Stephen, I'm basically guessing here ...

... but if I understand the context correctly - and from looking at www.nubert-forum.de/nuforum/ftopic8301.html + www.stazo.nl/SecuTred_Duits.pdf - then it appears that "Radius" is being used in the sense of "halfkreisförmiger Ausschnitt" and that "überbiegen" means the film has a bit of "give" and can be stretched (around the corner or side or whatever).

You probably already knew all of this anyway (assuming I'm on the right track).

So, the "Kreuzungsradien" would be the semicircular cutouts where the two parts of the film come together at the edges or at the back .... Perhaps "semicircular crossover cutouts"

By the same token, the "Gehäusedurchbruch für Flachbandleiter
- Radius an den Kanten, wenn möglich beide Seiten" would be a semicircular cutout for the cable.

Apologies if all this is in fact garbage but it makes at least a tiny little bit of sense to me.
Note from asker:
Hi Tony, thanks for your ideas, definitely not garbage! What you describe is pretty much what I understand to be going on. I am guessing myself a bit too, as all I have is an Excel spread sheet with various unconnected lists. I had thought of 'cross-over' myself, I'll see what the client thinks of that. Thanks again.
