Product Description:

The 8BCM0005.1312A-0 is a hybrid power and signal cable manufactured by B&R Automation for use in the 8BC ACOPOS Cables series. It connects an ACOPOS servo drive to a synchronous motor so that three-phase power, brake supply, and encoder conductors share one flexible jacket. Using one cable for these circuits simplifies routing through moving machine sections and reduces the number of separate cable runs. The combined sheath also helps keep cable management simpler in compact machine frames where space around the axis is limited.

The bundle contains four power cores, two brake lines, and two signal pairs in a 4 x 4.0 mm² + 2 x 0.75 mm² + 2 x 1.0 mm² layout, which keeps power and low-level feedback paths organized within one sheath. The cable has an overall diameter of 15.4 mm, which supports drag-chain routing for this size class. Power conductors can carry up to 30 A, and the insulation system is rated for a continuous operating potential of 1000 VAC. A tinned-copper braid and an aluminum-laminated foil shield help reduce common-mode noise from drive pulse patterns. The hybrid layout keeps the brake and feedback conductors separate from the main power cores, which helps preserve signal clarity during fast drive switching. The molded 8-pin female Speedtec motor connector, size 1, mates directly to compatible B&R servo motors and has an IP66/67 sealing level. Power line resistance is limited to 5.1 Ω/km, and the stranded copper conductors are tinned to resist oxidation during thermal cycling.

Dynamic axis applications are supported by a maximum acceleration of 50 m/s² and a top travel velocity of 300 m/min. Mechanical endurance is rated for 5,000,000 flex cycles in continuous-motion cable carriers, and the abrasion-resistant TPU jacket is intended for repeated movement. Electrical insulation integrity is verified by a wire-to-wire test voltage of 4 kV. The minimum insulation resistance is 500 MΩ·km, and the cable is intended for axes that accelerate, decelerate, and reverse repeatedly during production cycles.
