Product Description:
The ZK4500-8023-0100 is a preassembled motor supply cable from Beckhoff, supplied within the ZK Motor Cables series. Designed for routing power, brake, and encoder signals between an AX servo drive and a synchronous motor, the cable supports moving-chain applications common to packaging lines, gantry systems, and pick-and-place modules. By integrating power conductors, brake cores, and twisted signal pairs in a single jacket, the assembly simplifies field wiring and maintains consistent electrical characteristics along dynamic axes. The combined layout also reduces the number of separate cable runs at the machine axis, which helps keep routing orderly where travel paths change direction repeatedly.
The cable’s mechanical endurance is rated for 5 million cycles, enabling continuous flexing inside energy chains. During motion it may reach 4 m/s and still resist a dynamic tensile stress of 20 N/mm². To limit conductor strain, the minimum moving bend radius is 7× outer diameter. Power cores of 1.50 mm² can carry up to 30 A through the molded M23 head A connector, which provides three power contacts plus PE and five signal contacts. Bare copper strands are laid out as (4 × 1.5 mm²) + (2 × 0.75 mm²) + (2 × AWG22) to separate phases, brake lines, and encoder pairs. The twisted signal pairs help preserve encoder signal quality while the larger conductors carry motor current and brake power. The TPU jacket improves oil resistance while helping the cable remain suitable for repeated motion.
With a total length of 10.00 m, the ZK4500-8023-0100 can link cabinet drives to moving carriages on midsize portals without splices. Its dielectric structure is cleared for 1000 V AC, so the same lead set can supply high-voltage servo stages while the integrated brake cores support motor holding during shutdowns. When static, such as during installation or in service loops, the cable tolerates a maximum pull of 50 N/mm². The linear mass of 250.0 kg/km is relevant when the cable is supported over longer distances or guided through carriers. Strain relief, carrier sizing, and support spacing should match the stated pull limit, voltage capacity, and cable weight.
