Hi,
I have a project where one of the modules is a gantry type structure with 2 servo motor, one from each side of the gantry. The transmission is achieved via leadscrew.
The controller is Compact Logix L33ER.
The task is to synchronize both servo in order to move the gantry smoothly.
I was thinking to use Add-On Instructions like MAM and MAG but as I did some experiments the gantry does not move smoothly.
Another rumour I heard is that Kinetix 5100 cannot be used for Motion Control and in order to achieve this type of motion I would need a Motion Controller.
How would you approach this task?
Best Regards
Konstantin Kolev
