Introduction

Backlash compensation serves the purpose of compensating the deviation between the actual and calculated real position of an axis that is caused by mechanical backlash.

Effectiveness

• Backlash compensation can be activated for all axis types.

Parameterization

In relation to backlash compensation,

• the nature of mechanical backlash (P-AXIS-00021)
• the amount of mechanical backlash (P-AXIS-00103)
• the distribution of mechanical backlash (P-AXIS-00243)

can be parameterised in the axis parameter record [AXIS].
