Abstract:
1. An AC servo system with distributed movement control providing multiple axes control for movement, the system comprising: a communication network; a master axis drive connected to the communication network; a master axis motor connected to the master axis drive; a plurality of slave axis drives connected to the communication network; a plurality of slave axis motors connected to the slave axis drives; and a personal computer or a man-machine interface connected to one of the drives; wherein the master axis drive and the slave axis drives can program movement control/logic control procedure and set operation parameter for each of the axis drives in order to control movement of local/remote motor and I/O signal, wherein the master axis drive performs the movement control procedure to send a path command to the communication network, and wherein the master axis drive calculates interpolation command for axis according to the path command and the slave axis drives calculates interpolation command for axis according to the path command sent through the communication network, whereby the master axis motor and the slave axis motors are driven according to the path command and the operation parameters.
