Flatform

Flatform cables, also known as flat travelling cables, are used to maintain electrical connections in moving equipment. Their flat construction makes them particularly suitable for lifts and elevators, where cables must accommodate repeated movement within a defined space.

Cableworld supplies Flatform and Flatform Neoprene cables for lift systems and suitable industrial applications.

Why choose our flatform cables?

Flatform cables provide a practical way to carry power, control signals and communications between moving machinery and fixed equipment. In lift installations, they can connect the travelling lift car to the associated electrical and control systems.

Cableworld's range includes Flatform and Flatform Neoprene cables, offering different constructions for applications with specific operating requirements. Selecting between them requires consideration of the relevant product specifications and installation conditions.

Flat travelling cables may also be suitable for industrial conveyor systems and other machinery where a moving cable arrangement is required. However, not every flat cable is designed for continuous movement, so its intended application must be confirmed.

Cable dimensions, minimum bending radius, travel distance and installation space are important selection factors. These should be assessed alongside the electrical requirements and the manufacturer's installation guidance.

Popular flatform cable questions

What is flatform cable used for?

Flatform cable is primarily used in lifts and elevators to maintain electrical connections between moving lift cars and fixed control equipment.

Suitable constructions may also be used in industrial machinery and conveyor applications.

What is the difference between flatform cable and flat travelling cable?

Flatform cable is a type of flat travelling cable. The terms are often used in similar contexts, although individual products can differ in their construction, electrical characteristics and intended applications.

Always check the product specification rather than relying on the cable name alone.

What should I check when installing flatform cable in a lift?

Check the available installation space, cable travel distance, minimum bending radius and the manufacturer's requirements for suspension and routing.

The cable must also meet the electrical and operational requirements of the lift system. Installation should be carried out by appropriately competent personnel.

What flatform cables does Cableworld supply?

Cableworld lists Flatform and Flatform Neoprene products within its cable range.

The appropriate product depends on the installation environment, cable construction and operating requirements. Check the relevant specification before ordering.

How do I choose the correct flatform cable?

Start with the equipment manufacturer's cable requirements, including the number and size of conductors, electrical ratings and movement characteristics.

For replacement work, compare the existing cable specification with the proposed product. Cable dimensions and installation conditions should also be checked to establish suitability.
