Function
Coupling type for which the traversing movement of a coupled-motion axis is derived from a master value axis via a programmable coupling factor.
When a defined leading axis moves, the coupled-motion axes (following axes) assigned to it travel the traverse paths derived from the leading axis, taking into account a coupling factor (setpoint coupling). Together, the leading axis and the following axes form a coupled-axis grouping.
Definition and activation of a coupled-axis grouping take place simultaneously with the modal instruction TRAILON. A coupled-axis grouping can consist of any desired combinations of linear and rotary axes. A coupled-motion axis can be assigned up to 2 leading axes (in different coupled-axis groupings). A simulated axis can also be defined as the leading axis.
In this case the real axis is traversed, taking into account the coupling factor.
