The MKE098B-058-AP0-BENN is a high-performance synchronous servo motor from Bosch Rexroth Indramat in the MKE Synchronous Motors series. This Product type is designed for potentially explosive areas and features a robust Housing Standard Compliance of ATEX for safe operation under hazardous conditions. Measuring a Motor Size of 98, it integrates an advanced Encoder Model S1 optical Singleturn system with Encoder Increments of 128 signal periods for precise position feedback. The motor’s construction includes a Shaft Design with a Shaft Detail keyway acc. to DIN 6885-1 and a sealing ring, providing reliable mechanical coupling and environmental protection. With a dry weight optimized for industrial applications, this unit operates without a Holding Brake to streamline installation and reduce maintenance complexity.
Technical excellence is at the core of the MKE098B-058-AP0-BENN’s capabilities. It delivers a Torque Constant @ 20°C of 1.09 Nm/A, enabling high torque density under variable load conditions. The Voltage Constant @ 20°C of 70.0 V/min⁻¹ ensures smooth, linear response across its speed range, while a low Rotor Moment of Inertia of 0.00430 kg·m² enhances dynamic performance and rapid acceleration. Electro-mechanical integration is further supported by a Connection Type terminal box mounted on the Connection Direction B-side for straightforward cabling in compact machine layouts. Noise levels are kept to a professional standard, with a Sound Pressure Level of 61.8 (±3) dB[A], ensuring a quieter work environment without sacrificing output.
Operational reliability has been carefully engineered into every aspect of this servo motor. The ATEX-certified housing protects internal components from dust, dirt, and potential explosive gases, while the sealed shaft keyway prevents contamination ingress. The absence of a holding brake simplifies the motor’s mechanical footprint, reducing downtime associated with brake maintenance. Precision feedback from the S1 encoder system maintains repeatable positioning, and the robust encapsulation withstands repeated thermal cycles without degradation. Regular surface cleaning is recommended to preserve optimal heat radiation and maintain peak performance over the motor’s service life.
Integration of the MKE098B-058-AP0-BENN into modern drive architectures is straightforward, with standardized dimensions and connection protocols enabling seamless retrofits or new installations. It pairs effectively with Bosch Rexroth drive controllers to form a complete high-performance drive system, particularly in industries such as metal forming, food processing, paper handling, and machine tools. The motor’s explosion-proof certification and precise feedback capabilities make it ideal for applications that demand both safety and high dynamic response. With its combination of rugged construction, ATEX compliance, and advanced encoder technology, this servo motor meets the exacting requirements of today’s automated manufacturing environments.
