Product Description:

The IKS4035 is a flexible encoder feedback cable from Bosch Rexroth Indramat and belongs to the IKS Encoder Cables series. It links incremental or absolute measuring systems with Rexroth drive controllers so position data is transferred reliably during dynamic machine motion. By matching the electrical characteristics used by these control systems, the cable serves as a dedicated interface for drag-chain routing in packaging equipment, gantries, and material-handling axes where continual bending and noise suppression are necessary.

Its mechanical endurance is rated for 5,000,000 bending cycles, indicating the number of drag-chain movements the conductors and insulation are designed to withstand in repeated flexing service. Signal integrity is supported by shielded twisted pairs that follow the INK0209 bulk cable design, helping differential encoder channels resist electromagnetic interference. The overall diameter of 8.8 mm supports clamp and conduit sizing while still allowing compact routing in cable chains. A Total shield made of tinned copper braid encloses the control and power cores and provides a low-impedance path to ground for high-frequency noise. Two power lines with a cross-section of 2x1.0 mm² supply the encoder electronics and help reduce voltage drop over longer cable runs.

The controller side terminates in a D-Sub 15-Pin (INS0760) controller plug, while the measuring head end carries a matching D-Sub 15-Pin (AEH) encoder plug, allowing direct connection without custom wiring. A wear-resistant PUR jacket in RAL 2003 protects the braid from oils and cutting fluids and remains suitable for storage from −30 °C to +40 °C. During operation, the copper conductors may reach a maximum of 80 °C, so the cable can be installed near warm gearboxes or motor assemblies without overstressing the insulation. The jacket also supports the flexibility needed for repeated motion in drag-chain applications.
