Product Overview
The RS-8116-6D Cable Bending Tester is designed to evaluate the bending fatigue life and electrical performance of cables under repeated flexing movements. Equipped with six independent testing stations, Panasonic AC servo motors, Shimpo planetary reducers, and a six-channel impedance monitoring system, the tester provides accurate, stable, and efficient durability testing for various cable products.
The machine supports programmable bending angles, testing speed, cycle counts, and dwell time. During testing, impedance changes are continuously monitored to detect conductor damage or electrical instability. Once the preset limit is exceeded, the corresponding station automatically alarms and stops, ensuring reliable test results.
Designed for cable manufacturers, consumer electronics companies, automotive wiring suppliers, laboratories, and quality control departments, the RS-8116-6D is suitable for testing USB cables, Type-C cables, charging cables, earphone cables, communication cables, industrial cables, and other multi-core flexible cables.
Why Choose RS-8116-6D Cable Bending Tester?
- Independent 6-Station Testing
Each testing station operates independently, allowing multiple cable samples to be tested simultaneously with different testing parameters. This significantly improves testing efficiency and reduces production verification time.
- High Precision Servo Motion Control
Six Panasonic AC servo motors combined with Shimpo planetary reducers provide smooth rotation, accurate positioning (0.1° resolution), low vibration, and long-term operational stability.
- Real-Time Impedance Monitoring
Each station continuously measures electrical impedance using a four-wire bridge method. When conductor resistance exceeds the preset value, the system immediately alarms and automatically stops the affected station.
- Flexible Test Programming
Operators can freely set:
- Test angle
- Rotation speed
- Test cycles
- Dwell time
- Impedance limits
Different cable specifications can therefore be tested according to customer requirements or international standards.
- Convenient Data Management
All testing records can be automatically saved and exported through a USB drive for quality analysis and report generation.

How the Cable Bending Tester Works
The cable sample is fixed between the rotating fixture and the weight loading system. During testing, the servo motor repeatedly bends the cable according to the programmed angle and speed.
Throughout the test, the impedance monitoring module continuously checks the electrical continuity of each conductor. Any abnormal increase in resistance indicates conductor fatigue or breakage. Once the resistance exceeds the preset threshold, the machine automatically records the failure, stops the affected station, and stores the testing data.
This process enables manufacturers to accurately evaluate cable service life and verify product quality before mass production.
