Product Description:

The VPB40.4D2R-16GNN-D8D-HN-NN-FW is an IndraControl PC unit produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat in the VPB IndraControl PC Units series. As an embedded industrial computer, it hosts the operator interface and coordinates motion, logic, and visualization tasks through its CDI+ control panel interface. Designed for cabinet installation, the unit serves as the computing core of decentralized automation cells where deterministic processing and real-time field communication are required.

The electronics are supplied from a DC 24 V source, which simplifies integration in low-voltage control cabinets and reduces power conversion stages. Two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces with 2 x RJ45 sockets enable separate machine and plant networks or redundant topologies. The chassis provides 4 x PCIe expansion slots for local I/O or specialty controller cards, and each slot accepts add-in boards up to 175 mm in length without obstructing airflow. System memory includes 16 GB of DDR4 RAM so that complex HMI screens and database buffers can remain in volatile storage. Mass data such as recipes or trending logs are stored on a 192 GB solid-state drive, giving fast read and write access while offering better vibration resistance than rotating media.

An Intel Core i7-6820EQ processor clocks at 2.80 GHz, providing four physical cores for multitasking PLC runtimes, CNC functions, and hypervisor layers without oversubscription. The steel housing carries an IP20 rating, so it must be mounted inside a sealed cabinet while still allowing convenient access. Operation is permitted up to 3000 m above sea level, at ambient temperatures up to +45 °C, and at relative humidity up to 85%, supporting use in elevated or humid production halls. Mechanical resilience is verified for shocks up to 15 g, and the design falls under overvoltage category 2 for coordination with safe extra-low-voltage control circuits.
