Technology Overview
High Response Control Technology for Five-Axis Gantry Machining Centers.
ITRI’s high response control technology for gantry machining centers is composed of soft servo control for the position-loop and cross-couple control to adjust the velocity command of the servo drivers in real time, maintaining the dual servo motors in precise positional synchronization at all times. The technology uses standard EtherCAT protocol with soft servo control and can integrate various brands of servo motors for flexibility. Meanwhile, its rotation tool center point and inclined surface machining guidance functions can be applied to various fiveaxis gantry machining centers or B-axis mill-turn machines.
Applications & Benefits
ITRI has assisted several machine tool makers in developing high-end five-axis gantry machining centers and mill-turn machines.
