Product Description:
The ZK4500-8023-0150 motor cable is produced by Beckhoff as part of the ZK Motor Cables series. It is specified for linking cabinet-mounted servo drives to moving synchronous motors on automated production lines. By combining power, brake, and encoder conductors inside a single flexible jacket, the cable reduces wiring volume within energy-chains and maintains signal integrity during high-duty motion. Its construction supports continuous bending and torsion, making it appropriate for gantry axes, pick-and-place modules, and packaging machinery that run around the clock.
The cable ships in a fixed length of 15.00 m, enabling direct connection without field splices. Its conductor set, arranged as 4 × 1.5 mm² + 2 × 0.75 mm² + 2 × AWG22, separates motor phases, protective earth, brake supply, and feedback lines inside individual insulations. An M23 plug at Head A provides three power pins plus PE and five signal contacts, while the 12.7 mm outer diameter fits standard drag-chain separators. During motion the bundle withstands a dynamic tension of 20 N/mm²; when stationary it tolerates 50 N/mm². For insulation assessment, the power cores endure 4 kV for five minutes at 50 Hz and operate continuously up to 1000 V AC. Insulation resistance stays above 500 MΩ·km, and the jacket is rated for at least 5 million bending cycles in guided chains.
Additional mechanical limits round out the motion profile. In carriers the moving section must follow a minimum bend radius of 7 × OD moved / 5 × OD fixed. Linear travel can reach 20 m horizontally or 5 m vertically at speeds up to 4 m/s, and rotary axes may twist the assembly to 30 °/m without damaging the cores. An overall braid maintains at least 85% shield coverage, keeping encoder signals immune to drive-pulse interference during rapid acceleration.
