13.Setup of command division and multiplication ratio — Relation between Electronic Gear and Position Resolution or Travelling Speed

Abstract

The setting of the command division and multiplication ratio is the promise of an efficient automation system driven by a Panassonic A6 series of AC servo motor and driver. Here in this chapter we're discussing the relation between Electronic Gear and Position Resolution or Travelling Speed.

Here we take a ball screw drive as an example of machine.

A travel distance of a ball screw M[mm] corresponding to travel command P1[P], can be described by the following formula (1) by making the lead of ball screw as L[mm]

M=P1 x (D/E) x (1/R) x L ……………(1)

therefore, position resolution (travel distance ΔM per one command pulse) will be described by the formula(2)

ΔM = (D/E) x (1/R) x L ……………(2)

modifying the above formular (2), electronic gear ratio can be found in the formula (3).

D=(ΔM x E x R) x L ……………(3)

Actual travelling velocity of ball screw, V[mm/s] can be described by the formula (4) and the motor rotational speed, N at that time can be described by the formula (5).

V=F x (D/E) x (1/R) x L ……………(4)
N=F x (D/E)/(F x 60) ……………(5)

modifying the above formula (5), electronic gear ratio can be found in the formula (6).

D=(N x E)/(F x 60) ……………(6)

Note →

1. Make a position resolution, ΔM as approx, 1/5 to 1/10 of the machine positioning accuracy, Δε, considering a mechanical error.
2. Set up Pr0.09 and Pr0.10 to any values between 1 to 2³⁰.
3. The desired setting can be determined by selecting value of numberator and denominator of electronic gear. However, an excessively high division or multiplication ration cannot guarantee the operation. The ratio should be in a range between 1/1000 and 1000. Excessively high multiplication ratio will cause Err27.2 (command pulse multiplication error protection) due to varying command pulse input or noises, even if the other settings are within the specified range.

	Electronic gear ratio D=ΔM x E x R/L	D=Pr0.09/Pr0.10
Lead of ball screw, L=10mm Gear reduction ratio, R=1 Position resolution, ΔM = 0.005mm Encoder, 23-bit (E=223P/r)	0.0005 x 223 x 1/10 = 5 x 223/10 x 104 = 41943040/100000	Pr0.09 = 41943040 Pr0.10 = 100000

	Motor rotational speed (r/min), N = F x D/E x 60
Lead of all screw, L=20 mm Gear reduction ration, R=1 Position resolution, ΔM = 0.0005mm Line driver pulse input, 500 kpps Encoder, 23-bit	500000 x 0.0005 x 223 x 1/20 x 1/223 x 60 = 750
Ditto To make it to 2000 r/min	Electronic gear ratio D = N x E/F x 60	D = Pr0.09/Pr0.10
	D = 2000 x 223/500000 x 60 = 2000 x 223/2000 x 500 x 30 = 8388608/15000	Pr0.09 = 8388608 Pr0.10 = 15000
	Travel distance per command pulse (mm) (Position resolution) ΔM = D/E x 1/R x L
	2000 x 223/500000 x 60 x 1/223 x 1/1 x 20 = 0.00133 mm

Hybrid injection molding machine, a combination of the all electric injection molding machine and the hydraulic injection molding machine, it's no doubt one of the best injection molding machine for your IML project. A hybrid injection molding machine will have the precision of plastic injection also the much lower cost against the all electric injection molding machine.

One of the best buy hybrid injection molding machine made in China is the LDY series of hybrid injection molding machine made by Haida, one of the injection molding machine manufacturer founded in 1992 and is famous for the reliability of the injection molding machines. The LDY series of hybrid injection molding machine is their key products for thin-wall container production markets with a clamping force ranging from 100~420T.

For your IML project, the best IML robot to match Haida LDY series hybrid injection molding machine would be SWITEK SW8 Series IML robot, with control systems by European system provider SigmaTek, the cycle time of SW8 series of IML robot can reach 2.0s for the IML production of small size thin-wall containers or lids. It's one of the fastest IML robot made in China.
