Siemens SINAMICS G120 - Limiting the Traversing Profile

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

Figure 6-4 Example: E󹪜ect 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 pro󹪝le limitation
Requirement
You have selected the "Limit" screen and the "Traversing pro󹪝le limitation" tab.
