aux
Mass of rack and pinion (or vehicle weight)
• Incl. the carriage that is moved by the rack.
• The mass is used in the calculation for the moment of inertia
• The mass of the payload is entered separately when the profile is entered.
• By means of the mass calculator an alternative value can be calculated.

Description
β
Angle of tilt (gradient)
• The value can be entered in degrees or as a percentage.

The additional inertial moment can be, for instance, the pinion or another shaft.
• The proportion of inertia by the payload is calculated separately for a user-definable motion
profile.
• Value can be entered directly or calculated using the inertial calculator.

Description
μ
Gdn
By entering the coefficient of friction μ
Gdn
, an increased requirement of the torque due to the
sliding friction in the guide rail is considered.
• With the coefficient of friction the force F
μ
that counteracts the actual direction of move-
ment is calculated.
• If the static friction is to be taken into account for the start-up, the static coefficient of friction
is to be used in this connection.
• Value can be entered directly or selected from the "Physical coefficients" table.

v
Speed (translatory)
• Value is entered in the Motion dimensioning step.
