Product Description:

The PPC-R22.1N-T-Q1-G2-NN-FW is a programmable control unit manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat in the PPC Controllers series. Installed in a RECO-format rack, it provides task sequencing and motion coordination for industrial automation cells that use Sercos, serial, and cross-communication links. By combining embedded processing with onboard field interfaces, the unit ties machine-level sensors and drives to supervisory PLC or HMI layers, enabling deterministic command execution inside packaging machines, transfer lines, and robotic stations.

This controller operates from a nominal supply of 24 VDC and draws up to 1.2 A, with input ripple limited to 4 Vpp to protect internal logic. A flash array of 32 MB stores user programs and system variables, and this board does not include additional memory expansion. Communication bandwidth reaches 16 MBaud on the Sercos interface and 115200 bps on each of its two asynchronous serial ports. Three digital inputs and two digital outputs share the backplane, and each output can source up to 0.5 A for pilot relays or indicator loads. Cross communication with DAQ03 modules and a double-slot control width allow the device to exchange process data across adjacent stations without external gateways.

The RECO housing carries an IP20 rating, so the unit must be mounted inside a protected cabinet but still supports toolless insertion and removal. A battery-supported real-time clock maintains system time for up to 3 days during power loss, preserving event logs and scheduled tasks. Three front-accessible expansion slots accept additional fieldbus or I/O boards, and a four-digit alphanumeric display provides status codes for startup and fault tracing. With a mass of only 1.3 kg, the module adds minimal load to the rack while providing centralized control for mid-size multi-axis machines.
