Product Description:

The DDS02.1-W015-DL20-00 is a digital AC servo drive controller developed by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the DDS Drive Controllers series. In an automation cell, it functions as a closed-loop drive module that converts command signals into precise motor currents for coordinated motion in machines such as pick-and-place gantries and packaging lines. The unit integrates into a multi-axis rack while regulating one motor channel, making it suitable for installations that require compact single-axis control. This arrangement allows the drive to support accurate axis movement without requiring a separate controller for each basic motion task.

This controller communicates with the higher-level control system through a single-axis position control interface, allowing the PLC to send target positions and velocities directly to the drive. For motor monitoring, it relies on digital servo feedback, so incremental or absolute encoders return real-time position data to the regulator loop. Thermal management is handled by internal air cooling, which draws cabinet air across the heat sink and requires unobstructed airflow inside the enclosure. The power stage is rated for 15 A of continuous output current, which is the maximum RMS phase current the connected motor can receive under steady load. Electrical components are housed behind an IP20 barrier, providing finger-safe protection for drives installed inside a closed control cabinet. Together, these features support stable operation in compact cabinet layouts where feedback accuracy and airflow are both important.

The drive delivers full performance across an ambient range of 0–45 °C, allowing it to operate beside other heat-generating devices without additional conditioning. During storage or shipping, the electronic assemblies tolerate temperatures from -30–85 °C, which helps protect the unit while it is not powered. Installation altitude is limited to 1000 m, because reduced air density above that height lowers cooling effectiveness. The unit is version 1, indicating the first revision of this model. These operating limits keep the controller within conditions that support reliable electrical regulation and consistent thermal behavior.
