Product Description:

The PPC-R02.2N-N-Q1-T2-V2-FW is a programmable control unit manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and positioned within the PPC Controllers series. In an automation cell, it serves as the primary platform for axis coordination, logic sequencing, and network exchange between drives, sensors, and supervisory computers. By embedding motion and PLC functionality inside a compact rack-mountable module, the device reduces cabinet space and streamlines wiring in multiprocess production lines.

Network integration is handled through an Ethernet 10 Mb Interface (ETH01) that provides 10-megabit connectivity for plant-level data exchange and service access. For deterministic I/O mapping on distributed devices, the unit includes a DeviceNet fieldbus slave interface (DNS03), which allows the controller to appear as an addressable node on a DeviceNet trunk while still executing local programs. Cross-platform data sharing between multiple PPC stations is implemented with the Cross Communication interface DAQ03, enabling high-speed peer traffic without external gateways. Physical protection for these interfaces is provided by the RECO unit housing, a modular enclosure style that plugs onto a common backplane. The unit is Design version 2, indicating the second build used in this controller line.

The module is shipped with an expansion socket that is not equipped, so additional RAM or flash capacity must be provided through external options when larger user programs or data logs are required. As part of the PPC Controllers series, the controller combines Ethernet, DeviceNet, and cross-communication channels in one housing, which supports mixed network topologies without intermediate converters. In practical operation, one control unit manages motion commands, collects status data, and forwards diagnostic frames across the plant network.
