6.6 INERTIA COMPENSATION

 

 

The 

Inertia Set-up

 menu is used to configure and calibrate inertia. 

 
The parameters in these screens apply to a full roll of web material. 

Roll weight

 is the weight of a full roll of web material. 

Full roll

 diameter is the diameter of the full roll of web material. 

Roll width

 is the width of the full roll of web material. This is only for calibration. For 

rolls with other widths there is a screen in the parameters menu to enter the present 
web width. 

Core diameter

 is the diameter of the core. 

Core WK^2

 is the inertia of the core. The units for inertia are either lb-ft^2 or kg-

m^2. The selection depends on the units for tension. 
 
Run the system, and when the system is stable, select 

Cal Inertia

 to be 

Yes

 and 

press 

 key to calibrate output versus torque. Any diameter roll of material may be 

used when calibrating the output versus torque.  
 
Diameter and Tension must be calibrated before calibrating inertia. 
 
There are two parameters in the Parameters menu to set the maximum line speed 
and the present roll width. See sections 9.6.9 and 9.6.10. The inertia compensation 
is computed for slowing down the roll from maximum line speed to zero in the stop 
time. 
 
If the web material changes then the roll weight, full roll diameter and roll width 
parameters will need to be changed in the Inertia Set-up menu. If the core diameter 
changes or the core changes material then the Core Inertia and Core Diameter 
parameters must be changed in the Inertia Set-up menu. The calibration for output 
versus torque does not need to be calibrated again.
