In this example 2, an OMRON 1S-series Servomotor with a 23-bit absolute encoder is used.
Mechanically, the reduction ratio of the reducer is 3/5 and the conveyor moves 80 mm for every rota-
tion of the pulley. The travel distance per conveyor rotation is 360 mm.
The Unit of Display parameter is set to millimeters. The Command Pulse Count Per Motor Rotation
is set to the resolution of the encoder on the Servomotor.
The travel distance per conveyor rotation is automatically set by the result of āModulo maximum
position - Modulo minimum positionā.
A reducer with a reduction ratio of 3/5 is used, so the pulley turns three times for every five rotations
of the Servomotor. The conveyor travel distance per pulley rotation is 80 mm and the travel distance
per conveyor rotation is 360. For this reduction ratio setting, the work gear ratio is set to 240 (3 Ć 80)
and the motor gear ratio is set to 1,800 (5 Ć 360).
⢠If the travel distance per pulley rotation is not an integer (e.g. 80.1 mm), use a ratio multiplied
by the coefficient of 10, which converts values to integers, to calculate the work gear ratio and
the motor gear ratio. When the above example is used, the work gear ratio is set to 2,403 (3 Ć
80.1 Ć 10), and the motor gear ratio is set to 18,000 (5 Ć 360 Ć 10).
⢠In the same way as the above example 2, when a multi-step reducer is used, multiply several
ratios together and use a final ratio to set the work gear ratio and the motor gear ratio.
