Creating and testing an axis
6.5.1
TO axis technology object
Note
You create the technology object (TO) axis in SIMOTION SCOUT TIA.
You can create the axis both in offline and online mode.
Technology objects represent the respective real objects, e.g. a position axis, in the controller.
The technology object axis offers the user a technological view of the drive and the encoder
(actuator and sensor) and provides technological functions, such as communication with the
drive, actual value processing, position control and positioning functionality. It executes control
and motion commands and indicates states and actual values.
Requirements
If you want to insert a real axis, you require a functional drive.
If you want to insert a virtual axis, you do not require a functional drive.
Note
Virtual axis
All axis types can also be virtual axes, i.e. they do not control real drives but are used as
auxiliary axes, e.g. as a leading axis for several following axes (line shaft).
Axis technologies
You can use the following axis technologies:
● Speed-controlled axis
Motion control is performed using a speed specification without position control.
● Positioning axis
Motions are position-controlled.
● Synchronous axis
The synchronous axis creates a grouping of the following axis and synchronous object.
● Path axis
The path axis type can be interconnected with a path object.
The path object can be used to calculate and traverse a linear, circular or polynomial path
in the 2D/3D coordinate system for at least two path axes and up to three path axes.
