2.1. Parameter Settings for an Additional Axis

 

For the sealer application, an additional axis needs to be included to control the sealer flow. After initializing the system, input the total number of additional axes to be used when selecting a robot type. Then, go to the additional axis integer setting screen or “[System] à[Initialize] à [Additional axis parameter setting]” to move to the additional axis parameter setting screen as follows.

 

Select the sealer for axis specifications for the additional axis installed in the sealer discharge control. Enter additional axis parameters in the order of the input windows of the setting screen. For more details on how to enter parameters, refer to “Additional Axis Instructions.”

 

Specify the sealer discharge ratio for the sealer axis. Enter the volume of the discharged sealer per m of cylinder for a direct-acting axis. It is important to enter the discharged amount per m instead of the cylinder capacity. For instance, if the cylinder has the capacity of 50 cc and a maximum stroke of 500 mm, enter “1,000 cc/m” for the sealer discharge ratio.
