Product Description:

The HCS01.1E-W0018-A-03-B-ET-EC-PB-NN-NN-FW is a drive controller from the HCS IndraDrive Controllers series produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat. It belongs to the HCS01 line and carries design version 1. As a compact servo inverter, it links the power electronics with motion control functions to regulate motor torque and speed in automated machinery. It accepts PLC commands, converts three-phase mains power into controlled motor output, and supports coordinated axis movement in packaging, handling, and similar equipment.

This controller communicates through the MultiEthernet platform, so a single hardware port can be used for EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, or EtherCAT without add-on cards. Its control section is delivered in the BASIC configuration, which provides standard motion functions for general automation tasks. Heat is removed by internal air cooling through an integrated blower, so the unit does not require cabinet ducting. The power stage supplies up to 18 A of peak current to the connected motor, allowing short acceleration or deceleration bursts above the continuous level. It operates from a three-phase supply of 3 × AC 200…500 V ±10%, which supports use on a wide range of industrial mains. Feedback is accepted over the Encoder IndraDyn Hiperface/EnDat 2.1/2.2 channel for closed-loop position control.

For fieldbus connectivity with legacy controllers, a dedicated port supports PROFIBUS, permitting cyclic data exchange and diagnostic access alongside the Ethernet channel. The housing has an IP20 rating, so the unit is intended for installation inside a closed control cabinet where basic finger protection is sufficient. Because the power section is designed for infeeding and fed operation, it can share a common DC bus and transfer regenerative energy between connected axes. The unit is supplied without an integrated safety interface, so required protective functions must be handled by external safety devices.
