The core feature of flexible chain cables is their resistance to repeated bending. They can be used in any scenario where equipment needs to be continuously moved back and forth for wiring, and are important supporting wires in automated production.

The CNC machine tool industry is the main application scenario. The internal sliding table of the machine tool moves back and forth, and the cable is stored in the drag chain, constantly following the reciprocating motion. The flexible support chain cable undertakes the power and signal transmission tasks of the machine tool, ensuring the continuous cutting operation.

The automation assembly line industry also has a relatively large usage. Sorting equipment, packaging production lines, and transplanting robots are constantly moving in a circular motion. Ordinary cables cannot withstand high-frequency bending, while flexible chain cables can withstand long-term reciprocating motion, reducing cable failures and lowering the probability of production line downtime.

There is also a storage three-dimensional warehouse, where stacker cranes run back and forth between shelves, and cables are stored in drag chains. In the robotics industry, some mobile robots also use flexible chain cables for their drag chain wiring.

Different working conditions have different requirements for cables. Some workshops have heavy oil stains, so it is necessary to choose oil resistant protective sheaths; Some places have more dust, so the wear resistance of the outer skin needs to be better. When used in low-temperature environments, it is also necessary to consider that the material does not harden at low temperatures. Selecting flexible chain cables based on on-site working conditions can better adapt to equipment movement requirements and extend cable service life.
