The user program only has to control the material feed and to supply the
core function with the correct parameters.
Additional function of the standard application
Further, using this standard application, after the material has been cut with
the cutting device, a gap can be created between the individual cut pieces.
This function can also be set at the core function and commissioned by
simply entering the appropriate parameters.
1.2.3 Advantages of the standard "flying saw" application
When the standard “flying saw” application is used, it offers users the
following advantages:
Programs can be quickly generated
When the standard “flying saw” application is used, it is simple to quickly
implement a "flying saw" functionality when programming with SIMOTION.
The core functions provided in the standard application can be transferred
into the application to be generated quickly and simply by copying. The
description of this standard application explains the additional configuring
steps that are necessary.
Automatic motion control
The core functions of the standard “flying saw” application can be used to
realize all of the flying saw axis motion control using SIMOTION technology
functions. The user only programs a execution sequence that corresponds
to the actual behavior of the machine function to be implemented.
Possibility of adaptation
The standard “flying saw” application includes all of the source codes in a
commented form. This means that the existing core functions can be
quickly and simply expanded by the user's own particular functions.
This description also provides you with an explanation of the background
required to expand the core functions.
1.3 Components included in the standard application
The standard “flying saw” application is implemented as SIMOTION project.
It is a program that can be executed for a (demonstration) machine for the
SIMOTION D and PC demonstration case with WinCCflex for visualization.
