Linked CAM control
fig. 11
Next to the standard CAM profiling tool the TJ1-MC__ also
provides a tool to link the CAM profile to another axis. The
command to create the link is called
CAMBOX
. The travelling
speed through the profile is not determined by the axis parameters
of the axis but by the position of the linked axis. This is like
connecting two axes through a cam.
In the figure, A is the Master axis (0) position, and B is the
CAMBOX
Axis (1) position.
Linked move
fig. 12
The
MOVELINK
command provides a way to link a specified move
to a master axis. The move is divided into an acceleration,
deceleration and constant speed part and they are specified in
master link distances. This can be particularly useful for
synchronizing two axes for a fixed period.
The labels in the figure are:
A. Time axis.
B. Speed axis.
C. Master axis (1).
D. Synchronized.
E.
MOVELINK
axis (0).
