7 Commissioning
Risk of injury or damage to other installation parts
due to quick linear movements of the transport devices
due to centrifugal load.
Only authorised personnel are permitted to commission the linear unit.
Risk of crushing due to incorrect direction of movement of the transport
devices.
Should the direction of rotation of the drive (motor or gear) and the
sliding carriage drive (spindle or toothed belt) not correspond, the
mounted transport devices may travel in the wrong direction. Around all
rotating parts (e.g. GX shaft) there is a risk of being pulled in, and of
clothing or body parts being caught up and trapped. There is also a risk
of crushing around the moving carriage and the rack-and-pinion drive.
These hazards can be countered by installing effective safety
mechanisms that comply with the current standards and are state-of-
the-art. These are not supplied with the linear unit and must be installed
by the manufacturer of the overall installation.
Only qualified electricians are permitted to carry out any work on the
electrical installation or check the direction of rotation.
Checking the
unit before
commissioning Before commissioning, the following must be checked:

whether the holding devices used are consistent with the mass and
acceleration information provided by the manufacturer,

whether the machine or installation in which the linear unit is
installed corresponds to the provisions set out by the machinery
directive, the harmonised standards, the European or national
standards,

whether the linear unit is correctly mounted

whether the inductive and/or mechanical limit switch is correctly
connected and functioning properly.

whether the direction of rotation of the motor shaft and, if
applicable, the intermediary gear corresponds to the direction of
rotation of the spindle or the toothed belt.
If there are faults detected during this inspection, commissioning is not
permitted.
Test run
In order to avoid any accidents or collisions, the linear unit must be
moved along the stroke several times at a rate slow enough that it can
be stopped immediately in case of an emergency.
The installation can be started up after it has been ensured that there is
no risk of a collision when exceeding the maximum stroke.
