Product Description:
The ZK4500-0023-0130, produced by Beckhoff within the ZK Motor Cables series, is a flexible motor power and feedback cable used to connect servomotors to distributed drive controllers in automated machines. It routes both power and low-level sensor lines through a single shielded jacket, supporting dynamic energy-chain applications and maintaining signal integrity during high-duty motion cycles. The PUR outer jacket resists abrasion and oil, while the internal power and signal conductors are arranged to reduce crosstalk.
Mechanically, the cable is rated for a maximum acceleration of 30 m/s², meaning the conductors and PUR jacket can withstand sharp motion profiles without fatigue. During sustained operation, the assembly can complete up to 10 million bending cycles in an energy chain, supporting continuous production shifts. A linear speed limit of 4 m/s pairs with a permissible travel length of 20 m, so the cable can be used along gantry or robot axes. Under tensile stress, the stranded copper cores bear a dynamic load of 20 N/mm², and the molded strain relief at the M23, 8-pin connector on side A helps prevent pullout.
Electrical parameters align with machine-level power distribution. The conductor system handles up to 1000 V AC without partial discharge, enabling direct connection to drive outputs. An outer diameter of 12.4 mm sets the fixed bend radius at four times that value and the dynamic bend radius at seven times that value, allowing tight routing inside drag chains. Static suspension loads can reach 50 N/mm² before elongation becomes critical, making the cable suitable for vertical axis carriers. The total supplied length is 13.00 m, and the molded M23 plug with eight positions ensures keyed mating. When installed, the PUR sheath remains flexible at low ambient temperatures and protects against coolants.
