XM2100.01-01-31-31-301-NN-100N3NN by Bosch Rexroth Indramat

The XM2100.01-01-31-31-301-NN-100N3NN is a programmable automation controller produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat as part of the XM21 IndraControl Systems series. It operates as the central logic node in industrial cells, coordinating motion axes, safety, and standard I/O over real-time networks to execute PLC and CNC sequences. Designed for cabinet installation, the unit combines processing, networking, and power conditioning in one compact enclosure suited for modern machine layouts. This arrangement allows one controller to supervise machine sequencing and networked devices from a single hardware platform. It is suited to machines that need coordinated logic, communication, and drive control without splitting those functions across multiple modules.

Processing duties are handled by a Intel Atom E620 600 MHz CPU, a low-power x86 core that keeps scan times short while limiting thermal output. The controller integrates 512 MB of RAM so user variables and buffers remain resident during complex tasks. System software and application code are stored in 1 GB of solid-state read-only memory, which helps preserve programs during power loss. A single 24 V DC supply simplifies wiring to the control cabinet bus. For service access, the RJ45 port delivers 1 Gbit Ethernet throughput, which supports fast data transfer between the controller and a connected computer. An on-board Sercos master interface allows deterministic communication with drives and decentralized I/O, so motion devices and remote modules can be managed without an additional fieldbus card.

The housing stands 126.3 mm high, 100 mm wide, and 74.1 mm deep; its protection category is IP20, so placement inside a closed panel is required. Reliable operation is specified up to 4700 m altitude, covering most elevated production sites. One USB device port and one USB host port support service imaging and peripheral attachment, while 128 kB of remanent memory preserves critical setpoints through power cycles. System mass is only 0.62 kg, easing DIN-rail loading. The compact enclosure also helps the controller fit into shallow cabinets where available mounting space is limited.
