POSITION CONTROL
This is mainly the control of position and
dimension, such as in fixed-feed, positioning,
numerical control, etc. This is always
controlled with feed pulses. There is also
speed control.
Drive units may differ, even when the same
motor is used.
POSITION DETECTION MODULE
This is an abridged version of positioning.
There are two types on MELSEC, the
A1S62LS. This module has positioning and
limit switch functions, and can use a total of 16
channels. The following drawing shows an
example for 5 channels. A resolver is used in
the positioning detection.

POSITION LOOP GAIN
This is the ratio of the deviation counter droop
pulses to the command pulse frequency.

Droop pulses
The position loop gain can be set with the
drive unit. Raise the gain to improve the
stopping accuracy. However, overshooting will
occur if the position loop gain is raised too far,
and the operation will become unstable.
If the position loop gain is lowered too far, the
machine will stop more smoothly but the
stopping error will increase.

POSITION LOOP MODE
This is one servo control mode used in
positioning. It is a mode for carrying out
position control. The other servo control
modes are the speed loop mode for carrying
out speed control, and the torque loop mode
for carrying out torque control (current control).

POSITIONING
Accurately moving the machine from a point to
a determined point. The distance, direction,
speed, etc., for that movement are designated
by the user. Positioning is used in operations
such as cutting sheets, drilling holes in plates,
mounting parts on a PCB, and welding.
Positioning is also used with robots.
POSITIONING COMPLETE
Refer to the term "OPERATION PATTERN".
POSITIONING COMPLETE SIGNAL
This is a signal that occurs when the
positioning is complete. A timer set beforehand
starts when this signal is output, and the
machine movement stops for that time.
When this signal turns ON, the positioning
start signal turns OFF.
