General Information

Overview

The cam motion editor is used to create and parameterize cam diagrams and assign them to FB_MultiCam / MC_Cam_ID function blocks. In turn, these diagrams can then be used by the Motion Sizer, for example, for drive sizing.

The cam diagrams are based on the motion laws defined in VDI 2143. They allow you to design the motion of your axis in relation to the position of a master axis φ. Cam diagrams are used to model the movement of a servo axis, which follows the motion of a virtual line shaft. The angle of this line shaft is described by φ.

You can define segments for each cam diagram that correspond to the different sequences of motion that your axis performs.
