Overview

Task

Mechanical collision of feed units whose motion ranges overlap is prevented by the axis collision monitoring function (collision monitoring). The motion ranges here run in parallel.

Characteristics

If a configurable limit is exceeded, the CNC generates an error message and the axes are stopped.

The collision monitoring function is used for gantry machines with linear drives with 2 or more slides or strut kinematic machines.

Parametrisation

The position monitor is configured for each individual axis in the axis parameter list. A complete list of parameters described in this document is contained in the chapter Parameters.
