Product Description:
The RKG0056 flexible encoder cable is manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the RKG Encoder Cables series. It forms the feedback link between a motor-mounted sensor and the associated servo drive, transmitting incremental or absolute position data in industrial automation cells. By combining factory-crimped connectors with a continuous-flex construction, the assembly maintains signal integrity in packaging machines, robotic wrists, and other motion platforms that require repeated dynamic bending.
At the heart of the assembly is the bulk cable type REG0011, rated for up to 5,000,000 flexing cycles so chain conveyors can operate without premature conductor fatigue. The core bundle is arranged as 4x0.5 mm² + 5x(2x0.14) pairs, giving four power or reference lines and ten balanced signal cores shielded against electromagnetic noise. Factory termination uses an angled RGS1711 plug on the encoder side and a straight RGS0009 plug for the drive interface, eliminating field crimping and preserving ingress protection. Together these elements ensure deterministic signal flow even when axes accelerate rapidly.
In applications with moving energy chains, mechanical limits are defined by a dynamic bending radius of 7.5xD, while fixed routing in cabinets can observe the smaller static radius of 5xD to prevent conductor stress. The cable sheath is formed from PUR, chosen for abrasion resistance and coolant tolerance, and is molded in the distinctive RAL 2003 orange for quick identification on the machine. An outer diameter of 10.0 mm balances flexibility with crush strength, and the polymer maintains these characteristics across wide temperature ranges.
Wake Industrial stocks this cable and supports same-day shipping when production schedules are tight. Every unit is covered by a 1-year warranty that begins on the invoice date. For budget planning, price quotations remain valid for 30 days.
