The total motion time, Tt, is given by:
T
D
VS
T s
t a
= + =
0 407 .
The velocities along the X and Y axes are such that the direction of motion follows the specified path, yet the vector
velocity fits the vector speed and acceleration requirements.
For example, the velocities along the X and Y axes for the path shown in Fig. A.1 are given in Fig. A.3.
Fig. A.3a shows the vector velocity. It also indicates the position point along the path starting at A and ending at D.
Between the points A and B, the motion is along the Y axis. Therefore,
Vy = Vs
and
Vx = 0
Between the points B and C, the velocities vary gradually and finally, between the points C and D, the motion is in
the X direction.
