2 Uses
2.1 Applications
2.1.1 Controls that are permitted
The standard “flying saw” application has only been tested for use in the
following control system:
• SIMOTION
D 435
However, it can also be used – without any significant additional costs –
also in the SIMOTION P or SIMOTION C controls.
2.1.2 Tasks that can be implemented using the core functions
These core functions are used to control flying equipment and mechanisms
to
• Cut
• Perforate
• Emboss
• Seal
• Saw
• Drill
• Paint
• etc.
The core “flying saw” function completely handles the motion control of the
flying axis used for cutting/sawing. The functionality associated with the
material feed is implemented outside the core functions in the user
program.
Definition In the following text, the “flying saw” term is used to represent all of the
other conceivable machine versions.
The term “saw” is used for all parts of the machine where direct contact
is made to the material when “cutting”.
