10 Fault clearance
Fault description Cause Remedy
Coupling spacing is wrong. Observe the permissible coup-
ling spacings
è
Instruction
manual for motor mounting kit.
Tensions – Install axis without tension.
Observe the evenness of
the mounting surface
è
7.1 Preparation.
– Change the arrangement of
the attachment ele-
ment/useful load.
– Align axis so it is exactly
parallel to the second axis.
Resonance point of the actuator Change the travel speed.
Squeaking noises, vibrations or
the axis is not running
smoothly.
Controller is set incorrectly. Change the parameters
(e.g. controller data).
Vibrations on the carriage Operation at the resonance
point of the axis. – Change the travel speed.
– Change the acceleration.
– Reinforce the axis mount-
ing.
– Change the useful load geo-
metry.
The swing-out time of the pro-
file is too long. The resonant frequency from
the profile and useful load are
too low – Reinforce the axis mount-
ing.
– Change the useful load geo-
metry.
Coupling spins. Check the mounting of the
shaft-hub connection
è
Instruc-
tion manual of the motor
mounting kit.
Loads too high. Reduce load mass/torques.
Retaining screws on tool are too
long. Observe the screw-in depth
è
7.3 Attachment.
Slide does not move.
Toothed belt has broken Replace axis
