ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN. Cables for robot workcells are in constant motion and fail quickly if not properly managed which is why G�del developed Base-RAP for TrackMotion� floor and overhead modules. If dress packs for robots are an afterthought, especially at the base of a robot, premature cable failure is virtually certain. G�del�s Base-RAP (Routing and Protection) solution provides cable management and protection features to prevent cable problems between the energy chain of TrackMotion modules and the base of the robot. �When considering a linear motion provider, it pays to investigate the level of support offered for cable management,� said Joe Campbell, Vice President, Sales and Marketing. �At G�del we go the extra distance. Base-RAP is protection all the way from the cable carrier to termination points on the TrackMotion carriage and robot base.� Key components of Base-RAP include protective cable conduit, brackets, and quick access mounting clips. Conduits are two piece split loom construction and available in several sizes to protect cables from tangling, flapping and interference with robot motion. All brackets are designed and configured to safeguard against stress and unnecessary motion, and appropriate bend radii are maintained to prevent premature cable failure. Quick access clips are designed for easy replacement of cables without special tools.
