Product Description:
The IKG4254 cable is a dedicated motor power lead engineered by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the IKG Motor Power Cables series. It transfers inverter output to synchronous or induction motors in plant automation where cable runs are routed through moving carriers and require consistent electrical performance. The cable’s construction and dimensions allow direct termination with standard Rexroth drive connectors, providing a matched link between cabinet hardware and machine-side actuators in conveyor, packaging, and assembly lines. Its role is limited to power transmission because separate feedback lines carry position data.
The external diameter measures 18.5 mm, allowing conduit and gland plates to be sized accurately. During dynamic routing, the flexible portion may be bent to a minimum radius of 7.5 × D, which limits copper stress and helps the shielding braid maintain coverage. The conductor resistance is 3.30 Ω/km at 20 °C, minimizing voltage drop over long machine segments. In stationary panel zones, the conductors tolerate continuous service at temperatures up to 90 °C, supporting heavy load cycles without premature insulation aging. A wear-resistant PUR sheath resists oils and coolants while preventing weld spatter from adhering to the cable surface. This jacket material also protects the internal conductors from abrasion as the cable moves through carrier systems.
Under continuous motion, the cable experiences high inertial forces from carrier movement and supports accelerations up to 10 m/s² without conductor corkscrewing. When flexed, the copper bundle may reach a core temperature of 80 °C, which is accommodated by the insulation selected for moving segments. The cable is compatible with drag chains, allowing repeated movement over long travel distances without jacket cracking or shield breakage. It supports flexible installation on gantries, pick-and-place heads, and other moving axes that require dependable motor power during rapid, synchronized movement. Proper routing within the permitted bend radius helps prevent concentrated mechanical stress where the cable enters or exits a moving carrier.
