HDS04.1-W200N-HA16-01-FW
The HDS04.1-W200N-HA16-01-FW is a drive controller built by Bosch Rexroth Indramat as part of the HDS Drive Controllers series. It is installed in multi-axis Indramat racks to manage power distribution and regulate motor dynamics in industrial automation. By converting DC bus energy into controlled outputs, the unit coordinates acceleration, speed, and braking for the attached servo drives, allowing machine tools, printing lines, and assembly cells to execute repeatable motion profiles under closed-loop feedback. This arrangement supports predictable axis response during frequent starts, stops, and speed changes in automated production equipment.
Command signals reach the controller through an analog pathway, so voltage or current references from the motion PLC are interpreted directly without fieldbus serialization. This link serves as the command interface and allows sub-millisecond torque updates. The DIAX04 designation indicates that the unit mates mechanically and electrically with compatible supply and axis modules. Thermal management is handled by a built-in air blower, which draws cabinet air across the heat sink so additional ductwork is not required. The power section is rated for a continuous output of 200 A, providing headroom for large synchronous or induction motors during acceleration. Because the reference input is direct, the controller can follow external analog setpoints without an added conversion step. Its rack-mounted format supports compact installation in machine control cabinets.
Within the product hierarchy it belongs to Line 04, indicating the enclosure size and connector orientation used for that rack width. The unit is Version 1, which identifies the revision used for this controller. These identifiers distinguish it from other HDS modules with different housing sizes or internal revisions. This layout is suited to systems where several drive modules are arranged side by side in a shared cabinet. The enclosure format matches the rack geometry used by adjacent modules, which helps preserve front access and cable clearance.
