P-CHAN-00366

Factor for reducing the velocity when limiting movement to the end position

Description

This parameter defines a safety factor for reducing the path velocity. It takes effect as soon as the limiting function towards the end position is active in the opposite conveying direction.

The factor is usually set to 0.95, which corresponds to a reduction in velocity to 95%. The machine TCP is then taken to a safe distance from the end position. Factors that are too small are not optimal since they can increase machining time.

If the value defined is too large, the warning ID 21483 is output and the value is limited to the maximum value
