Malfunctions

10.1

Fault clearance

WARNING

Unexpected movement of components.
Injury due to impacts or crushing.
• Before working on the product, switch off the control and secure it to prevent it

from being switched back on accidentally.

WARNING

Risk of injury due to unexpected movement of components.
• Protect the positioning range from unwanted intervention.
• Keep foreign objects out of the positioning range.
• Perform commissioning with low dynamic response.

Malfunction

Possible cause

Remedy

Loud running noises
or vibrations or rough
running of the slide.

Coupling distance too
short.

Observe permissible coupling spacings

Torsional stresses

Install the mini slide without tension. Make
sure that the contact surface is flat

 6.4

Mounting mini slide.

Change the layout of the attachment compo-
nent, e.g. payload.

Align slide and attached guide element par-
allel to each other.

Current controller set-
tings.

Optimise controller values, e.g. velocity, acceler-
ation, etc.

Resonance oscillation
of the slide.

Change the travel velocity.

Wear on bearing or
guide.

Contact local Festo Service.

Replace slide 

è

Wear of the ball screw
drive.

Check reversing backlash

Insufficient lubrication
of the piston rod.

Lubricate the piston rod 

è

 9.4 Lubrication.

Vibrations on the slide. Operation at the res-

onance point of the
slide.

Change the travel velocity.

Change the acceleration.

Increase slide rigidity, e.g. shorter support
distances.

Change the payload geometry.

Long oscillations of the
profile.

Resonant frequency of
profile and payload too
low.

Increase slide rigidity, e.g. shorter support
distances.

Change the payload geometry.

Slide does not move.

Coupling slips.

Check the mounting of the shaft-hub connection

è

 Instruction manual of the motor mounting kit,

è

  www.festo.com/sp.

Loads too high.

Reduce forces and torques. Consider dynamics.

Screws for mounting
the attachment com-
ponent are too long,
e.g. payload.

Observe the screw-in depth 

è

 6.5 Mounting the

attachment component.

Ball screw drive
blocked.

Contact local Festo Service.

Replace slide 

è

  www.festo.com/catalogue.

Pre-tension of toothed
belt too high in parallel
kit.

Reduce the pre-tension of the toothed
belt 

è

 Instruction manual for parallel kit,

è

  www.festo.com/sp.

Operation at the lower
ambient temperature
limit.

Optimise controller data, e.g. velocity, accel-
eration, ...

Use gear unit.

Slide jammed in the
mechanical end posi-
tion.

Manually releasing a jam:

Switch off the controller and lock it to prevent
it from being switched on again unintention-
ally.

Remove motor and motor mounting kit.

Rotate drive shaft freely.

Overruns the end posi-
tion.

Sensor does not
switch.

Check sensor, installation and parameterisation.

Idling torque too high.

Wear in the drivetrain.

Contact local Festo Service.

Disassembly

WARNING

Unexpected movement of components.
Injury due to impacts or crushing.
• Before working on the product, switch off the control and secure it to prevent it

from being switched back on accidentally.

WARNING

Risk of Injury due to Unexpected Movement of Components
For vertical or slanted mounting position: when power is off, moving parts can
travel or fall uncontrolled into the lower end position.
• Bring moving parts of the product into a safe end position or secure them

against falling.

1. Disconnect electrical installations.
2. Remove the mounted attachment component.
3. Remove the attached accessories.
4. Remove motor and mounting kit.
5. Remove the mounting attachments.
6. Observe transport information
