Precise transmission of mechanical motion

While these control cable solutions fulfill many functions in these industrial markets, they are most commonly used for precise transmission of mechanical motion. Other frequent uses for control cables are throttle control, brake control, power takeoff, release actuation, and engagement and disengagement of different systems. The Bergen Cable team makes these systems with either its own standard components or its versatile machining capabilities. The company employs machining for customizing cable systems for the client’s specific or unique requirements.

Common applications for which Bergen customers use its control cable solutions:

• all-terrain vehicles;
• construction vehicles and equipment;
• fixed-wing aircraft systems;
• helicopter systems;
• HVAC controls;
• industrial systems;
• medical equipment;
• military equipment and vehicles;
• outdoor power equipment;
• utility vehicles; and
• wheelchairs.

Bergen offers two categories of control cables from its inventory – Push-Pull and Pull-Pull. When using the Push-Pull design, compression applies motion on one direction and tension applies it in the opposite direction; when using the latter cable models, tension applies the motion and the control is returned to its initial position by spring actuation.

Control cables make up just one of the numerous kinds of cable and wire-rope solutions that Bergen offers for companies all over the continent. These products range in size from miniature to 3/8 of an inch in diameter, and clients may acquire bulk cable for a minimum order of US$150. Electrical and jacketed cable products are also available from Bergen.
