Feed Rate
setting is top speed selected.
Acceleration
percentage is the rate of increase and decease to and from the
Feed Rate
level.
Slip Sensitivity:
Is the level of acceptable slippage in the wire feed. The higher this value is the less chance
there is slipping on the wire, this reduces wear on the feed roller and damage to the wire. However the higher this
value is the greater the chance of nuisance shutdowns.
Depart Accel
is how fast the arm gets up to the swinging velocity as it leaves the cutter. For very flexible wires it
may be necessary to reduce this speed to prevent the wire from bending.
Depart Velocity
is the speed of the arm as it leaves the cutter. For very flexible wires it may be necessary to
reduce this speed to prevent the wire from bending.
Feed Pivot
is the position of the arm as the wire is fed. 1% means the wire is feeding down the center of the
conveyor. 100% means it is feeding toward the back of the conveyor. This is sometimes necessary for curly
wires that tend to fall off the conveyor belt while feeding.
Length Calibration
compensates for the varying feed characteristics between wire types.
