INTRODUCTION
CY cable also marked YSLCY under German DIN VDE standard, is a classic copper braid shielded flexible control cable widely matched for industrial robot systems. The tinned copper woven screen effectively blocks electromagnetic interference from servo motors, welding equipment and frequency converters, ensuring stable signal & power delivery between robot control cabinet and mechanical arm. Our factory produces full-size CY robot cables with Class5 high-flex conductors, compliant with VDE 0281, IEC 60227 and EN50525 standards, supporting customized core count, cross-section and LSZH low-smoke halogen-free sheath options.
Definition & Structure Meaning of CY / YSLCY
First Y: PVC core insulation
S: Flexible stranded conductor structure
L: Color coded core identification
C: Tinned copper braided EMI screen
Last Y: PVC outer protective sheath
Full internal build:
Conductor: Class5 fine stranded bare copper (DIN VDE0295)
Core insulation: High quality PVC compound
Separator tape: PET wrapping for stable structure
Shield: High coverage tinned copper braid screen
Outer jacket: Wear-resistant PVC (LSZH optional for fire safety scenarios)
Core Performance Parameters
Rated working voltage: 300/500V
Withstand test voltage: 2000V
Temperature range: Static -35℃ ~ +70℃; dynamic flex -15℃ ~ +70℃
Minimum bend radius: Fixed install 10× cable OD; frequent moving 15× cable OD
Flame retardant: IEC60332-3 standard
Insulation resistance: ≥20 MΩ·km
Anti-interference: Full coverage copper braid suppresses EMI/RFI crosstalk
Two Main Usage Types For Robots
Fixed Layout CY Robot Cable — Cabinet internal wiring, static panel connection
High Flex CY Robot Cable — Slight reciprocating movement between robot base & arm
Wide Robot & Automation Application Scenarios
6-axis handling robot, welding robot, palletizing robot, spraying robot, robot control panel signal wiring, PLC control loop, machine tool automation, assembly production line measuring circuit
Suitable installation: Dry & moist indoor workshops; not for direct outdoor UV exposure (needs conduit protection)
Global Certifications & Factory E-E-A-T
VDE, IEC, CE, RoHS2.0, REACH, ISO9001 quality management system. We provide original third-party bending, aging, insulation resistance test reports; free small samples for customer performance verification before bulk order.

Q1: What is the difference between CY, SY and YY control cables?
A1: CY = copper braid screen (EMI anti-interference for signal); SY = steel wire armour (mechanical impact protection only); YY = no screen, basic unshielded flexible control wire.
Q2: Can CY cable work for robot drag chain high-frequency bending?
A2: Standard PVC CY fits slight repeated movement; heavy drag chain high-cycle bending needs upgraded PUR high-flex CY variant we customized.
Q3: Is YSLCY the same as CY cable?
A3: Yes, YSLCY is the full DIN VDE model name, CY is the short universal trade name used across EU, UK and global automation markets.
