Speed ​​setting

Setting of acceleration / deceleration time (indication to avoid step out)
[Acceleration / deceleration] Is there a setting that does not cause a step out?

There is no clear specification because it varies depending on conditions such as workpiece
weight and shape, center of gravity position, ball screw lead and so on.
The adjustment will be made with about 100 msec to 200 msec as a reference.

Slowing the stage moving speed as much as possible
I want to slow down the speed of the stage as much as possible.

It is possible by reducing the pulse volume from the controller. 
However, as vibration is likely to occur if the speed is slow, please consider increasing
the number of divisions with MS (micro step) if you want to drive the stage smoothly.

Can I speed up the MAX speed if the workpiece is light?
A 1 kg workpiece is mounted on a product with a 10 kg load capacity. Can MAX speeds be faster
than catalog guaranteed values?

The catalog warranty value does not change even if certain conditions are relaxed. 
Please use within the catalog guarantee value.

Does MAX speed get slower if resolution is finer?
Does the finer resolution lead to a slower MAX speed?

Even if the resolution becomes finer, the speed will not change as more pulses are sent to the driver. 
However, since there is a pulse setting range of the controller, use it within that range.

How to calculate the acceleration
I purchased a motorized X axis stage.
Please tell me the acceleration when moving at MAX speed.

The acceleration value changes depending on the setting of start pulse and acceleration / deceleration time.
Please see below as an example for selecting speed table No. 7 of our controller (DS102 series) and
calculating the value when full step setting is made.

▼ Speed ​​table No. 7
--------------------------------------------
Starting speed: 1000pps
Driving speed: 10000pps
Acceleration/deceleration time: 100msec
--------------------------------------------
* The controller of Suruga Seiki sets acceleration / deceleration time instead of acceleration value.

【Calculation example】
When using a product with resolution: 1 μm / pulse, MAX speed: 10 mm / sec,
it is set to reach from 1000 pps (starting speed) to 10000 pps (driving speed) in 100 msec
(acceleration / deceleration time).
Find the driving speed when the speed rises up to one second (1000msec) at the same acceleration rate.

(Driving speed: 10000pps - Starting speed: 1000pps) ÷ Acceleration / deceleration time: 100msec
x 1000msec + Starting speed: 1000pps
= 91000pps Since

As the movement distance per pulse is 1μm, the driving speed at 91000pps is 91000μm (= 0.091m).
Therefore, the acceleration is "0.091 m / sec ^ 2."
