8.14 Creating an interconnection via the electrical shaft
The master value/master angle between the drives in the interconnection is transferred by means
of the so-called "electrical shaft", which is based on the principle of the mechanical shaft ("line
shaft"):
Here, a fundamental distinction is made between two ways of using cam technology:
• Fixed synchronisation of the tools with regard to each other
• Synchronisation of the tools with a material

Tip!
It is not absolutely necessary that all axes of a machine belong to the electrical shaft.

Note!
Only controllers with a cam functionality (e.g. 9400 HighLine) can be assigned to an
electrical shaft.
