Product Description:

The DKC10.3-012-3-MGP-01V24 is a drive controller manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and delivered within the DKC Drive Controllers series. It regulates three-phase servo motors by converting stored DC energy into precisely timed output phases for closed-loop position, speed, and torque tasks. Integrated communication slots let the unit tie directly to a host PLC, making it suitable for packaging, printing, and material-handling axes where compact motion modules are preferred. This control structure helps the axis respond quickly to changing load conditions during acceleration, deceleration, and positioning moves. Because the output is electronically commutated, the controller can support repeatable motion profiles and stable speed regulation in indexing and transfer applications.

At the power stage, the controller operates from a DC link held at 300 V. This internal bus level is modulated by the inverter section into motor phase voltages for controlled motion. Under continuous operation, the current available to the load is rated at 12 A, while the supply side is limited to a maximum input of 2.2 A. Thermal energy from the semiconductor bridge reaches 400 W of dissipation at rated current, so forced ventilation is required to keep the heat sink within its allowable temperature range. This variant is an EcoDrive, a product class used for compact servo applications with integrated drive functions.

Application flexibility is expanded through Interface option 10, which reserves the front connector bay for multi-protocol fieldbus cards supplied by the factory. The reserved interface bay also lets the basic power section remain the same while communication options are matched to the machine network. Motion commands are handled by the multi-interface general-purpose control version identified as 01, which manages interpolation, diagnostics, and drive protection without additional add-ons. Mechanical design code 3 establishes the housing geometry and cooling fin layout, and the entire assembly weighs only 1.8 kg, easing installation on densely populated DIN rails. Reliable operation is maintained up to an ambient temperature of 40 °C. Above that level, the drive must be derated to limit internal temperature rise.
