Create a Group

The basic functionality in coordinated motion is to combine several axes in a movement in 3D-cartesian space. The combination of axes is named “group” and the movement is executed by the group.

Several axes could be combined to realize a group which performs coordinated motions in a specific coordinate sys-tem. The single axis block from CompactMotion_AC500 Library will be available too, and have to be combined with the group-block to realize the complete functionality. The Group-Block does not realize a position control or direct access to an axis, therefore the CompactMotion_AC500 library is used for this.

architecture

The COMC_GROUP_CARTESIAN supports interpolation in a 3-dimensional Cartesian space. The MCS AXES repre-sent the 3 axes for this system. Depending on the mechanical construction, 3 or more real axes are necessary to realize the 3 dimensional movement. These are named ACS AXES and linked by a kinematical transformation to the MCS AXES.
