Master/Slave Coupling (Masldef, Masldel, Maslon, Maslof, Maslofs) - Siemens SINUMERIK 840D sl Programming Manual

3.16.8

Master/slave coupling (MASLDEF, MASLDEL, MASLON, MASLOF, MASLOFS)

The "master/slave coupling" enables:
● The coupling of the slave axes to the master axis, when the axes involved are at standstill.
● The coupling/decoupling of rotating, speed-controlled spindles.
● The dynamic configuration.
Note
Positioning mode
For axes and spindles in the positioning mode, the coupling is only closed and opened at
standstill.
