APPENDICES
AUTO TUNING (Automatic Tuning)
Properties such as responsiveness and
stability of machines driven with a servomotor
are affected by changes in the inertia moment
and rigidity due to changes in the machine
load, etc.
This function automatically adjusts the speed
loop gain and position loop gain to match the
machine state, so the machine's performance
can be maintained at its optimum state.
A real time automatic tuning function should be
used for machines having large load
fluctuations.
AUTOMATIC TRAPEZOIDAL
ACCELERATION/DECELERATION
An operation in which a graph of the time and
speed takes a trapezoidal shape.

BACKLASH COMPENSATION
When a forward run operation changes to a
reverse run operation, there is sometimes play
(backlash) in the mesh of the toothed gears.
This also occurs when using a worm gear.
Because of this backlash, a left feed of 1m
(3.28feet) carried out after a right feed of 1m
(3.28feet) will not be sufficient to return the
machine to its original position. The machine
cannot be positioned to its original position
without an extra feed equivalent to the
backlash amount. This function compensates
for that backlash amount.

BACKUP FUNCTION
Backup functions consist of the following.
1) Functions for storing the sequence program
and device statuses stored in the RAM
memory of the PLC CPU, so that they are
not lost during power failures, etc.
2) Functions for storing the current value in
absolute position compatible systems so
that it is not lost during power failures, etc.
3) Functions for reading the PLC CPU data
(PLC programs, parameters, positioning
data, etc.) by a peripheral device when the
old PLC CPU is replaced, and then write it
to the new PLC CPU after the replacement
is completed.
BALL SCREW
This is a type of screw, with balls lined up in
the threads like ball bearings. This reduces
backlash, and enables rotation with little force.
