Instrument description
4.1
Functions
The PSx3xxDP positioning system, an intelligent, compact, complete solution for
positioning auxiliary and positioning axes, consists of an EC motor, gear power amplifier,
control electronics, absolute measuring system and Profibus DP interface. The integrated
absolute measuring system eliminates the need for a time-consuming reference run.
Connecting to a bus system simplifies the wiring. A hollow shaft with adjustable collar
makes assembly quite simple. The positioning system is especially suitable for
automatically setting tools, stops or spindles for wood-processing equipment, packing
lines, printing equipment, filling units and other types of special machines.
PSx3xxDP positioning systems convert a digital positioning signal into an angle of
rotation.

Assembly
Hollow shaft:
The PSx3xxDP is mounted onto the machine by sliding the hollow shaft of the positioning
gear onto the axis to be driven and then securing it with an adjustable collar
(recommended diameter of the axis is either 8h9 or 14h9; wrench torque for screw:
1.5Nm). The adjustable collar should be tightened only just to the point where it can no
longer rotate freely.
Securing the pin under the hollow shaft into an appropriate bore will prevent further
rotation.
Solid shaft:
The PSx3xxDP is mounted on the machine by fixing the solid shaft with coupling and
intermediate flange to the axis of the machine.
Never apply force to the housing cover, e.g., for supporting weight.
Driving the PSx3xxDP
rearward is prohibited (e.g. it’s not allowed to turn the
output shaft by an external force)
