Decommissioning
When disassembling or deactivating the motor, please follow the orders instructed below:
Warning
! Risk of Personal Injury or Damage to Property.
If you do not follow the orders to deactivate the motor, it may cause personal injury, death
or property damage.
Please disassemble or deactivate the motor according to the order below.
1.
Stop operating servo motor and wait for the driver power supply to discharge
completely.
2.
Remove all power cables, signal cables.
3.
If necessary, isolate all power connections to avoid the risk of electric shock due to
voltage generated by the rotating motor during disassembly, or braking torque due to
short circuits.
4.
Clean the foreign matter, debris and dust on the motor.
5.
When there are fixation plates of motor or self-designed motor fixing jigs, use these
plates/jigs to fix the motor. If the guiding fixture method is used, it is necessary to
confirm that the related fixture and configuration are installed.
6.
Remove all the fixings at the machine end. If the motor is fixed, it can be separated
from the machine at the same time; if the guiding method is used, please remove the
motor in the reverse order during assembly.
7.
Use the original packaging or a safe way to pack and store it correctly.

Disposal
Products need to be disposed according to the normal recycling process in accordance with
laws and regulations.
Warning
! Risk of Personal Injury or Damage to Property.
If the servo motor or related components (especially the rotor with strong magnets) are not
handled correctly, it may cause personal injury, death or property damage.
Please ensure that the servo motor and related components are disposed of correctly.
Appropriate disposal process:
The permanent magnets in the rotor assembly must be completely demagnetized.
The components to be recycled need to be disassembled:
–
Electronic waste (e.g. encoder components, temperature control modules, etc.)
–
Electrical waste (e.g. stator, cables, etc.)
–
Scrap metal alloys (classified by metal)
–
Insulation material
No mixing with solvents, cold cleaning agents, or residue of paint.
