Product Description:
The RAC 2.3-250-460-LP0-W1 is an AC main spindle drive controller manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the RAC Spindle Drive Controllers series. As a closed-loop power module, it supplies regulated three-phase energy to high-speed machine-tool spindles and relays velocity commands from a CNC or motion platform. This supports precise speed regulation during cutting, grinding, and drilling operations in automated production cells, where stable spindle response is needed to maintain surface quality and process consistency.
This controller accepts a mains supply of 3 x AC 400 V, 50 Hz, +/-15% or 3 x AC 460 V, so it can be installed in plants that use either European or North American voltage standards. At full load, the power section delivers 250 A of continuous output current, providing enough capacity for rapid acceleration of large spindle motors and sustained operation under demanding duty cycles. Thermal management is handled by an internal blower and built-in fan, which helps keep the heat sink temperature within a safe operating range without external ducting. Speed commands are received over a SERCOS interface, allowing deterministic fiber-optic communication between the drive, the CNC, and related drive axes during synchronized machining tasks.
The control section includes an additional encoder input for spindle feedback, enabling dual-loop operation when tighter response to changing load conditions is required. Control and diagnostic signals are routed through the X4 optical-waveguide terminal, which helps reduce electromagnetic interference inside crowded cabinets. Position and speed are resolved by a high-resolution INDRAMAT encoder, allowing fine interpolation of angular position for machining processes that require minimal surface error. For braking energy, the unit is supplied without an additional bleeder, so external regenerative hardware is required when short deceleration times are needed. The drive is Version 3, and this version identifies the product revision used for this controller.
