Product Description:

The HCS02.1E-W0028 is a drive controller built by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and assigned to the HCS IndraDrive Controllers series. It is intended to command servo or induction motors in automated production cells, forming the interface between motion commands generated by higher-level PLCs and the mechanical axes on the factory floor. By processing feedback signals and applying calculated pulse-width-modulated voltages, the unit regulates torque, speed, or position to meet the real-time demands of conveyors, packaging stations, or pick-and-place gantries. This closed-loop control helps the drive respond to changing load conditions while keeping axis motion stable during synchronized machine cycles.

Thermal management is handled through internal air cooling through an integrated blower, and the self-contained fan channels cabinet air across heat-dissipating fins without separate ductwork. That arrangement keeps the cooling path inside the cabinet and supports compact panel layouts. For dynamic events such as rapid accelerations, the power stage can deliver up to 28 A of peak current. Application coverage extends across a continuous 1.5 to 11 kW power range, so one frame can support multiple motor ratings. An infeeding and regenerative power supply scheme permits both energy intake and return to the shared DC bus, which is useful in systems with repeated acceleration and deceleration cycles. Design 1 denotes the first electrical revision and provides a clear reference for wiring compatibility.

Within the HCS02 product line, this model occupies the low-current tier while keeping the same basic control architecture as related units. Classified as an HCS Drive Controller, it combines encoder evaluation, parameter memory, and safe torque off circuitry within a single housing to reduce auxiliary modules. This integrated layout keeps the drive compact while still supporting coordinated motion tasks in automated equipment. Shared libraries and telegram structures used across the range help maintain consistent integration in multi-axis systems.
