Using the S-Curve Function
Topic Description

The S-Curve function is used in Yaskawa drives to soften the initial start and end periods of the acceleration and deceleration times to minimize abrupt shock to the load.

For example, a conveyor belt application with bottles may require longer S-curve times to prevent the bottles from tipping over when the drive starts and stops the motor.


Resolution

Adjust the S-curve times as needed.

  • Note: Not all S-Curve parameters are available in all drive models.
Parameter Description
C2-01 S-Curve at Start of Accel
C2-02 S-Curve at End of Accel
C2-03 S-Curve at Start of Decel
C2-04 S-Curve at End of Decel

The S-curve times will increase the total acceleration and deceleration times as shown below.
