Product Description:

The HCS01.1E-W0018-A-02-B-ET-EC-EP-NN-NN-FW is a drive controller produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the HCS IndraDrive Controllers series. It works as an axis inverter that receives command data, converts incoming power, and supplies controlled current to a matched motor. In automated equipment, it supports accurate velocity and position control for tasks such as material handling, printing, and light machining. This arrangement allows the controller to link the PLC command layer with the mechanical movement of the axis in a compact cabinet-mounted format.

The power section accepts a three-phase supply of 3 x AC 110...230 V ±10%, which allows operation on low-voltage industrial networks. The enclosure has an internal protection rating of IP20, so the unit is intended for installation inside a protective control cabinet. Heat is removed by internal air cooling generated by an integrated blower, which eliminates the need for external ducting. The inverter can deliver up to 18 A of peak current, making it suitable for small to medium motor applications that require responsive acceleration and controlled stopping.

Motion commands and diagnostic data are exchanged through the MultiEthernet interface, which supports common industrial Ethernet communication options on the same platform. The installed control section is the BASIC variant, providing standard positioning functions for general axis control. Feedback is handled through an Encoder IndraDyn Hiperface/EnDat 2.1/2.2 input, allowing the drive to read absolute position information from compatible rotary or linear feedback devices. Power sharing on the DC bus is supported through an infeeding and regenerative power supply concept, which allows multiple controllers to operate together in a common group. Configuration data is stored in a detachable memory module connected to the control section, and the hardware is part of the HCS01 line.
