PMA Cable Protection System for Automation has been conceived to protect cables and wires in extreme automation and robotic installations. Through different conduit types for various requirements, system supports and a range of special accessories, torsion can be avoided and the stresses upon the cables reduced to a minimum. Special conduit designs, supports and abrasion protection sleeves provide optimal protection along the entire length of all moving elements, enabling engineers to achieve a massive reduction in torsion forces.
From the research stage to practical architectural application, this is the first time that a large-scale architecture project has been implemented using ABB robots and PMA cable protection products.
XTPC Highly flexible multilayer conduit For robotic applications with heavy torsion on axis 6 or 4. Designed for highly dynamic applications with narrow bending radii, featuring wear indication function. XR90 very flexible multilayer conduit For robotics and automation applications subject to mechanical wear and elongation created by the movement of axis 2 and/or 5, featuring wear indication function. ESD Highly flexible conduit For robotic applications with multi-axial movements. Specially suitable for tight bending-radii. BSH Tube clamp Serves as a fixation for functional inserts BSSK Ball-joint half shells Providing additional freedom of movement for corrugated conduits fixed in BSH automation tube clamps.
BSS/BSV protection sleeve Abrasion protection for corrugated conduits in positions exposed to chafing BTK Ball joint sleeve Offers additional flexibility and reduces mechanical stress on the conduit BKE Ball joint termination Offers highest flexibility at the end of the installation BGN slide half-shell Insert/reduction insert in combination with tube clamp SH BTR Strain relief insert To fix the conduit against axial movements in TK ball joint sleeves
