Safe drive monitoring
The movements of the CNC portal, which the worker cannot predict and which can be very rapid, represent hazardous points during the machining process. The modules of the Drive Monitor FX3-MOC safely monitor the electric drive system of the CNC plasma arc cutting line in conjunction with the signals of the Flexi Soft safety controller. Depending on the performance level required or the drive used on the machine, it may be necessary to attach an additional incremental encoder (e.g., DFS60) and forward its signal to the safe control separately for evaluation purposes.
