AXIS 3
Example A machine that applies lids to cartons uses a simulated line shaft. This exam-
ple sets up a virtual axis running forward to simulate the line shaft. Axis 0 is
then connected, with the CONNECT command, to this virtual axis to run the
conveyor. Axis 1 controls a vacuum roller that feeds the lids on to the cartons
using the MOVELINK control.
