IEC 61131 programming, motion logic integration, diagnostics and status display, CompactFlash project storage, fieldbus communication, digital I/O processing, connection to IndraMotion drive systems.
Application Scenarios
Packaging machines, special-purpose machine tools, handling systems, assembly stations, printing equipment and mid-size automation cells requiring PLC plus servo coordination.
Performance Parameters
Real-time control cycle suitable for logic and axis supervision, deterministic I/O update over Ethernet/PROFIBUS/SERCOS, stable operation with Rexroth IndraDrive and IndraMotion components.
Material Composition
Industrial metal/electronic enclosure, PCB with processor and memory devices, CompactFlash socket, D-sub and RJ45 connectors, DIN/panel mounting hardware.
Structural Features
Inline controller housing, integrated I/O terminals, fieldbus ports, CF card slot, status LEDs, optional LCD/RS-232 depending on exact CML40.2 variant.
Working Principle
The CPU executes the control program from CompactFlash or internal memory, scans digital I/O, exchanges data with HMI and drives over Ethernet/PROFIBUS/SERCOS, performs logic and motion supervision, and stores process data in DRAM/NVRAM.
Installation Requirements
Install in a control cabinet with 24 V DC filtered supply, ground the enclosure and shield cables, provide backplane/DIN mounting according to the exact L40 variant, maintain clearance for ventilation, use approved Rexroth accessories only.
