Numerical controller having function of switching position control gain during synchronous control

Abstract

A numerical controller outputs a position command corresponding to a synchronous position in consideration of a servo delay of a slave axis, to the slave axis from a real position of a master axis, in order to perform position control of the slave axis, thereby making a real position of the slave axis synchronously follow the real position of the master axis. A position control gain of the slave axis is changed based on a predetermined physical quantity during the synchronous control and a compensation value for the position command for the slave axis is varied depending on the amount of change of the position control gain of the slave axis.
