Product Description:

The HCS01.1E-W0008-A-03-B-ET-EC-EP-S4-NN-FW is a drive controller produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the HCS IndraDrive Controllers series. As a closed-loop power electronics module, it regulates torque, speed, and position of connected synchronous or induction motors in automated machinery and material-handling cells, allowing one drive stage to support both dynamic motion and steady-speed operation. The control section is identified as BASIC, which provides the standard motion command set used with this configuration and supports typical axis control tasks without requiring a specialized control section.

This controller links to higher-level PLCs through a MultiEthernet port that supports standard industrial Ethernet protocols without additional option cards. The internal electronics sit inside the HCS01 frame and are protected to IP20, so the device must be installed inside a control cabinet. Input power is accepted from 3 × AC 200–500 V ±10%, allowing the controller to operate from common low- and medium-voltage plant grids. Heat generated by the IGBT bridge is removed by internal air cooling from an integrated blower, so no external ducting is required. During acceleration bursts, the unit can deliver a peak output current of 8 A, which supports short overload demands during rapid starts or brief speed changes. Position feedback is handled through a multifunction encoder port that supports Encoder IndraDyn Hiperface/EnDat 2.1/2.2 signals, allowing direct connection of standard Bosch Rexroth servo motors without separate feedback adapters.

Power exchange with the DC bus is managed by an infeeding and regenerative power supply topology, so the unit can either draw energy from or return energy to a common bus during operation. This arrangement supports shared energy flow within a multi-axis system when one axis decelerates while another accelerates. The cabinet-mounted format keeps the power section enclosed while leaving network and feedback connections accessible for system integration.
