3-2 Mounting direction of linear actuator
There are no restrictions on the mounting direction. However, please observe the following precautions.
3-3 Mounting method of linear actuator
3-4 Load conditions and moving toward pulling direction
◆
Apply 49 N (5
㎏
f) or more pre-load to secure the feeding accuracy of the linear actuator.
◆
When the actuator is used in the direction for pushing the output rod, set the hardness of the workpiece section
that touches the linear actuator head to HRc55 to 65.
To move a workpiece toward the rod pulling direction, utilize the spring or air cylinder restoring force as shown in
Fig.11.
At this time, keep the load fluctuations as little as possible.
Fig.11
Use either one of the following load (driving force) directions:
・
Direction to push the output rod
・
Direction to pull the output rod
CAUTION
When the actuator is operated in the vertical direction with the motor servo
OFF, if a load of about 421 N (43 kgf) is applied, the output rod may move
(reverse operation). When an actuator is used with a vertical load, place a
stopper or brake system on the load side as a safety measure for power
OFF.
CAUTION
