Table 3-1: Explanation of the parameterizable physical quantities
Physical quantity Description
DistanceToSensor
[mm]
Distance (clearance) between the axis zero of the "flying saw"
and the sensor to sense the material and print mark
StartPos
[mm]
Starting position of the cutting unit referred to the axis zero
point of the "flying saw".
SyncPos
[mm]
Position where the cutting unit reaches the specified material
position and material velocity. Starting point of the
synchronous range
EndSyncPos
[mm]
End point of the synchronous range. If, at this particular
position, sawing/cutting has still not been completed, then it is
now interrupted.
EndPos
[mm]
End point (end position) of the traversing range of the "flying
saw"
(software limit switch)
ToStartposVelocity
[mm/s]
Velocity for travel to the starting position
ToBackposVelocity
[mm/s]
Velocity with which the flying saw returns to its starting position
GapLength
[mm]
Length of the gap after the cutting unit has made a cut. This
gap is to be additionally created between the cut material and
the material web.
GapVelocity
[mm/s]
Superimposed velocity with which the gap is to be created
GearingRatio
Ratio between measured and effective velocity of the material
web.
AccelerationCut
[mm/s²]
Acceleration value for synchronization motion
AccelerationBack
[mm/s²]
Acceleration value for positioning motion back to the starting
position
AccelerationGap
[mm/s²]
Acceleration value for the higher-level positioning to create the
"gap"
Synchronous range
The synchronous range is located between SyncPos and the
EndSyncPos. The material is cut within this range.
