# Industrial Specification: Internal Cable Carrier

## 1. Technical Definition
A protective housing system that organizes, guides, and shields cables and hoses within a robotic arm's moving joints.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-2.5 m/s cable velocity, -20°C to 80°C ambient temperature, 0-100% relative humidity non-condensing**. Failure boundary: **Cable bending radius &lt; 8× cable diameter (minimum bend radius), tensile load &gt; 150 N per cable, abrasion cycles &gt; 500,000 at 1.5 m/s**, Mechanism: **Polymer chain scission due to cyclic bending fatigue at radii below minimum bend radius, exceeding yield strength of polyamide-6 (σ_y = 80 MPa) causing permanent deformation**.

### 2.2 FMEA (Failure Mode & Effects Analysis)
| Event Trigger | Severity | Failure Mode | Mitigation Strategy |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Cable velocity exceeding 2.5 m/s causing inertial whip | 8 | Cable insulation abrasion against carrier interior at contact pressure &gt; 0.8 MPa | Install velocity limiter with Hall-effect sensor feedback to robotic controller at 2.3 m/s threshold |
| Ambient temperature &gt; 80°C exceeding glass transition temperature (T_g) of polyamide-6 | 8 | Carrier segment deformation reducing internal clearance below 1.5 mm, causing cable pinch | Implement active cooling with Peltier elements maintaining internal temperature ≤ 75°C |

- **Caution**: 

### Q: What materials are best for internal cable carriers in heavy machinery?
**A**: Engineering plastics like Nylon or POM offer lightweight durability and corrosion resistance, while stainless steel provides maximum strength for high-stress industrial environments.

### Q: How does an internal cable carrier protect cables in robotic arm joints?
**A**: The carrier system organizes cables and hoses within a sealed housing that shields them from abrasion, pinch points, and environmental contaminants during continuous joint movement.

### Q: What components are essential in a cable carrier BOM for machinery manufacturing?
**A**: A complete bill of materials includes interlocking links for flexibility, separators to organize individual cables/hoses, and end connectors for secure attachment to robotic arm segments.
