Details

Alpha Wire's Series SF cables are designed specifically for servo motors and servo drives. Series SF cable is the right choice if you need increased flexibility for your power servo applications. The cable is extremely flexible, and is made up using very thin individual strands in order to pass the maximum current through the given cross-sectional area. The insulation is made of a special material which is also employed in full-size aviation. It is virtually indestructible, and offers excellent protection even when reduced to just a thin film around the copper conductor.

Alpha servo motor cables have been developped for the quick connection of computer aided CNC machines as for example CNC mills or drilling machines.

They combine a trouble-free combination of current supply and data transmission. Motor connection cables, feedback cables as well as transmission cables belong to the servo motor cables. Further application fields are for example the motor construction for temperature control or industrial fields with intelligent servo drives.

Alpha SF Series power servo cables bring a new level of flexibility to the integration and monitoring of servo drives. Designed specifically for connecting power between the supply and servo motors, drives, and controllers, Series SF cables feature a flexible TPE jacket and PVC/nylon insulation to make them suitable for flexing applications that require continuous movement. The UL listed cables meet the requirements of NFPA 79, allowing them to be used in industrial machinery applications. The cables are available in two configurations. The power cable has four conductors for power and ground. The composite cable adds two additional individually shielded twisted pairs for brake or temperature control.

• 18 – 8 AWG (0.96 – 8.5 mm2) conductor size range
• Tight bend radius: 10x the cable diameter
• Meets NFPA Standard 79 for industrial machinery
• Color-coded and numbered power conductors: black for power and green/yellow for ground
Color-coded twisted pairs: black/red and black/white
• Other jacket colors and shielding available on request
• Ideal for machine tools, pick and place equipment, Cartesian and articulated motion control, and automated material handling systems
• Individually shielded pairs for excellent EMI protection
