    ORIENTATION CONTROL AT A MACHINE END— V500 REMARKS *1. Servo rigidity: This is the response when a position control loop is configured. When the servo rigidity is raised, the holding force will increase, the running will stabilize, but vibration will occur easily. When the servo rigidity is lowered, the holding force will drop, and the setting time will increase.

    ORIENTATION CONTROL AT A MACHINE END— V500 6.5.7 Orientation Switchover Speed (1) Pr. 351 "orientation switchover speed" (factory setting: 200) •Set the speed when switching beween the speed control mode and the position control mode is performed under orientation operation. Decreasing the set speed enables stable orientation stop. Note that the orientation time will increase.
  • Page 88: Instructions

    ORIENTATION CONTROL AT A MACHINE END— V500 Instructions (1) The encoder should be coupled with the spindle oriented without any mechanical looseness. (2) The DC injection brake operated for positioning must be released in the shortest time (within several seconds). Operating the brake continuously can cause the motor to generate heat and burn out. (3) To ensure correct positioning, the encoder must be set in the proper rotation direction and the A and B phases connected correctly.
