Customer benefit
The "Travel to fixed stop" function can be used for operations such as traversing tailstocks or
sleeves to an end limit position in order to clamp workpieces.
Features
• The clamping torque and a fixed stop monitoring window can be programmed in the parts
program and can also be altered via setting data once the fixed stop has been reached.
• The "travel to fixed stop" function can be implemented for axes as well as for spindles
with axistraversing capability.
• The function can be implemented for several axes simultaneously and parallel to the
motion of other axes.
• Torques or the power can be adjusted to a specific setting.
• Travel with limited torque/power (Force Control, FOC) can be activated.
• The "travel to fixed stop" functions can be enabled from synchronized actions.
• Block search with calculation, multichannel (SERUPRO).
Move axes with FXS and FOC in simulation mode.
• Vertical axes can also be moved with FXS to a fixed stop.
• With SW 6.4 and higher, VDI signals can be used to set a REPOS offset for each axis and
display the FXS status currently active on the machine after the search target has been
located.
