Cam Toolbox: Function Blocks
MotionWorks IEC61131-3 Toolboxes: 2013-09-13 84
CamControl
The CamControl block makes decisions regarding engage and disengage timing for applications where products
are buffered and processed at random intervals. This function block requires the
ProductBuffer function block
from the PLCopen Toolbox and the CamShift_Control block from the Cam Toolbox. The main inputs that feed
the CamControl block are RegistrationData and ControlData. This function block was designed for applications
like Linear Flying Shear, Random Rotary Placer, Knife, Drill, etc.
