Product Description:

The BTV30.1CD-16R-50B-D-030200-FW is a machine control terminal produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the BTV30 Machine Control Terminals series. Intended for CNC installations subject to export restrictions, the unit functions as a front-end operator interface that combines visualization, data entry, and basic drive commands. It provides a local point for viewing machine status, entering program data, and responding to operating conditions without requiring a separate external terminal. By connecting directly to Indramat drive controllers, it serves as a compact node in decentralized automation cells where deterministic motion and spindle sequences can be started or interrupted from the panel itself.

Central processing is handled by a Pentium 166 MHz processor that runs user programs and control-related tasks. Nonvolatile storage uses a 500 MB hard drive for part programs and system data, while a 3.5-inch, 1.44 MB floppy drive supports file transfer and local data loading. Visual feedback comes from a 10.4-inch TFT color display with 640 × 480 pixels, giving adequate resolution for G-code traces, menu navigation, and diagnostic pages. The front panel is rated IP65, and the housing is rated IP20, so the screen and keys are protected against dust and coolant spray when the enclosure is closed, while the enclosure still suits cabinet installation.

Operator interaction is aided by 8 machine function keys on the right-hand side, each tied to PLC events without using extra I/O channels. Alphanumeric input relies on the German BOF keyboard layout, which supports direct entry of code, offsets, and other control data with DIN legends. The chassis fits a control cabinet cutout for slide-in dimensions of 372 × 335 × 200 mm, and the assembly weighs 10.5 kg. Those physical dimensions make the terminal suitable for panel mounting where screen access, key reach, and cabinet depth must be balanced within a compact machine front.
