1 PRODUCT OUTLINE
The principle of "position control" and "speed control" operation is shown below.
Position control
The total No. of pulses required to move the designated distance is obtained in the
following manner.
Total No. of pulses
required to move
designated distance
Designated distance
Movement amount of machine (load)
side when motor rotates once
No. of pulses
required for motor to
rotate once
=
The No. of pulses required for the motor to rotate once is the "encoder resolution"
described in the motor catalog specification list.
When this total No. of pulses is issued from the QD70 to the drive unit, control to move
the designated distance can be executed.
The machine side movement amount when one pulse is issued to the drive unit is
called the "movement amount per pulse". This value is the min. value for the workpiece
to move, and is also the electrical positioning control precision.
Speed control
Though the above "total No. of pulses" is an element needed to control the
movement amount, speed must be controlled to perform equal-speed operation.
This "speed" is controlled by the "pulse frequency" output from the QD70 to the drive
unit.

POINT
•
The "movement amount per pulse" is the value determined on the machine side.
(Refer to Section 1.1.3.)
•
The QD70 uses the "total No. of pulses" to control the position, and uses the
"pulse frequency" to control the speed.
