Reducing Downtime In Robotics
And Automation
www.reikuna.com
4
Almost 85 % of Robotics and Automation
“downtime” can be directly attributed
to cable or hose failure.
One element in automation that has historically been ­overlooked is
the use of specifically designed Hi Tech Cable and Hose Management Systems or “dress-out”. With the high dynamic expectations
in today’s’ automated applications, manufacturers and integrators
are forced to use very flexible wires, cables and hoses. This generally translates to lower tensile strengths, which now combined with
repetitive flexing, plus added mechanical and torsional stresses,
failures are almost always imminent.
The cost of downtime and the eventual replacement of failed cables
and hoses could dramatically be reduced by the implementation
of an inexpensive “dress-out” system. REIKU offers easy to use
“dressout” components that offer, “customer oriented system solutions”
for most applications. REIKU components have been tested to
withstand up to 15 million dynamic cycles.
REIKU works closely with our customers
to design solutions that meet their needs.
“Customer-oriented system solutions.”

Conduit Selection
Blick
5
e Sight
REIKU’s patented conduit profile allows for a smaller bending radius without having the actual convolutes
interfering with one another or reducing the inside diameter of the conduit. An independent detailed
analysis report is available upon request comparing REIKU’s conduit to it’s leading competitors.
The proper conduit diameter selection should be based on the area that is required to fit all of the cables and hose O.D.’s used in the
application. REIKU recommends that a maximum, of 75% conduit capacity fill be considered in order to prevent the potential chaffing of
cables and hoses inside the conduit and also to allow for “future use” potential. REIKU conduit part numbers contain the Inside Diameter or
I.D. of the conduit as a suffix.
For assistance in calculating the area requirements for your project please contact davec@drossbach.com Please be advised that adding all of the cable and hose O.D.’s
together will not provide the correct area requirement.
REIKU Robotic Conduit Materials
PA RAB Nylon 12 conduit is used in upwards of 75% of all Robotic applications. This proprietary Nylon 12 polymer offers
an operating range of-50 degreeC up to +150 degree C with superior chemical and abrasion resistance properties. Tested to withstand in
excess of 15,000,000 repetative cycles.
PA RRB is a “Heavy” Nylon 12 conduit for applications that require extreme mechanical protection or more integral wall thickness
to support heavier cable and hose contents.
PA RFB is a “Crushproof” Nylon 12 conduit for applications that require additional mechanical protection or more integral wall
thickness to support heavier cable and hose contents.
PU RVB “Heavy” Polyurethane conduit is used in Robotic applications that have extreme dynamic requirements.
This “softer” compound offers an operating range of -05 degreeC up to +105 degree C with lower chemical and abrasion resistance
properties than the Nylon 12 conduits.
PU RXB is REIKU’s “Heaviest” polyurethane conduit for applications that require additional mechanical protection or more
integral wall thickness to support heavier cable and hose contents.
REIKU also manufactures conduits designed specifically for use in extreme cold applications.

The use of REIKU cablestars is crucial in creating an optimal cable managment system
TKKSB-23 , TKKSB- 36 , TKKSB-52 and TKKSB-70
CABLESTARS
CABLESTARS are soft rubber “grommets” that are used at the termination areas
of the conduit runs. These cablestars are custom prepared for the customer’s
application.Each hole I.D. is precision water-jet bored to be MINUS 0.50 mm from
the O.D of each individual cable and hose . This ensures that the cables and hoses
are secured from moving laterally and reduces the strain from connection points.
The cablestars also seal the conduit to prevent foreign materials from entering
inside the tubes.

PA KTB-70 Trumpet Ball
Pkg Qty 10
The Trumpet Ball offers the same 360 degree orbital rotation and ball joint mobiilty
as the Connection Joint. The Trumpet Ball has corrugations at one end to terminate
the conduit but the opposite end has no ridges instead it has a smooth radius edge
for the cables and hoses to exit the assembly without the risk of chaffing.
