Product Description:

The RKG0014 is a flexible encoder cable from the RKG Encoder Cables series produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat. Designed for signal and power transmission between IndraDrive feedback devices and controllers, the cable supports continual motion inside drag-chain guides common to robotics and modular machine tools. Its construction combines fine-strand copper, a total shield, and a matt adhesion-free jacket to maintain data integrity and limit mechanical wear in dynamic industrial automation environments.

For motion applications that cycle continuously, the cable endures up to 5,000,000 bending cycles without conductor fatigue. When routed in moving carriers it observes a dynamic bend radius of 7.5xD, while fixed installations require only a 5xD radius to avoid kinking. An overall diameter of 10.0 mm keeps harness dimensions compact, and the structure is verified for drag-chain use so operators can integrate it into high-duty cable tracks with confidence. The total shield reduces electromagnetic interference on encoder signals, and the PUR jacket remains abrasion-resistant even after extended flexing.

Nine control cores sized 9x 0.25 mm² carry differential encoder pairs, whereas two power lines of 2x 1.0 mm² supply sensor electronics. Logic conductors are rated for 300 V, matching typical encoder supply requirements, and the halogen-free material selection minimises toxic emission during a fire. A temperature window of 90 °C for fixed runs and 80 °C for flexing service supports cabinet as well as moving-axis installation. Chemically resistant PUR sheathing also prevents adhesion to oily machine beds, completing the cable’s suitability for harsh production floors.

Wake Industrial keeps the RKG0014 in stock, offers a 1-year warranty on every purchase, and can arrange same-day shipping; additionally, quotations remain valid for 30 days to aid maintenance budgeting.
