The firmware Calculates the optimum Y Axis position for loading the plate onto
the drum; this is dependent on plate size. load_max_y is the most rearward
position (i.e. the greatest distance from the PY home) that is used for the
largest plates (32" mss). The most forward position for PY during load
is load_min_y used for the smallest (18" mss) plates. Plate sizes in between
use a PY position proportionally between Lmax and Lmin.
These parameters should be set up only for smallest and largest spec plates
(nothing to do with what the customer is using) because the calculation is
ratiometric to the largest and smallest plate sizes that the machine can handle.
The purpose is to get the plate tanget to the drum for all plate sizes
using the PY load position.

The picker Y position for loading is calculated as a proportion of the
load_min_y - load_max_y dependent on the plate size. Smaller plates ( near
ALE_MIN_PLATE_SIZE ) will position the picker nearer load_min_y side, that
is, more towards the front of the machine.
