Specify Speed Reducing Rate in Manual Operation

The speed reducing rate in manual operation can be limited to 10% or less of that in automatic operation. This section provides the reduction rate calculation procedure using the maximum composite tool-end speed and the target speed in manual operation.

The example below uses a 3-axis mechanism configured based on the Cartesian coordinate system and limits the tool-end speed in manual operation to 250 mm/s or less.

1. Check the specifications of the 3-axis mechanism and calculate the maximum speed of each axis.
• 3-axis mechanism

X-axis: Max. speed 2000 mm/s
Y-axis: Max. speed 2000 mm/s
Z-axis: Max. speed 1000 mm/s

• Example of the maximum speed calculation

Lead/rev.: 40 mm/rev, Maximum motor rotation: 3000 rpm



2. Calculate the maximum composite tool-end speed.
• Example of the maximum composite tool-end speed calculation for a 3-axis mechanism



3. Calculate the speed reduction rate in manual operation.
• Example of the speed reduction rate calculation to limit the tool-end speed to 250 mm/s or less.


4. Enter the calculation result in "Speed reducing rate in manual operation" in the [Arm Setting] window.
