Product Description:
The Bosch Rexroth Indramat IKS0721 is a pre-assembled feedback lead offered within the IKS Encoder Cables series. Designed as an encoder connection, it links servo motors and digital drive controllers, transmitting position and speed information while screening electromagnetic noise. By integrating shielding and matched conductor geometry, the cable maintains signal integrity in automated machining centers, pick-and-place gantries, and similar motion-control assemblies.
At the core of its construction is a Encoder (Total Shield) design, meaning every conductor bundle sits beneath a common braid and foil that diverts interference to ground. Four differential feedback channels are built with 4x(2x0.25 mm²) pairs, giving balanced impedance for incremental or absolute sensors. Separate servo logic power is delivered through 2x1.0 mm² supply leads, and the bundle reaches the controller as exactly 10 conductors in total. Despite this conductor count, the outside of the cable measures only 8.8 mm across, allowing tight routing through drag-chain carriers and cabinet glands.
Mechanical endurance is supported by a 5,000,000 continuous bending cycles, so repeated axis motion does not compromise insulation integrity. The outer jacket is extruded from PUR, colored to RAL 2003 (Orange) for immediate circuit identification, and it resists cuts, abrasion, and contact with Mineral Oils, Greases typically present around gearboxes. This polyurethane sheath is halogen-free, reducing corrosive gas release during a fire, and its conductors may operate at up to 80 °C without exceeding thermal limits. Combined with verified oil resistance and a smooth surface that rejects coolant splash, the cable can be installed on moving carriages, rotary tables, or within cable chains where space is restricted and chemical exposure is probable.
