3) The control method is the same as that in [1] Positioning. However, the processing of
positioning complete signal PEND is different from that in [1] Positioning.
PEND is output when the shaft is stopped by pressing (pressing complete). If the work is
not subject to pressing (miss-pressing), the actuator moves by the value set in “Positioning
width” to stop but PEND is not turned ON. Completed Position No. PM1 to PM** turn on
both when the pressing operation is complete and when miss-pressing.
Caution: When having a pressing operation using force sensor, it is necessary to calibrate
the loadcell.
[Refer to 3.2.7 Pressing Operation Using Force Sensor Operation Ready
(Calibration of Loadcell)]
Note 1: Set the period taken from entering the position number to turning CSTR ON to 6ms or
longer. Because 6ms timer process on the PLC is also entered to the controller,
positioning at another position may occur. Take the PLC scan time into account.
Note 2: The Completed Position No. output is set to 0 during movement of the actuator.
