Product Description:
The IKS4314 is an encoder feedback cable produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for use within its IKS Encoder Cables series. The assembly links motor-mounted position transducers to drive controllers, allowing reliable transmission of incremental or absolute encoder signals in automated machinery. By pairing series-specific mating hardware with shielded conductors, the cable maintains signal integrity over dynamic machine axes. Its mechanical design and material choices match the motion demands of modern handling systems, ensuring that feedback remains stable during continuous flexing cycles.
The core of the IKS4314 is built around INK0209 bulk stock, giving a nominal outside diameter of 8.8 mm. This profile accommodates an encoder cable with total shield that encloses the twisted pairs and supply cores in a braided screen to suppress electromagnetic noise. At the drive end, wiring terminates in a D-sub 15-pin socket that mates to standard feedback interfaces. Signal conductors follow the layout of 4×(2×0.25 mm²) twisted pairs, while motor-mounted electronics draw power through a separate 2×1.0 mm² supply pair. The INK0209 construction uses stranded copper, and the fixed routing radius is limited to 5×D to prevent micro-cracking during installation.
Dynamic applications are addressed by a rating of 5,000,000 bending cycles when the moving radius stays above 7.5×D. Heat build-up is managed through tinned copper conductors that can operate continuously up to 80 °C. The outer sheath is a mechanically tough PUR jacket colored RAL 2003 orange for visibility inside machinery. This housing is halogen-free to reduce corrosive gas release during fire, resists common hydraulic oils, and keeps moisture out through an overall braid shield bonded to the connector housing. Together these properties help preserve encoder accuracy even under rapid robot or gantry motion.
