Product Description:

The IKS4019 is an encoder and control cable produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the IKS Encoder Cables series. Used between motion controllers and feedback devices, the cable delivers position signals and control lines that keep servo loops synchronized in automated machinery. Its construction and connector arrangement are tailored for factory environments where accurate transmission of differential encoder data is required.

This model uses the REG0013 cable type, which establishes the conductor size, insulation system, and overall diameter for predictable electrical performance over the intended cable length. At the drive end, a circular plug carries 12 signal contacts, giving incremental or absolute channels, power conductors, and reference lines dedicated connection points. The mating hardware uses a circular connector with 360-degree shielding to limit electromagnetic interference around the signal contacts. A threaded coupling provides a screw-lock connection, preventing vibration from loosening the plug during continuous machine cycles. Because the cable serves encoder and control functions, each twisted pair inside the bundle maintains impedance suitable for high-speed differential signaling. This arrangement helps preserve feedback quality when the cable is routed near motors, drives, or other equipment that can generate electrical noise.

The opposite side terminates in a 15-pin interface that follows the compact D-Sub profile commonly used on controller backplanes. This receptacle has female contacts, ensuring pin-to-socket polarity that matches compatible encoder modules. A second screw-lock mechanism on this end maintains connector retention without requiring external brackets. A tough PUR outer jacket resists oil, abrasion, and repeated flexing, so drag-chain routing does not compromise insulation integrity. The assembly can be used on circuits rated up to 300 V, accommodating the applicable power and signal conductors within the cable. Continuous shielding between the connectors helps protect transmitted data throughout the cable run. The secure coupling at each end also reduces the risk of intermittent contact when the assembly is exposed to vibration or repetitive machine movement.
