Product Description:

The CLM01.3-A-E-4-0-FW module is produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the CLM Axis Positioning Control Modules series. It is a position control unit used to coordinate multi-axis motion in packaging, printing, and material-handling equipment. The device accepts feedback from incremental or absolute encoders and provides command signals to the drive system, allowing programmed feed lengths, repeatable positioning, and synchronized machine movements within automated machinery. That arrangement supports applications in which several moving sections must stay aligned during each production cycle.

This controller supervises up to 4 axes, so a single unit can handle synchronized tasks across several machine sections. Its control electronics are powered from a 24 VDC supply, which keeps logic power separate from higher-energy drive circuits. Feed length commands can be programmed with a resolution of 0.01 mm, supporting tight tolerance requirements on cut-to-length or indexing stations. For absolute feedback channels, the board can source up to 400 mA per encoder, helping maintain stable reference signals over long cable runs. The front panel incorporates 20 membrane keys that provide direct access to configuration parameters, job numbers, and diagnostic functions without an external programmer.

The housing has an IP 10 protection class, so the module is intended for installation inside control cabinets where falling dirt may be present but moisture is excluded. Process data is shown on a four-line display, which supports menu navigation and alarm-code viewing at the unit. Cabinet space is conserved because the housing has a depth of 325 mm, a width of 105 mm, and a height of 390 mm, allowing compact placement beside power supplies and drive amplifiers. The assembly weighs 6 kg, so standard mounting plates can support it without special reinforcement. Expansion slots on the backplane accommodate optional interfaces, allowing the base hardware to adapt to future fieldbus or memory requirements.
