8.5 Electronic Cam Function8-158.5 Electronic Cam Function8.5.1 Outline of Electronic Cam Function Electronic cam functionThe electronic cam function uses a preset cam pattern, determines the movement amount ofthe slave axes according to the operation of the master axis (phase information) and campattern, and outputs the movement amount. The cam pattern uses one rotation of the masteraxis as an operation reference, based on which the displacement of the slave axes in eachphase (rotation angle) is defined on the Configurator screen.Electronic clutchoutputSlave axis outputInput axisphaseOutput axisdisplacementInput valueCurrent value [L]Time [T]Time [T]Time [T]Cam pattern Cam patternThe cam pattern uses one rotation of the master axis as an operation reference, based onwhich the displacement of the slave axes in each phase (rotation angle) is defined. The campattern is defined with the phase (rotation angle) of the master axis based on one rotation asa reference on the X-axis and the displacement on the Y-axis in percent. The cam pattern isset with the desired settings for the positioning unit selected from the FPWIN GR7Configuration screen.Phone: 800.894.0412 - Fax: 888.723.4773 - Web: www.clrwtr.com - Email: info@clrwtr.com
