Product Description:

The HCS01.1E-W0003-A-02 drive controller is manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat as part of the HCS IndraDrive Controllers series. It forms the power and control interface between a three-phase mains supply and a servo or induction motor, converting line voltage into a precisely regulated DC link and generating pulse-width-modulated output phases. Within an automation cell, the unit executes torque and velocity commands from a higher-level motion processor, enabling coordinated positioning, speed holding, and rapid acceleration on compact single-axis machines such as handling modules, packaging stations, or indexing tables.

For thermal management, the controller relies on internal air cooling that circulates across heat-generating components through an integrated blower, eliminating the need for external ductwork in a control cabinet. It tolerates a supply window of 3 × AC 110–230 V ±10%, allowing operation on low-voltage three-phase networks used in laboratory, assembly, and light-process environments. During dynamic events, the output stage can source a device peak current of 3 A, covering servomotors whose continuous demand is low yet still requires short bursts of torque for indexing or pick-and-place moves. Diagnostics and parameter structure follow the HCS Drive Controller profile, so fieldbus objects align with the broader IndraDrive platform for system integration.

The unit must be installed inside an enclosure because its protection category is IP20, which guards against fingers and solid objects but not sprayed liquids. The unit is design version 1, indicating the first release in this configuration. It uses the line code HCS01, which keeps the footprint and mounting pattern consistent with sister modules rated up to 6 A. Its energy exchange mode is infeeding and DC-bus-fed operation; the controller can feed a common DC bus when regenerating or draw from it when motoring, supporting modular multi-axis systems without external braking resistors.
