Product Description:
The ZK4510-0020-0120 motor cable is produced by Beckhoff and belongs to the ZK Motor Cables series. It forms the flexible link that carries phase power, brake cores, and feedback lines between a servo drive and its motor in automated machinery. Factory-terminated ends reduce assembly time and preserve shielding integrity, allowing the assembly to be installed directly in energy chains, robots, or gantry axes that undergo constant motion. Its mechanical construction follows Beckhoff guidelines for continuous-flex applications used in packaging, material-handling, and semiconductor equipment.
The cable has a cross-section of 7 x 2 x 0.14 mm² + 2 x 0.5 mm², combining fine-stranded, tinned-copper conductors for low resistance. Its overall length is 12.00 m, allowing the assembly to span moderate carriage distances. An M23 female plug with 17 contacts is fitted on the motor side, and the drive end uses a D-Sub 15-pin connection. The phase contacts at the M23 head carry 7 A continuously at up to 125 V AC/DC. A polyurethane jacket resists oil, while braid and foil provide at least 85 % shield coverage. The sheath measures 7.6 mm ± 0.3 mm, which corresponds to a fixed bend radius of four outer diameters and a dynamic bend radius of seven outer diameters.
For moving applications, the cable tolerates accelerations up to 30 m/s² and travel velocities up to 4 m/s without conductor fatigue. Travel paths can extend to 20 m while maintaining servo feedback integrity, provided the chain radii stay within the stated limits. System logic supplies the encoder cores with an operating potential of 30 V, and the tinned-copper shielding helps maintain signal quality across the full stroke. This arrangement supports fast, repetitive motion on pick-and-place gantries and linear transfer modules where both flexibility and stable electrical transmission are required.
