11.13 SPINDLE SYNCHRONOUS CONTROL
Overview
This function can exercise synchronous control on spindles. This
function can also control the rotation phase of spindles, so that not
only a round rod but also a non-standard workpiece can be grasped by
either of two spindles.
This function enables the synchronous control. It also enables the
control of the rotation phase of a spindle, allowing non-standard
workpieces as well as rods to be held by either of the two spindles.
A combination of a master spindle and slave spindle in spindle
synchronous control can be selected arbitrarily from spindles.
This function can be used with serial spindles.
Explanation
- Synchronous-spindle configuration (when the one path system is used)
In spindle synchronous control, the spindle to which an S command is
issued is called the master spindle. A spindle which ignores any S
command that is issued for it, instead rotating synchronously with the
master spindle, is called the slave spindle.
When the parameter SSS (No. 3704#4) is se to 0
The configuration of synchronized spindles is as follows:
Master spindle Slave spindle.
