BALL SCREW
This is a type of screw, with balls lined up in
the threads like ball bearings. This is used for
positioning as the backlash is small, and
rotation is possible with little force.
Refer to the term "FEED SCREW".
BASE SHUT-OFF
The servo amplifier supplies power to the
servomotor by switching the power transistor.
Thus, the base is shut off to stop the power
supply to the servomotor when the servo is
turned OFF or when an alarm occurs, etc.
The servomotor will be free run at this time.
BLANK COVER MODULE
An empty unit used to improve the appearance
of blank slots in the main base and extension
base.
BOTTOM DEAD CENTER
Refers to the lower side of the machine
installation path during reciprocating operation
of the cam mechanism. Lowest section of the
cam.
Refer to the terms "RECIPROCATING CAM"
and "FEED CAM".
CAM
Machine element that conveys a specific
operation by directly contacting a section with
a simple-shape contactor such as a knife
edge, roller or plane.
CAM CURVE
An operation curve of the follower member
moved with the cam. this can be set with the
software package (SW0SRX-CAMP). The cam
curve names include uniform speed, uniform
acceleration,
5th power, cycloidal, modified trapezoid,
modified sine, modified constant speed,
trapechloid, multi-chord and harmonic, etc.
CAMP
Refers to the software package (SW3RN-
CAMP) used to create the cams for the virtual
mode's cam output.
CHANGE signal
The CHANGE signal is an external signal
used to change the speed/position control
from the speed control being executed to
position control.
CHARACTERISTICS OF CAM CURVES
Refers to the speed and acceleration of the
cam curve.
CIRCULAR INTERPOLATION
Automatic operation, in which the CPU makes
calculations so that an arc can be drawn when
positioning is carried out by simultaneously
operating both the longitudinal feed and
latitudinal feed motors.
Round shapes can be created by designating
the auxiliary point, radius and center point, and
if there are obstacles, these can be avoided.
Refer to the term "LINEAR INTERPOLATION".

COMMAND IN-POSITION
Signal that positioning data's fixed parameters,
which detects the difference of the positioning
address (command position) and current feed
value, and turns ON when the result matches
the setting value.
This is used to detect the positioning end point
address slightly ahead of its position to carry
out work beforehand.
