Shanghai Suoqi Cable Co., Ltd. has been deeply engaged in the field of special flexible cables. Below is a professional interpretation of flat cables from three dimensions: material structure, performance advantages, and application scenarios.

1. Materials and Structural Parameters

Shanghai Suoqi's steel-wire flat cables and flat power cables have excellent performance and a wide range of application scenarios. The related products are introduced as follows: Product models and structure: common models include YVFB, YVFBG, YFFB, YFFBG, etc. Among them, YVFB is a mobile flexible PVC-insulated nitrile (NBR) sheathed flat ribbon wire and cable; YVFBG is a flat ribbon wire and cable with double steel wires added on this basis; YFFB is a mobile flexible nitrile-insulated and nitrile-sheathed flat ribbon wire and cable, and YFFBG is its double steel wire version. The cable conductor is usually composed of finely stranded bundles of bare oxygen-free fine copper wires; the insulation material is high-quality PVC insulation compound or elastomer nitrile insulation compound; the cores can be arranged in a straight line or in a rose (star) arrangement, and the outer sheath is made of elastomer nitrile sheath compound.

Product features - Excellent flexibility and bending resistance: the finely stranded bare oxygen-free fine copper wire bundle conductor ensures the softness and flexibility of the cores. Meanwhile, with optimized cabling pitch, special structural design and high-quality raw materials, the cable can work for a long time under high-frequency bending conditions without core breakage.

Strong tensile performance: with steel wire load-bearing cores, such as high-strength galvanized double steel wires, it can withstand large mechanical impact stress and can be used for long-distance suspension, ensuring that the cable will not be pulled apart under gravity.

Space saving: the cable is flat in shape, with a smaller bending radius than round cables, which can save installation space, and multiple cables can be overlapped and bundled for use.

Good environmental adaptability: it has features such as cold resistance, abrasion resistance, oil resistance, water resistance, acid and alkali resistance, radiation resistance and corrosion resistance. The imported TPU sheath compound can adapt to seawater and other harsh environments, with a temperature range generally of -15℃ to +70℃ or -40℃ to +70℃.

Technical parameters: the rated voltage is usually U0/U 300/500V. When the cores are arranged in a single straight row and the suspension length is greater than 40 m and the moving speed is greater than 2 m/s, it is recommended to add load-bearing steel wires or aramid yarn; when the cores are arranged in a rose-shaped stranded arrangement and the suspension length is greater than 80 m and the moving speed is 4-10 m/s, it is recommended to add load-bearing steel wires.

Scope of application: widely used in traveling cranes, trolleys, transfer machinery and other mobile equipment, as well as in metallurgy, electric power, ships, logistics conveying systems, port machinery and other fields; it can also be used in elevator control systems, video system connections and other occasions.

2. Performance and Technical Indicators

Rated voltage 450/750V to 0.6/1kV; small bending radius, with a minimum of 5D (D is the outer diameter of the cable); applicable temperature range -20℃ to +80℃; good bending resistance and torsion resistance, stable and reliable for long-term mobile use.

3. Application Scenarios

Flat cables are widely used in industrial automation, lifting and transportation, ports and wharves and other fields.
