Product Description:

The MTC-R02.1-M1-A2-NN-NN-FW is a CNC control module manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the MTC200 CNC Modules series. It serves as the SERCOS master in an automation cell, issuing deterministic motion commands to multiple digital drives while monitoring status feedback in real time. By consolidating axis interpolation, bus management, and safety signaling into one slot-mount unit, the module streamlines cabinet design for complex machine tools. It is intended for applications that require coordinated feed motion, interpolation, and closed-loop drive communication across several servo axes.

The controller can coordinate up to 16 axes and handles eight drives on each loop, allowing scalable architectures without additional masters. Physical dimensions of 83.7 × 192 × 152 mm keep the hardware compact when panel depth is limited, and the narrow form helps it fit beside other rack components. During peak processing, the electronics draw a maximum of 930 mA from the 24 V DC cabinet supply, and the internal regulators dissipate up to 26 W of heat that must be removed by forced-air circulation. Fiber-optic links tolerate network attenuation up to 12.5 dB, so cabinet interconnects can include several inline connectors or modest cable lengths without risking data integrity.

The housing carries a protection rating of IP 20, which indicates finger-safe construction but no sealing against liquids, so installation is restricted to enclosed panels. Logic circuits operate directly from a regulated supply of 24 VDC, and momentary ripple is limited to 4 Vpp to maintain processor reliability during bus activity. Total installed mass is 1.65 kg, which reduces mechanical load on mounting hardware and supports compact control layouts. Communication conforms to IEC 1491, ensuring interoperability with drives and I/O devices that use the same SERCOS protocol revision, and the optical transmitters deliver at least -7.5 dBm while the receivers remain functional down to -20 dBm.
