F1: Travel to fixed stop
6.1 Product brief
Customer benefit
The "Travel to fixed stop" function can be used for operations such as traversing tailstocks or sleeves to an end
limit position in order to clamp workpieces.
Features
• The clamping torque and a fixed stop monitoring window can be programmed in the parts program and can
also be altered via setting data once the fixed stop has been reached.
• The "travel to fixed stop" function can be implemented for axes as well as for spindles with axistraversing
capability.
• The function can be implemented for several axes simultaneously and parallel to the motion of other axes.
• Torques or the power can be adjusted to a specific setting.
• Travel with limited torque/power (Force Control, FOC) can be activated.
• The "travel to fixed stop" functions can be enabled from synchronized actions.
• Block search with calculation, multichannel (SERUPRO).
Move axes with FXS and FOC in simulation mode.
• Vertical axes can also be moved with FXS to a fixed stop.
• With SW 6.4 and higher, VDI signals can be used to set a REPOS offset for each axis and display the FXS
status currently active on the machine after the search target has been located.
