Slim Type Highly Flexible Robot Cable ORP-SL Series
Caution
Product Description
[Features]
Slim type highly flexible robot cable from Oki Electric Cable Co., Ltd. The bend tolerant flexible cable supports all robotic motion such as sliding, swinging, and twisting.
Overview of the Thin Diameter High-Flex Robot Cable ORP-SL Series
A thin diameter robot cable that is an evolution of the ORP Cable Series.
- Environmentally friendly products.
- By using Okiden's unique special elastomer as the core wire insulator, it offers bending durability to accommodate all types of robot movements.
- Industry-leading thin diameter. Also ideal for wiring in confined equipment spaces. Contributes to weight reduction of equipment. Approx. 20% thinner diameter and lighter weight compared to previous product.
- Over 100 million cycles of sliding endurance. Exhibits excellent endurance against all types of movement (sliding, swiveling, twisting).
Example applications (movable part inside factory automation equipment, teach pendant connection cable, inside cable carrier, etc.)

Behind the Scenes
To provide high-flex performance, it is effective to improve the slipperiness between core wires so that they can move relative to each other under bending stress, thereby avoiding stress concentration points.
Based on this theory, it is common for commercially available movable FA cables to use expensive fluorine resin as the insulator.
In contrast, at OKI Electric Cable, we have adopted a special elastomer resin developed from years of expertise as the insulator.
The newly developed special elastomer resin offers exceptional toughness, flexibility, and high slipperiness, achieving enhanced durability for movable cables.
This is an innovative patented technology unique to OKI, not found at other companies.
Furthermore, by leveraging OKI Electric Cable’s cable design expertise and reviewing the conductor configuration, core wire arrangement, and separator insertion method, we have achieved the thinnest diameter robot cable for conductors in Japan.
