The Bosch Rexroth Indramat IKS0056 is part of the IKS Encoder Cables series and features a total shield design with an orange PUR outer jacket. This cable supports up to two million bending cycles and has an outer diameter of 8.7 mm. It operates in temperatures ranging from -30 to +80 degrees Celsius, with supply wires of 2x0.5 mm² and control wires at 2x(2x0.25 mm²) cross-section.

Product Description:
The IKS0056 encoder cable belongs to the IKS Encoder Cables series produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat. Designed as the feedback link between Indramat encoders and drive controllers, the cable transmits differential position signals while resisting mechanical stress in continuously moving machine axes. Its PUR outer jacket and total shielding permit reliable data transfer in harsh automation environments such as gantry loaders or robotic joints.
To withstand factory motion cycles the cable is rated for 2,000,000 bending cycles, a figure that indicates how many articulated strokes the conductors and insulation can survive before fatigue becomes critical. Signal conductors are arranged in a 2x(2x0.25 mm²) twisted-pair layout, minimizing crosstalk and maintaining impedance for high-speed encoder pulses. A high-visibility Orange (RAL 2003) sheath simplifies routing checks on crowded cable trays. For installations in static harnesses the minimum permitted loop is 5 x D, ensuring copper strands are not overstressed around clamps or guides. The PUR jacket, combined with a total braid foil shield, also offers abrasion and oil resistance required in metal-cutting cells.
Dynamic carriers subject the assembly to tighter articulation; therefore the flexible routing limit tightens to 7.5 x D, a radius that protects the inner core during continuous track motion. Thermal limits are equally defined: operation can continue up to +80 °C without jacket deformation, while storage or fixed use must tolerate lows of -30 °C. An outer diameter of 8.7 mm balances mechanical strength with bend capability, and dedicated 2 x 0.5 mm² supply cores reduce voltage drop to the encoder electronics. These characteristics complement the shield design and bending-cycle rating, completing the mechanical profile outlined above.
Wake Industrial stocks the IKS0056 for immediate purchase. Same-day shipping options are available for time-critical repairs, and each cable is covered by a 1-year warranty. Quotations issued for this part remain valid for 30 days.
