Hi,
I have started a project to align some components together using some equipment that was left here from a previous project. Unfortunately I am completely new to Labview, but I have been watching the videos and playing around with it. I have a few people that may be able to support, but I thought it might be good to put a post up to see if anyone can help or if they have done something similar.
The transport equipment that we have includes:
- A linear guide that contains a ball screw and is driven by a AC servo moto model AKM23C-ANBNC-01 (Danaher Motions).
- A linear actuator that is placed onto the linear guide. Model is EC2-BK235-100-16B-60-MS6M-FT1M (Danaher
Motion)
The control hardware includes:
- PCI Motion Control Card (NI PCI 7344)
- Universal Motion Interface (NI-UMI-7774)
- Servo Drive Model (ServoStar S20360-VTS)
I have fully assembled all the hardware and plugged everything in. It just needs a program to run it all.
What I would like to do it make a control system that I can put in an X axis value and then put in a Y axis value so that it will move to whereever I tell it to. I will want to make a few adjustments to the Y value so I will need to keep changing that until I happy with the position. Is this achieveable?
I'm hoping that it is very simple to achieve this, I have had a go but it gets a bit complicated for a first labview experience.
