2.2. Servo tool constant setting

 

Manages the axial specification, the number for it, and the number of the additional axis number for the change, for individual servo motors.

(1)    Axial specification

Selects the specification of the change axis. Currently, support is provided for servo guns, positioners and jigs.

 

(2)    Axial configuration

Selects whether the configuration of the axis for the change is “Linear” or “Circular”

 

(3)    Servo gun/Positioner/Jig Numbers

Sets the numbers for the axis specification. There should be a 1:1 correspondence between the servo tool integers and the servo gun/positioner/jig numbers. Accordingly, the same numbers for the servo guns/positioner/jig numbers can not be set for mutually different servo tool integers.

 

(4)    Additional axis number

Sets the additional axis number for the connection/disconnection process. If the axial configuration is for the servo gun, the additional axis number set at the ‘Tool No. corresponding to Gun No., and gun-type set’ will be set automatically. Users need to carry out the setting in case of positioner/jig axes.

 

When it comes to the servo gun/jig numbers in the following settings, it is required to set the individual additional axis numbers for the change. In other words, G1 is the tool to be changed for the additional axis #1 and J1 is the tool to be changed for the additional axis #3.
