Crane flat cable, also known as festoon flat cable or travelling flat cable, is a specialized power & control cable built for continuously moving lifting equipment. Different from ordinary round cables, its flat ribbon structure eliminates twisting, tangling and kinking during reciprocating travel, making it the ideal power transmission solution for overhead cranes, gantry cranes, hoists and port material handling machinery.

Cable Construction

  • Conductor: Fine stranded bare copper, compliant with VDE 0295 Class 5, excellent flexibility and anti-fatigue performance under frequent bending.

  • Insulation: Special PVC / Elastomer compound, stable electrical property.

  • Reinforcement: Optional galvanized steel wire embedded on both sides for extra tensile strength, suitable for long-distance suspension installation.

  • Outer Sheath: Modified PVC or rubber blend, resistant to abrasion, oil, moisture, UV and aging.

  • Core Options: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 32 cores available, customized core cross-section upon request.

Key Benefits

Flat Structure Design: Saves installation space, runs smoothly inside festoon trolleys without winding. Small bending radius for repeated dynamic movement.

Superior Tensile Performance: Optional built-in steel wire bears cable self-weight, prevents conductor breakage for long travel spans.

Harsh Environment Resistance: Good oil resistance, weather resistance, wear resistance, works reliably in workshops, ports, metallurgy yards and outdoor sites.

Long Service Life: Optimized flexible stranding reduces metal fatigue under continuous flexing, lowers downtime and maintenance cost.

Wide Temperature Range: Stable operation from -15℃ up to +80℃, custom cold-resistant versions available for low-temperature regions.

Typical Applications

  • Overhead travelling cranes, gantry cranes, electric hoists

  • Festoon cable trolley systems

  • Port container cranes, shipboard lifting equipment

  • Metallurgy plants, mining machinery, logistics conveyor systems

  • Workshop mobile trolley power and signal control
