Auto Servo Tuning AST

Auto Servo Tuning AST

Function

Auto Servo Tuning AST automates the process of adapting parameters to the control equipment, which controls the axes of a CNC machine. The parameters are adapted according to the frequency response measurement of the machine dynamics. One of the benefits of Auto Servo Tuning AST is that it facilitates the measuring process.

The axis control loops are individually optimized according to the target parameters selected by the user for an adaptive strategy. In a second step, the control loop parameter settings are adjusted for axes that are identified as being involved in an interpolation path, with the result that the correct dynamic response is obtained for all axes. This adaptation ensures coordinated movement of all the axes along the interpolation path.

Benefits

• High stability and quality for motion control involving a wide range of different workpiece weights or clamping operations, and for linear and torque motors
• Optimum productivity of the machine tool due to controllable dynamic response adaptation to production conditions
