Product Description:

The VSB40.3D1G-1G0NN-C2D-FE-NN-FW is an industrial PC unit manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the VSB Industrial PC Units series. Built as a centralized controller, it coordinates motion sequences, visualizes process data, and links field devices to higher-level networks inside automated cells. Its compact steel chassis allows cabinet mounting close to drives and I/O, so application software can run with minimal signal latency while the attached CDI panel gives operators direct access to recipes and diagnostics. This arrangement also helps shorten cable runs between the controller, the operator interface, and nearby automation hardware.

Power is provided through a 24 V DC supply, letting the PC share the same low-voltage rail as sensors and actuators. The motherboard carries 1024 MB of DDR2 RAM for real-time task buffers, and two 2 × 1 Gbit/s Ethernet ports support separate control and plant networks. Expansion is available through a 5 × PCI + 1 PCIe backplane that accepts fieldbus, vision, or motion cards for machine-specific functions. For on-machine durability, the housing withstands shocks up to 15 g, and the IP20 enclosure suits protected cabinets where convection cooling is adequate. Mechanical dimensions of 146 mm width, 364 mm height, and 239 mm depth permit vertical mounting beside drive stacks. An RS-232 serial connector handles legacy devices, while the standard interface set and the CDI control-panel link simplify HMI and peripheral wiring.

High-speed processing is driven by a Celeron 440 with a minimum clock speed of 2 GHz CPU that boots from a 2.5-inch 32 GB SSD, which reduces startup time and avoids rotating media wear. A DVD±RW optical drive provides removable media support for software transfer and data backup. Eight USB 2.0 ports allow connection of keyboards, cameras, and wireless adapters, and the unit can tolerate vibration up to 1 g during operation. Design version 3 belongs to line 40, and the platform is suited to cabinet-based control tasks that require compact computing hardware and multiple interface options.
