S curve question

March 4, 2009 by ralph-cooper

I am in the process of evaluating the sizing software and have a

> question.

> I started with a very simple ball screw and some “manufactured

> parameters” to test out the application.

> The file as shown comes out correctly as far as peak torque is

> concerned (I calculated the values by hand), i.e., the results shows complete correlation to my hand calculated figures. However, this is with a trapezoidal curve and linear acceleration.  When I alter the motion parameter section to use 100% S curve and hit submit, I noticed two things…

> 1. The listed acceleration on the motion screen does not 

> change (this cannot be!)

> 2. The peak torque does not alter to suit in the final 

> report- with 2X acceleration (100% S curve) it should be much higher.
