The MKE118D-012-AP0-KE6 is a robust servo motor manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat as part of the MKE Synchronous Motors series. This model is engineered for potentially explosive areas and meets the ATEX housing standard compliance. Key features include an Optical encoder, Singleturn Hiperface for high-resolution position feedback and a shaft with keyway designed according to DIN 6885-1. Its primary function is to deliver precise, brushless AC-driven rotary motion in hazardous industrial environments without the need for a holding brake.
In terms of technical specifications, the MKE118D-012-AP0-KE6 has a Voltage Constant @ 20°C (K_EMK 1000) of 263.5 V/min⁻¹ and a Torque Constant @ 20°C of 4.29 Nm/A, ensuring efficient conversion of electrical input into mechanical torque. The rotor’s moment of inertia is 0.03620 kg·m², providing a balanced trade-off between acceleration and stability. Sound pressure level is rated at 61.1 (±3) dB[A], reflecting low-noise operation under nominal conditions. Encoder model S1 offers single-turn position sensing with a maximum speed capability that supports rapid cycle applications.
Additional attributes include a top-mounted Terminal box connection type with a cable entry diameter of 17.0 mm to 19.5 mm, facilitating straightforward installation and maintenance. The motor’s construction and compliance with ATEX standards ensure compatibility with intrinsically safe systems, while the absence of a holding brake reduces mechanical complexity. Shaft details, including the DIN 6885 keyway, enhance coupling reliability and torque transmission. In industrial settings, this servo motor provides high durability, precise motion control, and efficient performance, making it an ideal solution for automation tasks in environments requiring explosion protection.
