- What is an ATC?arrow_forwardPlease solve it fastarrow_forwardThe worktable of a CNC machine tool is driven by a closed-loop positioning system that consists of a servomotor, ball screw, and optical encoder. The screw has 4 threads/in and is coupled directly to the motor shaft (gear ratio = 1:1). The optical encoder generates 180 pulses per motor revolution. The table is programmed to move a distance = 6.0 in at a feed rate = 25.0 in/min. (a) How many pulses are received by the control system to verify that the table has moved the programmed distance? Determine (b) the pulse rate and (c) motor speed that correspond to the specified feed rate.arrow_forward
