Parameter

Data type

Description

CutOverspeed

INT

Reduces or increases the cross cutter speed within "CutRange" [%]

Note:

Only values greater than "-50" are permitted!

Note:

-50% … Slave runs at half speed in relation to the master axis

0% … No synchronization, slave runs at the same speed as the master axis

100% ... Slave runs at twice the speed of the master axis

CutterRadius

REAL

Specifies the radius of the cross cutter used to calculate "CutRangeMaster" in relation to the circumference of the slave

[PLCopen units of master]

Note:

This value is needed if "CutRangeMaster" is not specified.

NumberOfKnives

USINT

Number of blades along the slave circumference whose interval corresponds to the PLCopen period

Note:

This value is needed if "CutRangeMaster" is not specified.

StartMode

UINT

Mode for the initial movement after the function block is enabled

The following values are possible:

mcIMMEDIATE ... 0

mcMASTER_POSITION ... 256

mcRESTART ... 273

In addition, the following additive mode is available in V2.370 and higher:

+mcCORRECT_CURRENT_CYCLE ... 32768

CutPosition

REAL

Absolute cut position within the PLCopen period

[PLCopen units of slave]

Note:

Default value: 0.0

This input value can be used to shift the cut position within a slave period.

FirstCutPosition

REAL

Position within the master axis period or absolute position for a non-periodic master axis where the first cut should take place

[PLCopen units of master]

Note:

For an immediate start, see "AdvancedParameters.StartMode".

StartInterval

REAL

Interval for generating a starting event (a multiple of "StartInterval" is added to "FirstCutPosition" so that the movement can be started in synchronization)

[PLCopen units of master]

Note:

If "0.0" is specified, then "ProductLength" is used.

For an immediate start, see "AdvancedParameters.StartMode".

MasterStartDistance

REAL

Distance of the master axis in which the cross cutter should be synchronized to the first cut position

[PLCopen units of master]

Note:

If "0.0" is specified, then half of the "ProductLength" is used.

This value is used after "EnableCut" = TRUE (see Cam Profile Automat State1)

CamTableID

USINT

ID number of the cam (e.g. output from MC_CamTableSelect)

A specific cam can be used to carry out special cutting movements, e.g. push-out motions.

Note:

The cam should be normalized to master and slave length = 1 in order to take advantage of the "CutOverspeed" parameter.

If mcLINEAR_CAM or 0 is specified, then a predefined 1:1 cam is used.

If a cam is used, e.g. for a push-out motion, specifying a value for "CutOverSpeed" that results in a slope within the cam ≥"1" is recommended. This prevents buckling of the product.

MasterParID

UINT

This ParID is used instead of the position setpoint; 0…Use position setpoint

Note:

When using a value other than 0 (even if the position ParID), the PLCopen factor of the master axis is not applied to any of the parameters involving the master axis.

MasterMaxVelocity

REAL

If a value is simultaneously specified for "MasterParID":

Maximum velocity of MasterParID value

If a value is not specified for "MasterParID":

Maximum velocity of the master axis [PLCopen units of master/s]

If this parameter is "0.0", then the current velocity of the master axis at the time of the rising edge of the "Enable" or "InitData" input is used.

Note:

This value is used to calculate the compensating movement for coupling, changing the gear ratio or cams as well as between the cutting areas (depending on the function). This parameter has a considerable effect on the occurrence of ACOPOS error 37113: "Cam compensation gear: Limit values exceeded".

No value specified: A master speed that changes or a parameter update via "InitData" or "Execute" can result in different, automatically calculated motion profiles.

Value specified: Specifying the maximum speed value of the master axis that is achieved while coupled to the slave axis results in a motion profile that is always automatically calculated the same.
