Product Description:

The HDS04.2-W200N-HS80-01-FW is a drive controller manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and belongs to the HDS Drive Controllers series. It functions as the power and regulation section for an axis in industrial automation, translating setpoint data from a motion computer into controlled three-phase output for servo motors. By integrating current, velocity, and position loops, the unit supports precise tool feeds, pick-and-place paths, and coordinated multi-axis moves in machining, handling, and packaging systems. Its closed-loop control structure helps the axis respond accurately to changing motion commands during continuous operation. This arrangement allows the drive to maintain stable motion during acceleration, deceleration, and changing load conditions on automated axes.

A fiber-optic SERCOS channel serves as the controller’s primary communication interface, allowing deterministic, high-speed exchange of setpoints, actual values, and status data with CNCs or PLCs. The fiber-optic link also supports synchronized command updates for coordinated axes that must move together. The power stage is rated for 200 A continuous output, enabling the module to drive large torque-demanding axes without derating. Thermal energy created at this current level is removed by a built-in air blower, which moves cabinet air across the heat sink and eliminates the need for external ducting. The unit is assigned to the DIAX04 controller family, so it uses the same general module format and system grouping as other drives in that platform.

Within the product hierarchy, the device is identified as Line 04, which indicates its mechanical size and connector arrangement. It is also marked as Version 2. The unit is an HDS Drive Controller, meaning that the power electronics and digital regulation are combined in one housing. This format distinguishes the module from passive supply components used elsewhere in the same drive system. Line and version identifiers separate this unit from HDS controllers with other current classes or mechanical formats. They are used to match the module to the intended drive rack and control setup.
