Fig. 11-29 Synchronization using BERO
The spindle will be synchronized:
S after the NCK has booted, when the spindle is moved using a programming
command
S after a request to resynchronize from the PLC
NST DB31,... DBX16.4 (Resynchronize spindle 1)
NST DB31,...DBX16.5 (Resynchronize spindle 2)
S after each gear stage change when an indirect measuring system is used
MD31040: ENC_IS_DIRECT (direct measuring system) = 0
S when the encoder limit frequency falls below the programmed value after a
speed has been programmed which is above the encoder limit frequency.
Notice
S To synchronize the spindle, it must always be rotated using a programming
command (e.g. M3, M4, SPOS). The specification of a spindle speed using
the direction keys of the machine control panel is not sufficient.
S If the spindle encoder is not mounted directly on the spindle and there are
speed--transforming gears between the encoder and spindle (e.g. encoder
mounted on motor), then a BERO signal connected to the drive module
must be used for synchronization.
The control then automatically resynchronizes the spindle after each gear
change. No manual intervention is required on the part of the user.
S In general, backlash, gearbox elasticity and reference cam hysteresis
reduce the accuracy achievable during synchronization.
