IKG4107 by Bosch Rexroth Indramat

The IKG4107 motor power cable is produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and belongs to the IKG Motor Power Cables series. This flexible cable carries three-phase power and auxiliary signals from a servo drive to its matched motor inside automated machines. Within an installation, it links moving axes to the control cabinet, allowing the drive to supply current and support brake or sensor circuits without separate wiring. Its flexible construction suits dynamic handling robots, gantries, and positioning systems where a service loop or cable track is required for repeated motion.

The cable's mechanical endurance is rated at 5,000,000 bending cycles, indicating how many flex movements it can withstand before conductor fatigue becomes a concern. Inside the sheath, the conductors use a composite layout of 4x6.0 + 2x(2x1.0) + 2x(2x1.5) mm²; the four 6.0 mm² cores carry motor phase current, while the paired 1.0 mm² and 1.5 mm² circuits serve brake or sensor functions. Motion in an energy chain is limited to a peak linear acceleration of 10 m/s² and a travel speed of 5 m/s, helping keep tensile and bending loads within the intended operating range. The circular jacket keeps the overall cross-section to 18.5 mm in diameter, which supports compact routing through drag-chain channels, machine openings, and cabinet cable entries.

An outer sheath colored Orange (RAL 2003) provides quick visual identification of motor power wiring in busy machine layouts. The material is a halogen-free PUR blend that resists oils, welding sparks, and coolant splashes commonly found in industrial cells. Conductors may operate continuously up to +90 °C, so thermal rise from sustained current or surrounding heat does not prematurely damage the insulation system. Because the cable is rated for drag chain use, its stranding and jacket structure support repeated travel while helping maintain stable electrical performance over long moving distances.
