Product Description:

The VEP50.4AQN-512NN-MAD-1G0-NN-FW embedded terminal belongs to the VEP Embedded Terminals series from Bosch Rexroth Indramat. This panel-based device combines processing, memory, and a resistive touch display so it can serve as a local human-machine interface in automated production cells. By placing computing power at the machine door, it eliminates the need for a separate IPC and shortens response times for recipe changes, diagnostics, and manual overrides on the factory floor. The rugged aluminum housing supports installation on arm systems or front cabinet cutouts, giving direct access to visualization screens without opening electrical enclosures.

At the core of the terminal, a 1 GHz CPU executes visualization tasks and light control routines. The processor is paired with 512 MB of RAM, providing enough buffer space for graphics objects and log files. The electronics operate from a 24 V DC supply commonly available in control cabinets, and power consumption does not exceed 36 W under nominal conditions. Continuous current draw is limited to 1.5 A, so the device can share power distribution with sensors and small actuators without overloading standard 24 V rails. The housing weighs 5.4 kg, which supports VESA arm mounting while still helping reduce the effects of vibration.

During power-up, the capacitors briefly demand 7 A for 6 ms, a value that should be considered when sizing fuses or soft-start modules. The front bezel has touch-sensitive glass with an IP65 rating, while the rear electronics area is rated IP20 for installation inside climate-controlled cabinets. Graphics are displayed on a 15-inch panel with a resolution of 1024 × 768 px, providing adequate pixel density for standard WinStudio or IndraWorks screens. The display area is 381 mm, and the overall front size is 370 × 407 mm, leaving a slim graphite gray border in RAL 7024. Two USB 2.0 ports on the bottom edge simplify the connection of service drives or barcode scanners.
