Product Description:

The HDS04.2-W200N-HA16-01-FW is a drive controller developed by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the HDS Drive Controllers series used in modular multi-axis systems. As an axis module, it receives setpoint data from higher-level motion platforms and modulates motor power in closed-loop automation cells, providing velocity and torque regulation for servo and spindle motors on production machinery. This arrangement supports coordinated motion in machine tools, packaging systems, and transfer equipment where several axes must respond predictably to changing load conditions. By handling the power conversion and control functions in one module, the controller fits centralized drive cabinets that distribute energy and commands across multiple axes.

The unit exchanges setpoints and feedback through an analog interface, so wiring is limited to differential ±10 V signals commonly supplied by existing control hardware. Placement within the DIAX04 controller family allows it to share power supplies and bus bars with other axes installed in the same rack. The power stage is rated for a continuous phase current of 200 A, enabling operation of large synchronous or induction motors without external boosters. Thermal management depends on a built-in air blower that moves cabinet air across the IGBT heat sink and helps keep semiconductor temperatures within their operating range. This setup supports sustained output during demanding motion cycles where high current must be maintained for acceleration or process torque.

The product is part of Line 04, so its mounting hole pattern and connector layout match other second-generation HDS modules. The drive is Version 2, which distinguishes it from the initial release while keeping the control format consistent within the platform. Within the rack, the module can operate on a shared DC bus, where coordinated axes draw from the same central supply section. A central supply section can feed several coordinated axes from the same cabinet, which helps keep the drive system organized in multi-axis installations.
