Product Description:
The RKB0006 is a control cable produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and supplied within the RKB Control Cables series. It serves as a pre-assembled signal link between decentralized sensors, actuators, and the controller, simplifying installation work in automated cells and conveyor lines. By combining matched connectors with defined bending tolerances, the cable is intended to maintain reliable data and power continuity even on continuously moving machine axes.
The RKB0006 is classified as a Sensor-Actuator Cable, and it is terminated on the field side with a keyed M12 8-pin plug while the cabinet side carries a compact DSUB 9-pin connector. This pairing enables direct connection to Bosch Rexroth I/O modules without additional adapters. The jacket and conductor bundle are tested for up to 5,000,000 cycles of flex at a dynamic bending radius of 7.5xD, so the cable can be routed through energy-chain carriers or robot dress-packs. Its construction also permits static installation conditions down to the smaller radius discussed below, ensuring consistent impedance and low contact resistance throughout the rated motion life.
When the cable is clamped in fixed trays the allowable curvature tightens to a static figure of 5xD, supporting compact cabinet layouts. The assembly is delivered as a factory-terminated, fully tested Ready-Made product, reducing wiring errors compared with field crimping. Within the catalog, it is identified as the Basic model, indicating the standard PVC sheath and unshielded twisted pairs chosen for general-purpose indoor use. Storage conditions must remain above the lower limit of -30 °C and not exceed 40 °C to preserve insulation elasticity and connector seals before installation.
