Assemblies added to its online configuration tool

9 August 2006 Interconnection

W.L. Gore has added assemblies to its online interactive design guide. The tool now provides a menu of connector options to configure a complete Gore high flex flat cable assembly or Gore trackless cable assembly.

Gore's standard connector offerings include: D-Sub (standard, high density and combo), BNC, Coaxial, IEEE1394, RJ45, CPC and Mate-n-lock.

The Gore high flex flat cable and trackless cable configurator (available at www.gore.com/designacable) simplifies the cable design process via a quick, streamlined step-by-step procedure. Users can take an interactive tour to learn more, and then proceed to design a cable or cable assembly and submit an RFQ using the simple step-by-step configuration tool.

Gore's standard cable offering includes all of the components necessary to drive and control a motion system: shielded/unshielded power and signal, video, Ethernet, IEEE 1394, fibre-optic and pneumatic lines. These cables can be used in an energy chain or cable track and will provide a smaller package solution, allowing better utilisation of space.

The high flex flat cable is available in two forms: spooled cable for higher volumes to ensure lower unit costs and discrete length cable built to required lengths with ends prepped for termination. Trackless cable eliminates the need for cable track, along with the problems typically associated with cable track such as particulation, vibration, weight and size.

The high flex flat cables and trackless cables are designed and tested to achieve 10 million cycles on a 50 mm bend radius.
