Channel-Wrap® (PFR) Robotic Cable Sleeving

Channel-Wrap® is a wraparound sleeve that, depending on your environment, can be manufactured from a multitude of materials and offers a variety of different types of closure options. The advantage of utilizing this sleeve is having the ability to wrap the sleeve around a robotic arm, a post, a railing, or any other component, and then route cables, wires, or hoses through the channels built into the closure portion of the sleeve.

These particular Channel-Wrap® products are comprised of Zippertubing’s best-in-abrasion, non-PVC, PFR-18 jacketing material that is extremely flexible, resistant to most fluids, flame retardant and meets military specifications. This material also allows cables, wires, tubes or hoses to easily move within the jacketing. Channel-Wrap® (PFR) closes using a Velcro-style hook-and-loop closure.

Fun fact: Channel-Wrap® was originally designed for Zippertubing’s own production needs, as Zippertubing® currently utilizes a Universal Robot brand machine in its own production environment. After the initial set up of the robot to complete a job, we realized that we could manufacture a wrap-around robot cable sleeve that would not only securely hold an air hose line, but allow the air hose to move with each of the robots actions.

Whether you are looking for a simple collaborative robot cable bundling product, or something that may need to handle harsher environments, such as high temperatures, Zippertubing® can customize a solution to fit your specific application requirements.
