2.7.4 Movement system
The G3 series has four electronically driven axes.
X axis - bar
The bar is driven by a motor via a toothed belt/gear mechanism and a toothed belt/
metal belt combination. The construction ensures that the function is backlash-free
and it also minimises wear on the drive system. The bar is supplied with control
signals and compressed air via an energy chain. All drive parts are protected against
direct access/contamination using covers.
X axis - material transport
The material transport takes place via conveyor clamp elements and feed elements
on the bar, which move the conveyor belt including the material to be used via the
bar movement. In the case of large cutters, or cutters with material transport
extension, an auxiliary drive is also used.
Y axis - module carriage
The module carriage is driven by a motor via a toothed belt/gear mechanism and a
metal belt. The construction ensures that the function is backlash-free and it also
minimises wear on the drive system. The module carriage is supplied with control
signals and compressed air via an energy chain. All drive parts are protected against
direct access/contamination using covers.
Z axis - height adjustment of the module
Machine-controlled setting of the processing height (e.g. universal module)
T axis - rotary movement of the module
Modules with integrated T axis (e.g. universal module)
