3.7 Precautions of Using Cables
1. Do not bend or apply tensions to cables. The core wire of a signal cable is only 0.2 or 0.3
mm thin. Handle the cables carefully.
2. In scenarios where cables need to be moved, use exible cables. Common cables are
easily damaged after being bent for a long time. Cables of low power servo motors cannot
be moved.
3. If cable towline is used, make sure:
•
The bending radius of the cable must be at least 10 times of the diameter of the cable.
•
Do not x or bundle the cables inside the cable towline. You can bundle them at both ends
of the cable towline.
•
Cables must not be wound or warped.
•
Space factor inside the cable towline must not exceed 60%.
•
Do not mix cables of great difference in size together. Otherwise, thick cables may crush
thin cables. If you need to use them together, place a spacer plate to separate them.
