Functions

Electronic Shaft (Electronic Gear) (CONNECT)

This function synchronizes with the main axis at the specified gear

ratio. It allows for reductions in mechanical functions and labor

requirements for machinery maintenance.

Electronic Cam (CAM, CAMBOX)

An independent electronic cam can be positioned according to

execution times specified in the cam data, and a synchronized

electronic cam can be operated according to a cam table in

synchronization with a specified main axis. A total of 16,000 points for

all Units combined can be included for the cam data, and 32 cam

tables can be set, enabling complex operations.

Virtual Axes

Any axis can be set as an axis performing an ideal movement. Setting

it as the main axis for synchronized control simplifies design and

debugging of programs and adjustment of synchronized operations.

Also, when slippage occurs in motor operation and workpiece

operation, the amount of compensation (for the amount of slippage)

can be set as the target value for the virtual axis, and the

compensation operation can be easily executed by means of the add

axis travel function.

Add Axis Travel (ADDAX, ADDAXR)

This function adds the operation of a superimposed axis to a specified

axis, making it easy to perform compensation in feeder and

synchronization operations.

Follow-up Synchronization (SYNC, SYNCR)

From standby status, this function starts follow-up operation when the

marker sensor turns ON and executes follow-up synchronization with

the main axis. This is ideal for applications that process workpieces

without stopping the line.

Electronic Links (SYNC)

This function enables the specified synchronized operation with

acceleration at the start of synchronization, a ratio during

synchronization, and deceleration at the end of synchronization.

These specifications are specific for the actual application operation,

enabling easy achievement of various types of synchronization

operations.

Other Operations

Various applications are made possible by means of a wide range of

commands, such as MOVE TIME (MOVET), CHANGE TARGET

(MOVEMODI), LATCH (LATCH: With hardware latch and window

functions), TRAVERSE (MOVETRAV), TORQUE (TORQUE,

TORQUER), SPEED (SPEED, SPEEDR).
