CAUTION:
Do not use cable ties or zip ties to bundle cables or restrain the cable
to the robot arm. Directly affixing cable ties or zip ties to the cable jacket will
damage the cable. Use hook and loop or Velcro straps on the cable jacket surfaces.
Examples of the incorrect and correct methods to restrain or bundle cables are in the
following pictures:
USE
Velcro
®
straps to restrain
the cable around the robot arm.
DO NOT
USE
zip ties to restrain
the cable around the robot arm.
INCORRECT
CORRECT
USE
Velcro
®
straps
to bundle cables.
DO NOT USE
zip ties
to bundle cables.
CAUTION:
Do not damage or crush the cable by over tightening the
straps on the cable.
CAUTION:
When routing the cables, do not bend less than the minimum bending
. A bend radius too small causes the cable to fail from
fatigue of the robot’s repetitive motion.

Notes:
1.
Temperature affects cable flexibility. ATI recommends increasing the minimum dynamic bending radius for
lower temperatures.
2.
The X in the part number represents the cable length. For more information, contact ATI.
