Task

Interface for accessing the values and functions of the feed forward motion of the FB_Infeed POU

Description

The feed forward motion is implemented as CAM curve of type Straight. The velocity factor with which the belt follows the master can be changed.

NOTE: Performance is limited by program cycle time (transferring commands to the axes).

NOTE: Using this interface to stop the motion and simultaneously commanding a correction motion leads to an inoperable system (no motion at all).

To avoid such scenario, perform these actions only one at a time.

Description

lrAcc

LREAL

Read/Write

The maximum acceleration of the belt at a change of the velocity factor

lrDec

LREAL

Read/Write

The maximum deceleration of the belt at a change of the verlocity factor

lrMinXFactor

LREAL

Read/Write

The change of the velocity factor usually is calculated such that the change is completed in the shortest possible time. However, to prevent motions with extremely high jerk values, a minimum value can be set for the path that the cam master travels during the change of the velocity factor (x-factor of the transfer curve) using this parameter.

Element TRUE: The belt is ready to change the velocity factor.
