Product Description:

The HDS04.2-W200N-HA38-01-FW is a drive controller manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the HDS Drive Controllers series. Installed beside supply and amplifier modules, it interprets upper-level motion commands and regulates current to the attached servo axes. In a rack-based motion system, the unit handles axis enable functions, fault monitoring, and coordination of multi-axis moves. That arrangement lets the rack supervise several servo channels from a common control structure. This operating role makes it suitable for packaging equipment, pick-and-place robots, and other automated machinery that depends on synchronized axis control.

This controller can deliver a continuous output of 200 A, which is the available continuous current for the controlled axis. Reference values are exchanged through an analog interface, allowing speed or torque setpoints to be issued as ±10 V signals from a PLC or master drive. Thermal management is handled by a built-in air blower that moves cabinet air across the power semiconductors to control internal temperature during sustained load. As part of the DIAX04 platform, the unit uses the rack format and electrical arrangement expected by compatible modules in the same system. The product is part of Line 04, which uses the connector layout and mechanical depth associated with that design line.

The drive controller is Version 2. This revision supports systems that continue to use voltage-referenced command loops rather than newer digital command interfaces, making it appropriate for machines that still rely on analog setpoint transmission. It can be integrated into multi-axis cabinets where current regulation, axis enable control, and fault response are handled through the rack assembly. The unit is intended for coordinated motion applications that require centralized control without external cooling ducts.
