Product Description:
The RKG0058 cable is produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the RKG Encoder Cables series. It is an encoder cable intended to transmit position and speed feedback between servo motors and drive controllers in automated machinery, maintaining signal integrity during continuous motion and high cycle rates.
Mechanically, the cable has an outer diameter of 10.0 mm, and its conductor set is arranged as 4x0.5 + 5x(2x0.14) mm², providing separate paths for encoder channels and auxiliary lines. The jacket is made of PUR, a material chosen for abrasion and oil resistance while remaining flexible in energy-chains. The design supports 5 Million bending cycles under defined test conditions, and it tolerates fixed installation loops down to 5 x D without kinking. These figures indicate suitability for repetitive linear or torsional motion in pick-and-place gantries and palletizing units.
For dynamic routing in drag chains the cable can accelerate up to 10 m/s² and still maintain signal fidelity, provided the moving loop remains at 7.5 x D. Signal insulation is halogen-free, reducing corrosive gas release in a fire, and the bright sheath coloured RAL 2003 (Orange) aids quick identification inside control cabinets. Flexible and fixed operation share an ambient range of -40 to +80 °C, so no derating is required when a machine warms after storage. This wide thermal envelope allows equipment to start cold in unheated facilities and continue operating as internal cabinet temperatures rise during production shifts. The cable type is explicitly rated for encoder duties, and it is approved for continuous drag-chain service; identical storage limits allow the reel to be held in the same temperature window before installation.
Frequently Asked Questions about RKG0058:
Q: How many bending cycles can the Bosch Rexroth Indramat RKG0058 encoder cable handle?
A: The RKG0058 encoder cable is designed to withstand up to 5 million bending cycles, making it suitable for applications with frequent motion.
Q: Can the RKG0058 cable be used in drag chain systems that require flexible cabling?
A: The RKG0058 is suitable for use in drag chain applications where high flexibility is required.
Q: What material is used for the outer jacket of the RKG0058 encoder cable?
A: The jacket material of the RKG0058 encoder cable is made from PUR, offering enhanced durability and resistance to mechanical stress.
Q: What is the minimum bend radius for the RKG0058 cable in fixed installations?
A: The minimum bend radius for the RKG0058 cable in fixed installations is 5 times the cable diameter.
Q: Is the Bosch Rexroth Indramat RKG0058 encoder cable halogen-free?
A: The RKG0058 encoder cable is halogen-free, which reduces the release of toxic gases in the event of a fire.
