Product Description:
The IKS4153 is an encoder feedback cable produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the IKS Encoder Cables series. This preassembled lead is intended for servo axes where incremental or absolute position data must be carried from a motor-mounted encoder to a drive controller without signal loss. By integrating factory-terminated connectors that match Rexroth feedback interfaces, the cable shortens installation time and ensures consistent impedance, both of which are important for high-resolution motion tasks in assembly cells, packaging machines, and material-handling lines.
In dynamic machine layouts the IKS4153 is rated for 5 million bending cycles, allowing continuous movement in energy chains. When routed permanently, a minimum bend is 5 x D, while reciprocating applications must observe the larger 7.5 x D radius to avoid conductor fatigue. The assembly is supplied in a compact 1.0 m length so excess slack is not introduced inside the cabinet. A polyethylene insulation system withstands a control-wire potential of 300 V between conductors and shield, and the cable is cleared for drag-chain use, meaning outer jacket abrasion and torsion have been tested for repetitive travel paths.
The copper conductors are specified for continuous operation up to 80 °C, enabling reliable feedback even in warm control enclosures. On the encoder side, the harness terminates to a Clamp Terminal 10-Pin block that accepts stranded leads formed with a Crimp Contact; the braid is bonded to ground through a ring cable lug to reduce electromagnetic coupling. The drive-side interface is a M23 12-Pin (Pin) connector with 80°/-120° coding and the E pin pattern, providing keyed engagement that prevents mis-alignment during service. Together these mechanical details preserve shielding integrity and assure deterministic signal timing over the short run.
