Operation
Create a new project
Dialog object Description
Input field Name • The slave axis must have a definite name (e.g. Slave1)
and must not be used for other slaves at the same time.
• The name of the slave axis is used by the CamDesigner. CamDesigner creates a
Slave1.LC9 or Slave1.LC7.
In this *.LC9-file or *.LC7-file all profile data, cams and position marker are stored.
Input field Minimum * Set range of motion
Input field Maximum *
Combination field Unit *
Selection of the unit
Control field
Absolute data model
Relative data model
When using the absolute data model, you have internal or external (PC) access to
each single base point. However, a fewer number of base points is available then.
• If the control field Absolute data model is not marked, the relative data model is
used. When using the relative data model, more base points are available. The
base points are distributed automatically.
• If the relative data model is used, the entire profile can only be accessed with the
Cam Designer Basic/Professional or Cam Loader to change profile data. The pro-
file data cannot be changed via access from a PLC.
Input field Curves * Maximum number of the curve profile to be stored.
Reserves should be considered in the maximum number of curve profiles.
Input field Points * Number of base points
Maximally 1 base point/ms or less
Group field
Background layout
Curves are distinguished by colour.
Improved representation of the curves in multi-axis applications.
Input field Gearbox factors
z2/z1 *
Ratio between motor and tool
Example: multi-stage gearbox
Gearbox numerator = z2
×
z4 = 28
×
32 = 896 (value of z2)
Gearbox denominator = z1
×
z3 = 23
×
15 = 359 (value of z1)
Input field Feed constant * Path per revolution at the output end of the gearbox.
(If an angle is stated, one revolution = 360°)
The physical unit entered is converted to the encoders.
• Enter, for instance, the leadscrew pitch.
• When entering increments, enter the number of increments per revolution.
Group field
Data of drive controller
The selection field Type serves to select a target system.
• Servo PLC/ECS servo system
• 9300 EK (9300 servo cam)
The input field GDC file serves to import a GDC file.
• Only if 9300 EK (9300 servo cam) has been selected.
Assignment of a drive via the bus address.
Shows the path of the selected drive.
The button ... serves to select a drive.
• The assignment is only necessary if profiles, cams etc. are to be changed.
• To change profiles, cams etc. online, all drives must be online.
