Product Description:

The HCS01.1E-W0013-A-02 is a compact drive controller produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat as part of the HCS IndraDrive Controllers series. Serving as the closed-loop interface between a mains supply and a synchronous or induction motor, this unit handles speed, torque, and positioning commands inside automated machinery. By integrating power electronics and control logic into a single module, it streamlines cabinet layouts and simplifies setup in conveyor zones, pick-and-place axes, and light-duty packaging stations.

Its device section can deliver a peak output of 13 A, allowing short bursts of acceleration or rapid deceleration without saturating the linked inverter stage. The power section accepts 3 x AC 110...230 V ±10%, so the same hardware can be used on low-voltage three-phase lines common in laboratory or small machine cells. Thermal management relies on internal air cooling driven by an integrated blower, which pulls cabinet air through the heat sink and removes the need for external ductwork. The housing is rated IP20, so energized parts are finger-safe but the unit must be mounted in an enclosure. Energy can flow in both directions through an infeeding and fed power supply configuration, which supports regenerative braking and common DC bus sharing among multiple axes.

The electronic layout corresponds to Design Version 1. Within the line code HCS01, this model occupies the lowest continuous current class, matching small servo motors that do not require external braking resistors. As an HCS Drive Controller, it supports IndraWorks tools, standardized parameter telegrams, and SERCOS or EtherCAT network profiles used across the series. Integration with upstream safety relays is simplified because consistent STO terminal assignments allow the controller to work with contactors, fuses, and emergency-off chains.
