software. In this way an endless fine drive motion in one direction is realized.
Fig. 3-30 Fine drive
Solenoid clamp
A thin clamp disc is fixed on the motor axis. A latching solenoid is fixed at the lever arm. In clamped
mode (2) the solenoid pulls the clamp disc against the break material, the motor axis and motor is
clamped and a traction between lever arm and motor housing transmits the fine motion to the
cogwheel.
Switching the solenoid to open position 1 the coarse drive works again, driving the axis.
