Film Capacitors for Oil & Gas Power Electronics rated to 200°C, 400 VDC.  Datasheet includes overview, benefits, properties, test data, and example configurations.

Flexible cables are the backbone of lightweight and cognitive robotic systems, enabling the smooth movement of critical moving parts and joints. Read a comprehensive study in which we conducted rigorous testing using state-of-the-art TicToc tester to compare the performance of cables from different vendors.

Particle generation from cables in cable chains is a complex problem for semiconductor cleanroom environments. GORE® Trackless High Flex Cables and GORE® High Flex Flat Cables from W. L. Gore & Associates can be reliably used in these environments requiring low particulation. Find out the results of the study by the Fraunhofer Institute in Germany.

W. L. Gore & Associates examines constraints that may have an impact on cable performance. Also examined is the process involved in selecting the right materials based on sufficient testing to verify cables will survive and perform reliably in the harshest environments.

The High Flex GFX617 cable series is often used in linear motion, inspection, and pick-and-place applications.

This article, featured in the April 2009 issue of Motion System Design magazine, provides tips on specifying and working with cables for automated machinery and systems. Check out these tips and tactics from industry leaders to keep your data and power lines healthy.

Application article by Jörgen Andersson in Signalen magazine, October 2006, about a Gore custom-made FireWire cable.

This article, featured in the February 19, 2009 issue of Machine Design, explains the value expanded PTFE brings to Gore products, especially cable.  The author provides a deep look inside PTFE , the materials characteristics and explains how this material gives cables long flex-life, extra strength, better signal transmission, and clean-room performance.

This article, featured in the July 23, 2009 issue of Machine Design, discusses the problem of particulates for moving cable systems and provides guidance on designing cable systems for a cleanroom environment.

The GTS series of GORE® IDC Ribbon Cables provide space savings for applications demanding minimal space. The GTS cable series is .025" high density PTFE-insulated ribbon cable that is RoHS compliant, vacuum compatible, and resistant to aging.
