Synchronous control unit for synchronizing two shafts with each other

摘要

In the first synchronous system of the synchronous control unit (1), movement commands of the first motor (23) and the second motor (13) made by the movement command making section (9), which are synchronized with each other, are respectively supplied to the first amplifier (22) and the second amplifier (12) through the first communication path (11) and the second communication path (21). In the second synchronous system switched from the first synchronous system, the first motor (23) is decelerated by a deceleration command made by the deceleration making section (29) and the second motor (13) is decelerated synchronously with the first motor by a movement command made by the position feedback value controlled by the first motor (23) supplied to the second amplifier (12) through the third communication path (31).
