In today’s high-speed, high-precision industrial environments, power chains—also known as energy chains or drag chains—play a critical role in keeping moving machines connected. These cable carriers protect and guide cables through repetitive motion, ensuring consistent power and signal delivery to dynamic components like servo motors.
But not just any cable can survive the intense mechanical demands of power chain systems. It takes a uniquely engineered solution—flexible enough to move continuously, durable enough to withstand wear, and precise enough to maintain signal and power integrity. That’s where LAPP’s servo cables for power chain applications come into play.
Why Standard Cables Fail in Power Chain Applications
Power chains introduce constant movement—sometimes millions of cycles per year. This motion causes:
• Bending and torsional stress
• Abrasion inside the cable carrier
• Exposure to oils, heat, and vibration
• Risk of insulation breakdown or conductor fatigue
Standard cables, not designed for dynamic applications, often suffer from cracked insulation, EMC issues, or internal wire breaks—leading to machine downtime and costly repairs.
To maintain machine uptime and performance, you need servo cables specifically engineered for continuous flex and mechanical endurance. And LAPP delivers exactly that.
The LAPP Advantage: Cables Built for Motion
With decades of expertise in motion cable technology, LAPP has created a robust range of servo cables optimized for energy chain systems. These cables combine:
• Extreme flexibility
• Long service life
• High torsional and bend resistance
• Superior EMC shielding
• Outstanding chemical and abrasion resistance
Here’s how LAPP servo cables deliver unbeatable performance in power chain applications.
LAPP’s ÖLFLEX® SERVO FD (Flexible Drive) cable series is purpose-built for servo motors operating in dynamic drag chain systems. Key features include:
• Fine-wire copper stranding for maximum flexibility
• Special PVC or PUR outer sheaths for oil, coolant, and abrasion resistance
• Torsional strength up to ±180°/m, ideal for multi-axis robotic systems
• Tested for millions of cycles in chain applications
Whether your application involves packaging machines, gantry systems, or automated assembly lines, these cables keep power flowing without interruption.
In servo systems, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is critical. The ÖLFLEX® SERVO FD ZeroCM cables feature:
• Innovative symmetrical conductor design to eliminate common mode interference
• Triple shielding (pair foil + braid + overall braid) for maximum EMI suppression
• Reduced bearing currents in motors, extending motor life
• Precise signal transmission under high-speed operation
This is an ideal choice for high-frequency servo drives in precision applications like CNC, robotics, and semiconductor manufacturing.
To reduce cable complexity in fast-moving machinery, LAPP offers hybrid servo cables for power chains that combine:
• Power conductors for the motor
• Control pairs for brakes, temperature sensors, and encoders
• Shielded signal lines for interference-free data
This all-in-one solution is perfect for space-constrained drag chain systems in compact automation, logistics robots, or modular machinery.
Rigorously Tested.Proven to Perform.
LAPP servo cables are not just built to spec—they’re tested far beyond. Every cable designed for drag chain applications undergoes:
• Bending, torsion, and abrasion testing for millions of cycles
• EMC testing for compliance with strict industrial standards
• Thermal, oil, and chemical resistance testing
• Real-world simulation in LAPP’s in-house test facilities
This ensures you get maximum durability, reliability, and safety in every meter of cable.
