Product Description:
The KDA 3.1-100-3-AQS-U1 is a spindle drive manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and supplied within the KDA Spindle Drives series. As a spindle drive, it converts regulated DC link energy from an external supply unit into controlled three-phase power for high-speed machine-tool spindles used in automated machining centers. The unit supports closed-loop speed regulation so the commanded spindle velocity can be reproduced accurately during cutting, drilling, or grinding operations. This control behavior helps the spindle maintain stable rotation when cutting load changes, which supports consistent machining performance during speed-controlled processes.
The drive is rated for a continuous output of 100 A, which is the maximum motor phase current it can deliver without derating. That current capacity is suitable for spindle motors that require sustained torque during continuous machining duty. Internally, it operates from a DC link of 300 VDC; this voltage sets the upper limit for the generated spindle output voltage and affects the available torque at a given speed. Thermal energy generated by the power electronics is removed through a mounted heatsink blower that operates in forced cooling mode, and active airflow keeps device temperatures within safe limits during sustained heavy cuts. That blower uses an auxiliary supply of 115 V/50-60 Hz, separating cooling requirements from the main DC circuit and allowing the heatsink fan to run whenever mains power is present, even when the DC bus is discharged.
The permissible ambient range is 5 to 45 degrees Celsius, supporting stable operation on the factory floor. Installation is permitted up to 1000 m above sea level before additional derating is needed. For integration with supervisory controls, a serial interface (RS-232C) is available for parameter access and diagnostic readouts. Speed commands are accepted as an analog reference, allowing simple voltage or current loop outputs from CNC controllers to set spindle velocity without digital fieldbus hardware.
