High Flexible Cables

High Flexible Cables are designed for applications where continuous movement, extreme bending loads, and long service life place exceptional demands on cable performance. Increasing machine speeds, tighter bending radii, higher accelerations, and millions of movement cycles require cable constructions that combine outstanding flexibility with reliable electrical and mechanical performance. Factors such as flex life, conductor design, stranding technology, material selection, and cable geometry all play a critical role in ensuring long-term operational reliability. 

We recommend considering a custom high flexible cable whenever dynamic movement, installation constraints, or demanding operating conditions have a direct influence on system performance and service life. Habia develops High Flexible Cables by optimizing conductor construction, stranding technology, insulation systems, material selection, and cable geometry to withstand continuous mechanical stress while maintaining stable electrical performance. The result is a cable solution engineered for exceptional flex life, reliable operation, and long-term durability, even under the most demanding dynamic operating conditions.

The Unique Strengths of Habia Cables and Habia as a Cable Manufacturer

The performance of a high flexible cable depends on the intelligent combination of flexibility with reliable electrical and mechanical performance over millions of movement cycles. For that, the optimum combination of conductor design, stranding technology, material selection, insulation systems, and cable geometry is essential. Habia develops high flexible cables as an integral part of the overall system, tailoring every cable construction to the specific movement profile, installation constraints, and technical requirements of the application. 

With decades of experience in specialty cable engineering and manufacturing, Habia supports customers from the earliest stages of product development. Our engineering teams evaluate bending radii, acceleration forces, travel speeds, mechanical loads, available installation space, and electrical and thermal requirements to develop a technically and commercially optimized cable solution. This collaborative development process shortens development time, simplifies system integration, and reduces the risk of premature cable failure. The result is a high flexible cable engineered to deliver exceptional flex life, extended service life, and maximum operational reliability, even under the most demanding dynamic operating conditions.

Insulation and Jacket Materials for High Flexible Cables

Selecting the right insulation and jacket material is critical to achieving the exceptional flexibility, mechanical durability, and long-term reliability required in highly dynamic applications. Continuous movement, millions of bending cycles, high accelerations, and demanding environmental conditions place extreme demands on cable construction. Drawing on decades of expertise in specialty cable engineering, Habia selects the optimum material combination to maximize flex life while meeting the specific electrical, mechanical, thermal, and environmental requirements of each application.

Solid silicones (HTV)

Solid silicones are copolymers of dimethylsiloxanes (main chain) and isolated vinylmethylsiloxanes (functional group). Due to their low intermolecular interaction, they have a soft, pasty consistency. With a viscosity of 10,000 to 50,000 Pa-s, solid silicones are easy to process at room temperature.
