Industrial equipment needs connections that remain stable while handling signals, power, data, vibration, and changing working conditions. At Torven, we provide circular connectors and cable assemblies for sensors, automation equipment, machine vision, robotics, servo systems, and other industrial applications.
Our approach is to match the connector, cable, and configuration to the equipment. This makes installation easier while helping engineers meet the electrical, mechanical, and environmental requirements of each application.
Circular Connector Cables for Industrial Connections
Circular connector cables combine a compact connector with a pre-assembled cable, providing a practical connection for industrial equipment. At Torven, we offer different connector sizes and cable configurations to meet different connection requirements.
Our circular connector range includes M5, M8, M12, M16, and M23 configurations. Depending on the series, contact options range from 2 to 24 pins.
For compact equipment, our M5 connector cables are available with 2, 3, or 4 contacts. Male and female configurations, together with PVC or PUR and shielded or non-shielded cable options, provide flexibility for sensor and automation connections.
Pre-assembled cables can also reduce field termination work and simplify connections between sensors, actuators, controllers, and other industrial components.
M8 Connector Cables for Sensors and Automation
When space is limited, M8 circular connectors provide a compact connection while still offering several contact and coding options. The specific configuration can then be selected according to the connected device and electrical requirements.
Our M8 connector cables are available with 3, 4, 5, 6, and 8 contacts, with A, B, and D coding options.
Key specifications include:
- Standard cable lengths of 1 m, 2 m, 5 m, and 10 m
- Custom cable lengths available
- 1 A or 3 A current ratings, depending on configuration
- 30 V or 60 V voltage ratings
- IP67 protection
- Straight and angled connector designs
These configurations can be used for proximity sensors, photoelectric switches, actuators, and other industrial automation equipment.
Circular Connector Cables for Machine Vision and Data
Machine vision applications place greater demands on cable performance because the connection may need to support high-speed data while also meeting the routing and movement requirements of the equipment.
Torven vision cable solutions support transmission speeds of:
- 1 Gbps
- 5 Gbps
- 12.5 Gbps
- 50 Gbps
Applicable configurations can support transmission distances of up to 100 m.
Our M12 machine vision cable are suitable for industrial cameras, inspection systems, robotics, and other vision applications.
For these systems, we consider the complete connection rather than the connector alone. Camera interface, transmission distance, shielding, cable routing, and movement all need to match the application.
Circular Connector Cables for Robotics and Servo Systems
Robotic and servo equipment requires cables that can withstand repeated movement. The cable construction therefore becomes just as important as the connector configuration.
Torven servo cable solutions are designed for applications such as robots and drag chains. Depending on the construction, bending resistance can reach 5 million to 10 million cycles, with a typical minimum bending radius of 7.5 to 8 times the cable outer diameter.
Our servo motor cable solutions support power and control signal transmission, with protection options ranging from IP40 to IP68 depending on the configuration.
When selecting a cable for moving equipment, consider:
- Movement pattern
- Bending radius
- Cable routing
- Required flexibility
- Environmental exposure
- Electrical requirements
This ensures that the cable assembly is selected for the complete motion system rather than only the connector.
Protection and Cable Construction for Industrial Environments
Industrial equipment may operate in environments involving moisture, dust, oil, vibration, or continuous movement. The connector and cable therefore need to match the actual installation conditions.
Torven circular connector cable configurations can provide protection ratings from IP40 to IP68, depending on the connector and sealing design.
Cable construction is also important. We offer:
- PVC and PUR cable options
- Shielded and non-shielded configurations
- Different cable lengths
- Different connector configurations
For applications exposed to water or dust, the required IP rating should be considered for the complete mating connection. For applications involving electrical interference or continuous movement, cable shielding and flexibility should also be considered.
Custom Circular Connector Cables for OEM Applications
Standard configurations can meet many industrial requirements, but OEM equipment often has specific dimensions, wiring requirements, or installation constraints. Custom cable assemblies provide greater flexibility when standard configurations are not enough.
Torven can customize requirements such as:
- Cable length
- Contact configuration
- Connector combination
- Wiring configuration
- Cable jacket
- Shielding
- Special assembly requirements
You can provide drawings, samples, connector specifications, or cable requirements, allowing us to develop the cable assembly around the actual equipment.
This approach is particularly useful for OEM projects that require consistent cable configurations across different machines or production batches.
How to Choose the Right Torven Circular Connector Cable
The connector size is only one part of the selection process. A few key requirements can quickly narrow down the appropriate cable assembly.
Consider the following:
- Application: sensor, automation, vision, robotics, or servo
- Connector size: M5, M8, M12, M16, or M23
- Contact count and coding
- Male or female configuration
- Cable length and routing
- PVC or PUR cable construction
- Shielded or non-shielded design
- Required IP protection
- Stationary or continuous-motion installation
Once these requirements are clear, we can help match the connector and cable configuration to the equipment instead of selecting a cable based on connector size alone.
Explore Torven Circular Connectors and Cables
At Torven, we provide circular connector and cable solutions for industrial automation, sensors, machine vision, robotics, servo systems, and other equipment.
From compact M5 and M8 connections to specialized vision and servo cable assemblies, our range allows engineers to select the connector size, contact configuration, cable construction, length, and protection level according to the application.
If you already have the connector size, contact count, cable length, drawing, or sample, these details can help us identify a suitable configuration. For customized requirements, contact Torven with your specifications so we can discuss the appropriate cable assembly.
