10 – Motion Compensation
The calculation for the average backlash is:
((0.40-0.60) + (0.40-0.60)) / 2 =
-0.20 + -0.20 / 2 =
-0.40 / 2 =
0.20 mm (0.008 inches)
If the backlash compensation calculated with values from the data file is different from the value that is entered on the Axis
screen, Phoenix prompts the user to use the calculated backlash compensation value.
