Variant 3:
EGOFC(following spindle1)
The electronic gear is deactivated. The
following spindle continues to traverse
at the speed/velocity that applied at the
instant of deactivation. This call triggers
a preprocessing stop.
Note
This function is only allowed for spindles.
Deleting the definition of an electronic gear
An EG axis grouping must be switched off before its definition can be deleted.
EGDEL(following
axis)
The defined coupling of the axis grouping is deleted. Additional
axis groupings can be defined by means of EGDEF until the
maximum number of simultaneously activated axis groupings is
reached. This call triggers a preprocessing stop.
13.6.4 Revolutional feedrate (G95)/electronic gear (FPR)
Function
The FPR( ) command can be used to specify the following axis of an electronic gear as the
axis, which determines the revolutional feedrate. Please note the following with respect to
this command:
• The feedrate is determined by the setpoint velocity of the following axis of the electronic
gear.
• The setpoint velocity is calculated from the speeds of the leading spindles and modulo
axes (which are not path axes) and from their associated coupling factors.
• Speed parts of linear or non-modulo leading axes and overlaid movement of the following
axis are not taken into account.
