Automatic orientation of a tracking axis(P-CHAN-00101)
By the parameter "auto_align_tracking_axis" the tracking axis is orientated automatically tangential to the first contour element. For modulo axis the orientation movement is done on the shortest way. The movement on the trajectory is always stopped during the orientation movement.
Variable name | Type | Permitted range | Dimension | |
auto_align_tracking_axis | BOOLEAN | 0/1 | ---- | |
0 | During tracking operation the offset of the orientation of the tracking axis to the first contour element at the moment of activation stays constant! To reach a tangential orientation of the tracking axis to the first contour element, this compensation movement must be programmed | |||
1 | During activation the tracking axis is orientated automatically tangential to the first contour element. No compensation movement must be programmed. | |||
