ML8T-CY

The ML8T-CY from Panduit Corp revolutionizes Terminals - Rectangular Connectors for industrial robotics applications. This high-cycle connector withstands millions of mating cycles while maintaining precise signal integrity for motion control systems. The reinforced construction resists mechanical wear from continuous robotic articulation, ensuring reliable performance in automated manufacturing environments.Featuring Lug, Grounding technology, this connector maintains contact force consistency despite constant movement. The special alloy contacts prevent fretting wear common in robotic cable management systems.With 3/16 Stud options, this terminal accommodates both motor power and encoder signal requirements. The contact surfaces are engineered to prevent oxidation in industrial atmospheres.The Single Stud Hole design provides strain relief for dynamic cable applications. This configuration prevents conductor fatigue during repeated robotic arm movements.The 0.080" (2.03mm) construction withstands mechanical stress from continuous operation. This thickness is optimized for both current capacity and flexibility in moving assemblies.Measuring 0.810" (20.57mm), this connector provides optimal cable bend radius in robotic work envelopes. The length prevents excessive stress on terminations during full-range articulation.The 0.380" (9.65mm) profile allows for high-density connections in robotic control cabinets. This compact design maximizes space utilization in automated cells.Designed for Free Hanging (In-Line) installation, this terminal facilitates quick changeovers in flexible manufacturing systems. The configuration allows for tool-less replacement during production line reconfiguration.Utilizing Screw technology, this connector resists vibration-induced loosening. The termination method maintains stable contact resistance despite constant mechanical movement.Compatible with 8-14 AWG conductors, this terminal handles both high-current servo feeds and low-voltage sensor circuits. The design prevents strand breakage during continuous flexing.The Non-Insulated system provides abrasion resistance for cables in robotic cable carriers. The material maintains flexibility across industrial temperature ranges.Incorporating With Screw, this connector exceeds industrial robot reliability standards. These include oil resistance and particulate protection for harsh manufacturing environments.
