Product Description:

The HDS04.2-W200N-HT04-01-FW drive controller is manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and belongs to the HDS Drive Controllers series. Designed for multi-axis automation, the unit processes motion commands from a higher-level control system and delivers controlled power to connected motors. Within a DIAX04 rack, it acts as the power and communication interface for coordinated servo operation. This arrangement lets the controller support industrial cells and production lines that require synchronized axis control and steady response under changing loads. By centralizing power conversion and communication in one housing, it helps keep axis control consistent across linked machine sections. It is suited for systems where several axes must respond together during indexing, positioning, or speed-regulated motion.

The controller delivers a continuous output of 200 A, enabling operation of large synchronous or asynchronous motors during demanding motion cycles. Command and status data travel over the optical SERCOS interface, which supports deterministic communication for precise position and speed control. That communication structure is used where coordinated axes must exchange cyclic setpoints and actual values without timing drift. Heat generated by the power stage is removed by a built-in air blower, so cabinet air can pass across the heat sink without external ducting. The unit is part of the DIAX04 family and belongs to Line 04, which places it within the same mechanical platform used by related rack modules.

The unit is supplied as Version 2. As part of the HDS Drive Controllers series, it fits modular drive assemblies that group power electronics and control hardware in one rack. Its shared rack connectors support installation beside companion modules, and connected motors and feedback devices can be managed through the same system architecture. The modular rack arrangement keeps power and signal paths grouped in a fixed enclosure footprint. Safety circuits can also be coordinated through the rack structure used by the system.
