Static friction failure prediction function [A]
■Friction failure prediction function method of use
Follow these procedures when using the static friction failure prediction function. For the static friction failure prediction
function, threshold that outputs a warning can be calculated automatically inside the servo amplifier using the automatic
threshold setting or set with servo parameters using the manual threshold setting. With the manual threshold setting, the
threshold that outputs a warning can be set to any value.
Set [Pr. PF51.5 Static friction failure prediction warning
selection] to "2" (Manual threshold setting).
Drive the servo motor.
The static friction and dynamic friction (at rated speed) are
estimated.
Save the data of the estimated static friction and dynamic friction.
Set a threshold with the following servo parameters.
[Pr. PF69 Static friction failure prediction - Average
characteristics]
[Pr. PF70 Static friction failure prediction - Standard deviation]
[Pr. PF52.4 Static friction failure prediction - Threshold
multiplication]
The setting of [Pr. PF52.5 Static friction failure prediction - Static
friction selection] is changed depending on the operation pattern.
Has the servo motor total travel
distance exceeded the value of
[Pr. PF41 Failure prediction -
Servo motor total travel distance]?

NO
The threshold is automatically calculated.
The settings of [Pr. PF69 Static friction failure prediction - Average
characteristics] and [Pr. PF70 Static friction failure prediction -
Standard deviation] are changed based on the data of the

failure prediction warning].
NO
To calculate the threshold, after frictions have been
estimated, the equipment must be operated for 3
consecutive hours or more and operated in the
position mode, or velocity mode for a cumulative
time of 90 hours or more.
NO
Aging of the equipment is
estimated by comparing the
saved data of static friction
and dynamic friction with the
data being read while the
equipment is in operation.
