3F88L-160 /162 Cam Positioners

Greater speed and precision increase machine productivity

High-speed detection is made possible by resolver speeds of 1,600 r/min at a resolution of 1°, or 800 r/min at a resolution of 0.5°. For each cam output, up to 180 steps can be set for 360 divisions/rotation, and up to 360 steps can be set for 720 division/rotation. Up to 8 program banks can be registered as well.

Smaller size means more economical use of space

With dimensions of 100 × 110 × 82.5 mm (H×W×D), the 3F88L-160/162 Cam Positioner occupies half the volume of earlier models*, and responds to the increased demand for smaller control panels and space-savings designs. 

* 32-point output type

The appropriate cam output corresponding to the rotation speed can be achieved through simple settings and operations

Program settings can be entered easily using the operation keys on the front panel, and data from one Cam Positioner can be copied to another using the copy function.

International standards such as UL/CSA acquired in response to global requirements

Conformance to UL/CSA and EC Directives (Low-voltage Directive and EMC Directive) allow the Unit to be used worldwide.

A variety of features that enables effective on-site use

 
In addition to the teaching, origin shift, and origin compensation functions featured in earlier models, the 3F88L-160/162 Cam Positioner is equipped with a host of new features. These include advance angle compensation, useful for matching the timing of press machines and food packaging machines; communications capability, a copy function for copy settings between Cam Positioners; a one-direction function; backlash compensation; and cam input hold.

Fitted with a communications port for connection to a personal computer

The 3F88L-160/162 Cam Positioner is fitted with a communications port that conforms to the CompoWay/F protocol*. This allows program to be read and written, and the present angle and speed to be monitored from a personal computer.

* A unified serial communications protocol developed by OMRON.
