Top quality all round: our round cables for your demanding applications

CiS assembles standard and customised round cable solutions with all components available on the market. These include contacts, switches and connectors. We can easily fulfil specific requirements by developing special cables and our own connectors to meet every customer request. We manufacture round cables ourselves or work together with long-standing partners.
Top quality all round

Round cables have a multi-core circular structure and are usually available by the metre. The individual cores are located around the centre and are bundled in a cable sheath. Depending on the application, the cable core consists of stranded wires, dummy elements, shielding, taping or strain relief. The outer cable sheath is usually made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polypropylene (PP) or fluoroethylene propylene (FEP) and protects the inner workings of the cable.
Round cables are particularly popular as components in industry, as they are highly resistant to solvents, oil, lubricants and acids. In a cable, several individual conductors are combined in one structure to transmit energy and different signals. The structure simplifies installation in a system because there is no forced mechanical direction of orientation. This is an advantage of round cables over other cable types such as flat ribbon cables.
Is your product frequently exposed to the weather? Our high-quality round cables can withstand temperatures, UV radiation and water. We also offer round cables for individual use that are protected against electrical interference.
Round cables are used in many different areas: electrical connections, data cables or control cables in systems and machines. We offer you a wide range of customised cable solutions with high-quality cable assemblies.
Typical applications for round cables are vehicle cables or common FLRYY cables. These supply the motor of an electric vehicle with sufficient energy. Control cables also often take the form of round cables. The variety of applications is also reflected in the mechanical requirements that a round cable must fulfil.
Round cables with cable assemblies by the metre are used in electrotechnical systems. These include sectors such as mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, medical technology, transport and traffic as well as energy and environmental technology. Round cables are also used in aerospace technology.
In contrast to the production of stranded conductors, the complex structure of round cables makes complete automation very costly or even impossible. Only the cutting to length can be fully automated, even in the round version. This makes an automated solution rather uneconomical compared to manual or semi-automatic processing for small and medium-sized quantities. We always keep an eye on efficiency when it comes to customised cable assembly and always select the most economical processing method with the customer in mind. Our technical sales team is also on hand to assist you with customised solutions at every stage of product development.
Requirements
- Flexibility for various areas of application
- High electrical conductivity
- Robust insulation to protect the conductors
- Resistance to external influences such as moisture, heat and chemical substances
- Low electromagnetic interference (EMC)
- Reliable connection between the conductors
- Compatibility with common connectors and connection systems
- Fulfilment of norms and standards of the respective industry/sector
Combined advantages of ribbon cables and round cables
Every product is only as good as the individual components that guarantee its functionality as a whole. Our long-standing partner, technology group 3M, has developed a special feature to combine all the advantages of round cables with the benefits of ribbon cables. The basis for this is a laminating technique in which the strands of a round cable are laminated flat. This allows insulation displacement connectors to be quickly and easily assembled on round cables.
