6.4.3 Limiting the traversing prole
Description
The traversing prole is the acceleration, velocity and position characteristics of an axis when
being positioned.
You can inuence the traversing prole by limiting velocity, acceleration or jerk (= change of the
acceleration over time).

Figure 6-4 Example: Eect of jerk limiting
If the axis must traverse more slowly or must accelerate at a lower rate or "softly", then you must
set the relevant limits to lower values. The lower that one of the limits is, the longer the converter
needs to position the axis.
Setting the traversing prole limitation
Requirement
You have selected the "Limit" screen and the "Traversing prole limitation" tab.
