Product Description:
The RKS0006 is a multi-core control cable produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the RKS Control Cables series. Designed for routing feedback and drive logic signals between Indramat servo components and control cabinets, the cable aids precise coordination of motion axes in automated cells. Its construction supports fixed installation inside machine frames as well as dynamic movement on energy chains, giving system integrators a single reference part for mixed static and flexing cable runs. All these features position it as a versatile signal carrier across production lines.
The mechanical rating of the cable permits up to 0.5 million continuous bending cycles, so drag-chain applications with frequent strokes remain within the conductor’s fatigue limits. Each of the signal pairs uses a conductor cross-section of 34x0.25 mm², providing low-resistance paths for encoder or I/O currents while keeping overall bundle flexibility high. For routing inside fixed cable trays, the minimum bend radius is limited to 7xD, whereas moving layouts must respect a larger arc of 12xD to prevent shield fracture. The overall sheath diameter of 10.2 mm allows compact gland selection and simplifies routing through narrow drag-chain channels.
The external properties focus on installation safety and electrical segregation. A high-visibility Orange outer jacket manufactured from PVC makes the cable easy to trace in dense harnesses and provides resistance to common shop lubricants. The surface is Matte, reducing glare under task lighting and improving grip during dressing operations. Two dedicated power cores with a cross-section of 2x0.5 mm² deliver sensor supply voltages independent of the finer control conductors, enabling stable reference power even when the bundle is subjected to continual motion and ambient vibration.
