Product Description:

The HDS03.2-W100N-HS73-01-FW is a modular drive controller manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and supplied as part of the HDS Drive Controllers series. Installed in DIAX04 multi-axis racks, this unit interfaces with servo power sections to regulate synchronous and asynchronous motors in automated machinery. By processing set-point data and managing current loops, the controller provides coordinated motion and positioning functions for packaging lines, printing presses, and material-handling equipment. It also converts command values from the higher-level control system into the regulated signals needed for stable multi-axis operation.

The drive exchanges real-time commands over the SERCOS fiber-optic bus, so parameter blocks, diagnostics, and interpolation data are transmitted deterministically between the controller and the master PLC. The controller can deliver 100 A of continuous output current, allowing it to support high-torque axes or multiple parallel motor windings without current derating in normal operation. Thermal energy is removed by a built-in air blower, which supports heat sink cooling without external cabinet fans. The device belongs to the DIAX04 family and is part of Line 03, matching related chassis components in the same platform.

The unit is Version 2, indicating a later release in this product line. It retains the universal slot format of the HDS Drive Controller product type, so it fits standard rack layouts and uses the same basic connection arrangement. Parameter sets covering velocity loops, torsion compensation, and monitoring thresholds can be downloaded through the communication channel to adjust axis response for different load inertias and duty cycles. This allows the controller to support stable speed regulation and consistent positioning when machine loads change during operation.
