequently bent and wound as the equipment's boom extends and retracts on the reel, while also being exposed to outdoor UV, rain, and wind loads over long periods. Therefore, they are specifically designed with flexibility, tensile strength, wear resistance, and weather resistance in mind. They are widely used in municipal street lighting, construction, power maintenance, and venue upkeep, and can be customized according to cross-section, number of cores, and winding method.
Operating Condition Pain Point Analysis
Cable failures on aerial vehicles usually manifest as power outages during lifting, control failures, or insulation alarms, with root causes mainly in the following areas. First, winding fatigue and breakage. Cables repeatedly unwind and unwind with reels, bypassing pulleys, resulting in small bending radii and high frequency. Ordinary cable conductors quickly develop metal fatigue and core breakage, resulting in intermittent power outages. Second, self-weight and tensile damage. During high-altitude work, cables are suspended vertically for a long time, and the tension generated by their own weight and boom movement acts entirely on the conductor, causing the core wire to stretch and break, and the sheath to bulge. Third, sheath wear. Friction between the cable and boom and pulleys causes the sheath to break and cause water ingress and short circuits. Fourth, outdoor aging. Ultraviolet rays and temperature differences cause ordinary sheaths to crack and powder, and insulation degrades after water ingress. Fifth, hardening at low temperatures. During winter construction, cable sheaths harden, making them more prone to cracking during winding and deteriorating bending performance.
Product Technology Analysis
From the perspective of raw material selection, the conductors of aerial vehicle cables use multi-strand ultra-fine copper wire with small pitch re-twisting, offering high softness and a small bending radius, capable of withstanding frequent winding without easily fatigue breakage. The insulation layer uses flexible heat-resistant materials to ensure it does not become brittle in low-temperature environments. The sheath is made of wear-resistant and weather-resistant polyurethane or special elastomer materials, balancing UV resistance, oil resistance, and low-temperature resistance. To withstand vertical suspension and winding tension, the cable contains load-bearing elements such as aramid yarn or galvanized steel wire, so the tension is borne by reinforcements and protects the conductor from tensile damage.
From the perspective of production cable forming processes, conductor retwisting adopts optimal pitch design, balancing softness and fatigue resistance; Load-bearing elements are placed at the center of the cable core or symmetrically distributed to ensure even force distribution and no twisting during retraction and release. During cable formation, twist and add filler and tape at small pitches to control roundness and avoid local stress concentration during winding. Sheath extrusion uses an extrusion process, tightly bonding with the cable core to prevent delamination. Extrusion temperature and cooling gradient are precisely controlled to ensure a smooth, wear-resistant surface free of air holes. If necessary, a braided reinforcement layer is added to enhance tear resistance. Before leaving the factory, tests are conducted batch by batch on winding bending life, tensile strength, low-temperature bending, and UV resistance to ensure long-term reliability in high-altitude outdoor conditions.
