Requirements for circular connectors for CNC machine tools
For CNC machine tools, customers may face the following pain points when using circular connectors

The pain points in CNC machine tool connection

High current carrying capacity
Servo motors and power systems in CNC machine tools often require high currents to support their dynamic performance. Connectors must have sufficient current carrying capacity to avoid overheating and potential electrical failures. Customers need to pay attention to the rated current of the connector to ensure its stable operation under high load conditions.

Signal integrity and anti-interference capability
In high frequency and electromagnetic interference environments, the signal transmission stability of the connector is crucial. If the connector anti-interference ability is insufficient, it may lead to signal loss or error, which directly affects the control accuracy and processing quality of the machine tool. Therefore, customers need to choose a connector with good shielding performance to ensure signal integrity.

Environmental adaptability and protection level
CNC machine tools usually work in changeable industrial environments, which may face high temperature, humidity, dust and liquid pollution. The protection level of the connector, such as IP67 or higher, must meet these environmental requirements to prevent external factors from causing failure.

Connection stability and durability
In the dynamic operation of CNC machine tools, the stability of the connector is very important. Unstable connections can result in poor or loose contact, which can lead to equipment downtime or failure. Customers need to pay attention to the mechanical durability and vibration resistance of connectors to ensure reliability in long-term use.

System compatibility
CNC machine tools need to be integrated with a variety of devices and control systems, and connector compatibility becomes a key consideration. If the connector does not match the existing system, it can lead to additional adaptation costs and technical challenges, affecting the overall system efficiency and performance.

Economy of maintenance and replacement
In industrial environments, connector maintenance and replacement frequency may be higher, and customers need to consider the associated economic and time costs. Frequent maintenance and replacement increases production downtime and affects overall operational efficiency.

Ease of installation and operation
The installation convenience of the connector directly affects the commissioning and maintenance efficiency of the machine tool. Complex installation processes can lead to installation errors or delays, and customers need to choose connectors that are well-designed and easy to operate.

cost-effectiveness
While pursuing high performance, customers also need to control the overall cost of connectors, including procurement costs and long-term maintenance costs. The price of high performance connectors can influence a customer's budget decisions, and balancing performance with cost is an important challenge.

Thermal management problem
In the case of high load and long operation, the connector may cause temperature increase due to current. If the thermal management design of the connector is inadequate, it may cause overheating, and even lead to material aging and connection failure.

Insertion and withdrawal life
The number of insertion and removal of the circular connector is directly related to its service life. Frequent insertion and removal may cause contact point wear, which affects signal transmission and current stability. Customers need to pay attention to the mechanical durability of connectors and choose products suitable for high frequency insertion and removal.

Installation space limitation
In some CNC machine tool designs, installation space can be very limited, and customers often face the problem of excessive connector volume or unsuitable shape. This requires connector design with greater compactness and flexibility to adapt to different installation environments.

Shock and shock resistance
CNC machine tools may suffer from vibration and shock during operation, and connectors need to have good vibration and shock resistance to prevent poor contact or damage caused by mechanical stress.

Security considerations
In some application scenarios, the security of the connector is critical. Customers need to ensure that connectors are effectively protected under extreme conditions (such as short circuit, overload, etc.) to avoid safety incidents.

Technical support and service
Customers may need technical support and after-sales service during use to deal with installation, commissioning and maintenance issues. Lack of timely and professional technical support may lead to customer dissatisfaction with the product.
