Application of glue tracks
In the following example, glue tracks are applied to a workpiece. Each track controls one
glue gun via a digital output.

Figure 1-5 Example: Electronic output cam control
The glue guns are activated via outputs of an output cam based on the axis position.
The axis position is measured by an encoder that connects an SMC encoder interface to
SIMOTION D via DRIVE-CLiQ.
The SIMOTION Output Cam or Output Cam Track technology object controls the digital
outputs of the TM15 based on the axis position.
The output delay times (output delay times of DO / actuators, etc.) are compensated in the
technology object. This compensation ensures that the glue placement is always accurate
regardless of machine speed.
