Setpoint origin
Starting from the setpoint origin O, the values of the setpoint origins OX of the submovers in the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis must be calculated.
 | Examples of the positioning of the setpoint origin The positioning of the setpoint origin is shown using two 2 x 2 mover couplings as an example. |
Position | Explanation |
|---|---|
1 | Submover 1 |
2 | Submover 2 |
3 | Submover 3 |
4 | Submover 4 |
5 | Framework of the mover coupling |
| Setpoint origin O of the mover coupling |
| Setpoint origin Ox of the submover, O1 for submover 1, … |
Example A
The setpoint origin O is located in the center of the surface of the mover coupling. The setpoint origins OX of the submovers have the same distance to the setpoint origin O.
Example B
The setpoint origin O is not in the center of the mover coupling. The setpoint origins OX of the movers have different distances to the setpoint origin O.
Starting from the setpoint origin O, the values of the setpoint origins OX of the submovers in the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis must be calculated and entered under the parameters (Init) of XPlanarRigidMoverCoupling. The following tables show values for examples A and B on the previous page with APS4550-0000 movers.
