Multi-core customised crane flat cables are purpose-engineered combined power and control flat cables for bridge cranes, gantry cranes, overhead travelling cranes, and port equipment where a single flat cable replaces multiple separate power and control cables. The flat construction ensures smooth festoon hanger travel without tangling, twist, or snagging while the combined power/control configuration eliminates the clutter and maintenance overhead of multiple separate cables.
Constructed with fine-wire copper power cores and twisted shielded control pairs or quads in a common flat neoprene or PVC outer sheath. Custom core counts (typically 4 power + 8 to 24 control cores), cross-sections (1.5 mm² to 25 mm² power; 0.5 mm² to 1.5 mm² control), and total cable widths are available to match any crane specification.
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Power Core Voltage | 450/750V or 0.6/1 kV AC |
| Control Core Voltage | 300/500V AC |
| Power Cross-sections | 1.5–25 mm² (custom) |
| Control Cross-sections | 0.5–1.5 mm² (custom) |
| Sheath | Flat neoprene or oil-resistant PVC |
| Temp. Range | ‑40°C to +80°C |
| Configuration | Custom — specify cores and sections |
Provide us with: number of power cores and cross-section, number of control cores and cross-section, festoon hanger spacing, and ambient temperature. We will design the optimal flat cable cross-section and sheath width for your specific crane installation.
In crane environments with variable-speed drives, shielded twisted pairs are essential to prevent VFD interference corrupting encoder and sensor signals. Specify individual pair shielding for all analogue and encoder signal cores.
