Product Description:

The HDS01.1-K015-R is a modular drive controller produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the HDS Drive Controllers series. It serves as the DC link interface and axis supply section in a DIAX04 automation rack, routing bus energy to connected servo power modules. Because it links the shared bus to the axis modules, the unit supports coordinated power distribution across multi-axis systems. By managing current flow and monitoring system status, it supports precise velocity and position control in handling robots, packaging machines, and material processing equipment. That function helps the rack support repeated motion cycles without separating power handling from axis control.

The controller maintains full rated output at elevations up to 1000 m, while higher installations require derating. It uses a Class C insulation system, and normal operation is allowed in ambient temperatures from +5 to +45 °C, with intermittent derated use up to +55 °C. The open housing has an IP10 protection rating, which helps prevent accidental finger contact but does not seal out dust. Because of that open-housing design, the unit is suited to installation inside a protected electrical cabinet rather than in exposed machine locations. For storage or shipment, the electronics can withstand temperatures from -30 to +85 °C.

The controller is identified as Version 1 and is intended for cabinet installation. In the rack, it operates as the central node between the mains supply, a braking resistor, and the individual drives. This arrangement allows bus energy to be distributed across the axis group while operating status is monitored from a single module position. Its modular layout is useful in systems that run demanding cycle times, where several axes must accelerate, decelerate, and hold synchronization without interrupting the shared supply structure.
