Product Description:

The VT-HNC100-2-2X-W-16-C-0 is a digital axis controller built by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and assigned to the VT-HNC Digital Axis Controllers series. Designed for hydraulic motion systems, the unit coordinates position and velocity loops for up to two servo-valve-driven axes inside a machine tool or press line. By combining sensor interfaces, power conditioning, and fieldbus communication inside a wall-mounted housing, it provides the supervisory logic that a PLC delegates to regulate closed-loop hydraulics. That arrangement keeps fast loop processing in the controller while the higher-level automation system remains focused on sequence control.

Its hardware supports 2 hydraulic axes, so the internal CPU manages dual-channel control algorithms and related interlocks. Field integration occurs over CANopen, allowing real-time data exchange with motion controllers or PLCs. For local interlocking, there are 16 input/output lines that can be configured as sinks or sources, giving direct access to limit switches, proportional valves, or status lamps. Analog command values are referenced against ±10 V, which is the span expected by many industrial pressure or displacement transducers. The quadrature and SSI encoder ports tolerate frequencies up to 250 kHz, so fast linear scales can be sampled without missing counts during rapid traverse.

Parameter uploads and diagnostics use RS232 at 9.6 kBaud, and this universal port simplifies setup when a bus master is not present. During operation, the controller draws only 8 W, which helps limit cabinet heat and supports unforced convection cooling. The unit weighs 1.2 kg, which makes handling straightforward during installation. Its 204 mm depth, together with the 155 mm height and 106.5 mm width, allows placement in shallow enclosures where space is shared with relays, power supplies, and hydraulic interface hardware.
