For the commissioning of new machines, HEIDENHAIN recommends
adjusting the PWM frequency to fit axis modules (normally 4 kHz, see
SIEMENS documentation). If the power module of the spindle gets too warm
in spite of a reduction of the PWM frequency from 5 kHz to 4 kHz, then the
reference value for the I
2
t monitoring (MP2303) or the rated current I
N
must
be reduced.
Reduction of the reference value for the I
2
t monitoring or the rated
current I
N
The reduction of the rated current I
N
of the power modules, as well as the
datum value for I
2
t monitoring can be calculated from two values (X1, X2) that
are given in the SIEMENS documentation.
The percent reduction of the rated current can be calculated with the following
formula:
n X1 = Reduction factor of the current in % at a PWM frequency of 8 kHz
n X2 = PWM threshold frequency in kHz at which the electrical power
reduction begins
n f
PWM
= PWM frequency in kHz set in MP2180.0-8
This results in the reference value for I
2
t monitoring:
Example for a 50-A power module:
n Axis power module with 50 A, PWM frequency of 5 kHz, X1 = 40 %, X2 =
4 kHz
n Spindle power module with 50 A, PWM frequency of 5 kHz, X1 = 40 %, X2
= 3.2 kHz
Note
A reduction of the PWM frequency has no effect on the maximum speed,
but it means that the axis and the spindle without integral DSP must be
commissioned again.
