Product Description:
The IKG4018 motor power cable is produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the IKG Motor Power Cables series. Engineered for servo axes that operate inside drag-chain carriers, the cable combines motor phases, brake leads, and feedback pairs in a single jacket so that drives can supply power and monitoring signals to moving carriages. Its construction supports repetitive motion in pick-and-place modules, gantry systems, and other high-cycle machinery while maintaining reliable, consistent electrical parameters.
A bending life of 5,000,000 cycles lets machine builders schedule long preventive-maintenance intervals. When the cable is secured, a minimum bend radius of 5 × D protects the core insulation; during dynamic movement it may flex down to 7.5 × D without exceeding mechanical stress limits. An outer diameter of 12.0 mm helps route the assembly through narrow energy chains or conduit interfaces. Electrical performance is stabilised by a low line-to-line capacitance of 0.6 nF/m, which reduces reactive current between inverter and motor at high PWM frequencies.
Conductors with a resistance of 19.5 Ω/km limit I²R losses along extended runs, ensuring the voltage seen at the motor terminals stays within tolerance. The core layout, listed as 4x1.0 + 2x(2x0.75) mm², segregates power, brake, and sensor pairs for crosstalk control. PUR cladding resists coolants and oils, and the matt surface prevents adhesion inside cable guides. Motion sequences can reach linear accelerations up to 10 m/s² without causing jacket cracking, while continuous conductor temperature may rise to +90 °C in fixed routing. Factory-assembled connectors INS0542, INK0653, and INS0622 simplify plug-and-play installation.
