Caution: (1) The speed during pressing operation is set in Parameter No.34. The
pressing operation speed is 20mm/s.
Do not set any value larger than the value in the list. If the speed setting in
the position table is below this set value, pressing is performed with the set
speed.
(2) The approach start position of pressing should be located at or before the
pressing start position (coordinate 100mm or less in the above example) If
not, the moving direction varies depending on the start position to be
dangerous.
For example, pressing at coordinate larger than the pressing end position
(larger than 150mm) is performed in the direction from the current position
to the pressing end position. Note that pressing after positioning to the
position of coordinate 100mm does not take place.
(3) The work is pressed after the pressing is completed. The work may move
backward or forward. If the actuator is moved backward before the
approach position, alarm code 0DC “Pressing operation range over error”
occurs to stop the actuator. In movement of the work in the pressing
direction, PEND is turned OFF if the load current becomes lower than the
current limit (pressing [%]). Miss-pressing occurs when the actuator moves
by the pressing moving distance set in “Positioning width”.
(4) Do not make control of changing to pressing on the way of normal
positioning (before PEND turning ON). Depending on the position at which
start signal CSTR is turned ON, the pressing is performed improperly. Then
the PLC cannot manage the position of the actuator.
(5) If the actuator gets pressed to the work during the approach operation, 0DC
“Pressing operation range over error” would be issued.
