Product Description

Motion control machinery has become really popular because it allows the freedom to operate machinery with pre-set performance parameters. Bosch Rexroth has long been considered a seasoned manufacturer of motion control equipment. The company’s products come with a variety of configuration options and provide intuitive solutions for automation challenges.

The VAM40.2-PB-NA-TA-TA-VB-MA-1608-NN machine control panel comes from the VAM control panel series produced by Rexroth. The panel operates on a 24 volts DC voltage supply and a maximum of 1.7 A current. The panel is often used with the operator and visualization terminals and supplements their operation effectively. The panel comes with multiple modules with different functions. There is a module with two override rotary switches. There’s also a module with machine push buttons. Similarly, a module with a handwheel is also provided. A keyswicth is also provided along with an E-STOP button for emergency stop function. The VAM40.2-PB-NA-TA-TA-VB-MA-1608-NN also comes with two keypads each having 15 LED illuminated keys. The keys are of the short-stroke type and can be labeled or programmed as desired.

The VAM40.2-PB-NA-TA-TA-VB-MA-1608-NN has an IP 54 standard frontal protection. It falls in the Type 1 standard of protection according to NEMA (UL). With a 1380 g mass, the panel has a 407 mm width, 169 mm height, and 58 mm depth. The mounting cut-out is 379 mm x 141 mm (WxH). The front panel is constructed from aluminum and chemical resistant polyester foil. This provides surface protection in a rough industrial environment. If a PROFIBUS DP plug is used, then the VAM40.2-PB-NA-TA-TA-VB-MA-1608-NN has a mounting depth of 102 mm. With these features, the panel is an ideal system for effective machine control.
