In the food industry, even an inconspicuous component such as a cable entry can affect hygiene, ease of cleaning, and the reliability of the entire machine. So how can you design a cable entry that is sealed, resistant to cleaning agents, and convenient to service, without unnecessarily increasing construction costs? We look at the key factors to consider and where the CABseal clean system is the right fit.

What truly determines the reliability of a cable installation in railway rolling stock: the quality of the individual components, or the way they work together in specific areas of the vehicle? In an environment exposed to fire, vibration, water, chemicals, high temperatures, and EMC interference, combining conduits, connectors, and supports from different suppliers can quickly turn an apparent saving into a costly operational problem. Discover how FLEXA’s system-based approach to cable protection helps select the right solutions for the most demanding areas of rolling stock and reduces the risk of failure throughout the vehicle’s entire service life.

New requirements for vessels, the growing importance of electromagnetic compatibility, and rigorous environmental testing mean that only solutions that meet the highest standards are acceptable in marine applications. PFLITSCH cable glands, which comply with current military requirements, are the answer to the needs of modern ship and offshore systems.

The dynamic movements of robots and cobots require equally intelligent cable management solutions. The FLEXA RQDR series of rotating hose holders has been designed for maximum flexibility, safety, and durability of cable installations in modern robotics—even in the most demanding applications with high dynamic movements.

Effective EMC protection in industrial machinery depends on the physical continuity between the cable shield and the enclosure entry point. By pairing high-density braided cables with 360-degree compression glands, installers can achieve superior noise suppression without the mechanical stiffness of traditional foil-wrapped alternatives. This integrated approach ensures both signal integrity and the long-term durability required for dynamic, high-vibration applications

Installing corrugated conduits can turn into a logistical puzzle: retaining rings, O‑rings, torque values and the constant risk of losing the seal. FLEXAquick reduces it to a single click - no nuts, no tools, no compromises. How does the snap‑lock mechanism work? How much time can you really save, and how do you keep a high IP rating along the entire cable route? Find out in the article.
