CamDescription
Curve profiles to be processed in the Camming operating mode are usually designed using the Cam Editor. Next, they are loaded to the memory card of the MOVI-C® CONTROLLER from where they are read for processing. Curve description can also be created in the IEC program. Using what are known as "constructors" is recommended in this case. You can find an application example in chapter Creating a curve description using constructors.
For each axis to which MOVIKIT® MultiMotion Camming is assigned, automatic code generation creates an instance of the type CamDescription, which is defined in the SEW MOS Camming library.
