IMTS - Flamar, a Molex Company, Debuts Standard Industrial Automation Cables
Weld-slag and oil resistant WSOR jacket cables certified for use with Ecolab® solutions in food and beverage manufacturing and processing plants and many other industrial applications
LISLE, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Molex announced that Flamar, a Molex company, has launched a complete line of standard industrial automation cables for signal and control equipment and processes, servomotors, I/O modules, EtherNet IP and other network applications.
Flamar standard industrial automation cables are available in multiple jacket materials (PVC, WSOR, PUR, TPE). The weld-slag and oil-resistant WSOR cables are tested and certified for compatibility with Ecolab® hygiene solutions commonly used in the food and beverage industry for completely safe plant cleaning.
"Flamar brings unrivaled cable expertise to assure superior performance, quality and durability," states Claudio Lerose, global product manager, Molex. "From design to finished product, Flamar is a reliable and flexible partner in custom-and now standard-cables for industrial automation."
Machine builders, line builders, robotic and system integrators can choose Flamar standard industrial automation cables in a range from 26 AWG (0,14mm2) to 10 AWG (6mm2) suitable for applications in food and beverage, material handling, automotive lines and other manufacturing operations as well as commercial vehicles (forestry, mining machines). Engineered and constructed to solve tough challenges as drag chain installation (continuous flexing up to millions of bending cycles), the cables are rated for temperature ranges down to -40°C (-40°F) and up to 105°C (221°F). They are compatible with all standard industrial connectors, including RJ45, and the Brad® range of circular connectors (M8, M12, M23) for servo motors, as well as mPm® DIN valve and Molex Heavy Duty connectors.
The Molex logistics network supports the distribution of Flamar standard industrial automation cable in multiple package sizes (small, medium, large) with small minimum order quantities. From a manufacturing standpoint, state-of-the-art extrusion lines and back-torsion cabling machines meet top quality standards. An internal reliability and testing laboratory performs mechanical, electrical, flame resistance, drag chain tests and validates cable developments in compliance with many agency approvals. All Flamar standard industrial automation cables are UL AWM/CSA certified and specific series also UL listed.
"Our advanced manufacturing methods assure that Flamar standard industrial automation cables meet the most rigorous standards at a competitive cost to customers," adds Lerose.
Molex booth (E-4110) will showcase Flamar standard industrial automation cables at the upcoming Industrial Automation North America at IMTS 2016 conference in Chicago.

Featured Product
3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
