摘要:
A motor control system capable of outputting motor control data contained in a numeric control device and inputting motor control data to the numeric control device as required, without using a proprietary connector and/or a switching unit. The control system has a numeric control device, a plurality of motor amplifiers for receiving a command from the numeric control device via a serial communication line, a plurality of motors such as servomotors each driven by each of the plurality of motor amplifiers, and a data I/O device for inputting and outputting motor control data, as analog data or digital data, included in software in the numeric control device. The data I/O device may also transmit motor control data, to the numeric control device, as analog or digital data.
摘要:
A data table stored in a numerical controller associates motors controlled by the numerical controller with information from sensors used by the motors. When the numerical controller is turned on, the contents of the data table are sent from the numerical control section to the motor control section. The motor control section controls each motor by using information from the sensors associated with the motor in the data table.

A control system contains a communications network, a host computer and a programmable logic controller (PLC). The host computer includes prioritized alarm queues for receiving prioritized alarms from the programmable logic controller. Alarms fall into either a local or a global category, and each category supports three types of alarms: warnings, alerts or faults.

A modular system for use with X-Y peripherals is provided. The system includes a master controller operatively connected to one or more slave X-Y peripherals in a network. Different types of slave X-Y peripherals are accommodated by the system, e.g. sewing machines and engravers. Each slave X-Y peripheral has a unique address for independent communication with the master controller. The master controller tracks the functional relationship existing between it and each slave X-Y peripheral using state architecture. Servo control of a tool or head in an X-Y peripheral is also disclosed. The tool is movable in a Z dimension relative to a workpiece residing in an X-Y plane. Method and apparatus are also provided for positioning a carriage of an X-Y peripheral at a home or reference position in one or more dimensions.

A control and/or regulating system of a machine for making a fibrous web, such as a paper and/or cardboard web, is provided. The system includes a plurality of actuators, each assigned to at least one final control element, for varying certain properties of the fibrous web to be made. The actuators form intelligent participants in a decentralized communications hardware structure in which they are coupled to one another via a closed pipeline ring and/or a local area network.

A machine-side position detection control unit (20) is provided in order to read a position feedback signal of a position detector (64) associated with a control axis (X axis) requiring machine-side position detection for controlling of a closed loop system. This makes unnecessary for providing a position detection control unit in a servoamplifier (30, 40, 50) for each axis. A numerical control unit (10) and the servoamplifier (30, 40, 50) for each axis are connected in a daisy chain form by a serial communication line.

This invention utilizes a system of interlinked modular hardware and modular software for continuously controlling the manufacture of a workpiece. By using a modular architecture, the system capabilities can be expanded or modified without requiring major redesign.
摘要:
A network consists of a programmable controller coupled to several sensors by an interface circuit. A common communication protocol is used to exchange messages containing commands and data between the devices coupled to the network. A protocol message packet has a header with fields for a task command, sensor identification, device status information and error codes. The header contains the same fields whether the message packet is for the interface circuit or one of the sensors connected to it. The headers for message packets going to and from the programmable controller and the interface circuit also have the same fields although the contents of the fields may vary depending upon the direction of the message packet. The message packet may also contain several data blocks each specifying a separate operation for the sensor to perform.
