Product Description:

The HDS04.1-W200N-HA42-01-FW is a drive controller manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat in the HDS Drive Controllers series. It is used in multi-axis automation racks, where it regulates the current and voltage delivered to a servo motor so machine position, speed, and torque follow commands from a PLC or motion computer. Closed-loop control helps coordinate axes in packaging equipment, machining centers, and material-handling systems. The unit is intended for applications that require precise response during changing load and speed conditions. This operating role supports synchronized motion where several axes must respond accurately to the same control system.

The control board uses an analog command interface, so velocity or torque references can be provided as ±10 V signals or similar differential levels. Within the DIAX04 platform, the module fits a single rack slot and can share a common DC bus with adjacent axes during dynamic operation. Its continuous output capability is 200 A, which is the sustained motor phase current available without thermal derating. Heat from the power section is removed by a built-in air blower, which keeps drive cooling independent from the cabinet airflow. The unit is classified as an HDS Drive Controller for position and velocity control tasks.

The product is part of Line 04, which identifies the fourth design line of this drive type. It is built as Version 1, indicating the initial hardware iteration for this model. The drive uses the same backplane connector arrangement, airflow path, and diagnostic LED pattern found on this platform. That layout preserves the required mechanical fit in the rack and keeps the cooling path aligned with adjacent modules. Shared physical alignment also helps maintain orderly integration in dense multi-axis cabinets.
