Peter Nachtwey said:Our customers do it all the time. One must only do a simple calculation each scan ramp distance =(Velocity^2)/(2*decelertion rate). When the distance to go is less than or equal to the deceleration rate then the axis must start decelerating. Sometimes it is desirable to start ramping down one time period earlier so the equation becomes:
ramp distance =(Velocity^2)/(2*decelertion rate) + velocity*scan time.
Pardon my ignorance, but I was under the impression that the equation for that integral was V^2/d . Where did the 2d come from?
