Product Features
Countless applications are possible
A variety of control types including positioning control, speed-torque control, synchronous control and electronic cam control can be implemented easily with simple parameter settings and a sequence program.
Positioning control
- Support for a multitude of applications thanks to a wide variety of control formats including linear interpolation control (up to 4 axes), 2-axis circular interpolation control, fixed feed control and continuous orbit control.
- Use a sequence program to set the positioning address, speed, etc. for easy automatic operation.
- Quickly implement powerful auxiliary functions such as step operation, target position change, M codes, and the skip function.
Speed-torque control
- Tension control applications such as winding and rewinding are supported.
- Switch from positioning control, to speed-torque control, and back to positioning control.
Because the present location is tracked even in speed- torque control mode, it is possible to maintain the current absolute position when returning to positioning control.
Synchronous control and electronic cam control
- Electronic cam control may be used alone or combined with synchronous control.
Example application for electronic cam control:
To create a movement path around a workpiece using positioning control, axis 2 waits for axis 1 to complete the move from P1 to P2 before it begins moving from P2 to P3. By using electronic cam control, axis 2 does not need to wait for axis 1 to complete its movement and the in position time can be shortened.
Many functions in a compact design
Use a synchronous encoder with synchronous control
- Input pulses from a synchronous encoder can be used to perform synchronous control and electronic cam control.
- The incremental synchronous encoder can be used by using the LD77MS built-in interface. An option unit is not required.
- To further improve the synchronization accuracy, the phase compensation function, designed to compensate for synchronous encoder delays, can be used.
Standard mark detection function
- The built-in mark detection signal interface allows these units to be used in packaging systems for example, without additional option modules.
Automatic cam data generation for rotary cutter
- Complicated cam data for rotary cutters can be automatically generated just by specifying a few parameters like the sheet length and synchronization width.
Perfect synchronous control is easy to achieve
Replace mechanical gears, shafts, speed change gears, cams, etc. and generate synchronous control operations using software.
- Complicated programs are unnecessary for synchronous control because it can be implemented easily using parameter settings.
- Start and stop synchronous control for each axis.
Use the synchronous control axis and positioning control axis together. - Convey the travel value of main shaft to the output axis via the clutch.
Cam control made simple
Create cam data patterns easily.
- Create cam profiles unrestricted by existing concepts of electronic cam control.
- Change the acceleration, speed, stroke, and jerk while simultaneously seeing how it effects the profile.
- Easily check created cam data by viewing them as thumbnails.
- Import and export cam data in CSV format.
Simplified debugging and commissioning
Digital oscilloscope function
- Collection of data from the simple motion module is synchronized with the operation cycle and waveform displays to facilitate an efficient start up.
- The assistant function explains each step.
- Use the purpose-based probe setting to easily set frequentlyviewed data.
- Sample 16CH word and 16CH bit data and display 8CH words and 8CH bits in real time.
Monitor and test functions
- Complete the system installation and perform operational checks easily using powerful monitor and test functions.
- Select items to be displayed on the monitor using a wealth of information monitoring options.
- The test function can be used to check basic operations without a sequence program.
