Torque / force data scaling

Hi,

I am making some torque measurments on a protoype to see if I can consider downsizing an axis. That is why I need to be sure of the values and units.

With the following settings in the drive :

The torque is calculated as follow :

T = M / (Factor * 10^Exponent)

T : actual torque in [Nm]

M : arAxisStatus_gb[1].Data.ActValues.Torque

  • So if M = 3, the actual torque T in [Nm] is : 3 / (1 * 10^-2) = 300 Nm ?

  • What is the "Resolution" used for, is it the outcome of the Factor and Exponent parameters ?

  • With this setting the output value must be divided by the "Resolution" value ?

I checked the documentation but the description of the parameters couldn't answer these interrogations.

Torque/force data scaling: Type (0x2906:01 / S-0-0086 / --) - Bosch Rexroth Product Information Portal

Thanks in advance for your support.

Thomas
