2. INSTALLATION
2.4 Cable stress
(1) The way of clamping the cable must be fully examined so that flexing stress and cable's own weight
stress are not applied to the cable connection.
(2) For use in any application where the servo motor moves, fix the cables (encoder, power supply, brake)
supplied with the servo motor, and flex the optional encoder cable or the power supply and brake
wiring cables. Use the optional encoder cable within the flexing life range. Use the power supply and
brake wiring cables within the flexing life of the cables.
(3) Avoid any probability that the cable sheath might be cut by sharp chips, rubbed by a machine corner
or stamped by workers or vehicles.
(4) For installation on a machine where the servo motor will move, the flexing radius should be made as
large as possible. Refer to section 11.4 for the flexing life.
