Product Description:

The DDS03.1-W030-RS18-02-FW is a servo drive controller manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the DDS Drive Controllers series. Installed with compatible power supplies and motors, it provides closed-loop control for AC servomotors that move machine axes in production cells, packaging lines, and material-handling systems. By converting reference commands from higher-level automation into timed current waveforms, the unit supports accurate torque, speed, and positioning control during repeated start, stop, and indexing cycles. Its modular housing fits rack-based cabinets, and the slide-in format allows the drive to be installed alongside other coordinated axis modules without requiring a separate enclosure.

Communication with the control network is handled through the SERCOS interface, which supports synchronous cyclic data exchange and standardized diagnostic telegrams between the drive and the master control. The power stage can deliver a continuous output of 30 A, giving it suitable current capacity for moderate-inertia axes and general motion tasks. Cooling is provided by internal air cooling, so cabinet airflow must remove heat from the unit during operation rather than relying on an external blower. Motor position is detected through resolver feedback, allowing stable vector control in environments where optical encoders may be less suitable because of vibration, dust, or temperature variation.

The unit belongs to Line 03 and has Version 1. It functions as a Digital AC Servo Drive Controller, so torque, velocity, and position loops are processed in real time while status data is returned to the master controller. A shared backplane connection and consistent module height allow the drive to be installed beside matching components in multi-axis racks. This layout keeps power and control modules organized within the cabinet and supports coordinated operation across several axes driven from the same system architecture.
