In today's cable industry, product reliability is no longer just a quality requirement—it has become a key factor for market access, customer trust, and certification approval.
Whether manufacturing power cords, industrial control cables, appliance cables, or highly flexible cables for demanding applications, one question remains critical:
Can the cable maintain electrical integrity and mechanical performance after thousands of bending cycles?
To answer this question, international standards such as IEC 60245 and IEC 60227 require rigorous flexing and bending tests to evaluate the mechanical endurance of finished flexible cables. Manufacturers and testing laboratories worldwide rely on dedicated cable flexing test equipment to ensure compliance before products enter the market.

During daily use, flexible cables are continuously subjected to bending, twisting, dragging, and repeated movement. Over time, these mechanical stresses may cause:
Even a minor failure can lead to costly product recalls, certification delays, or customer complaints.
This is why international certification bodies such as TÜV, VDE, UL, and third-party laboratories require standardized cable flexing tests as part of their evaluation procedures.
To help manufacturers and laboratories streamline compliance testing, Sinuo has developed the IEC 60245-2 Flexible Cable Bending Test Machine, which integrates both two-pulley and three-pulley flexing test methods into a single system.
The equipment is designed according to:
and supports testing for a wide range of finished flexible cables, including high-flex industrial cables, appliance power cords, TÜV-certified cables, VDE-certified cables, and UL-approved flexible cords.
