4 Motor Installation
This chapter provides detailed information about bonding the Ceramic Driving
Strip and mounting and connecting the EDGE & EDGE-4X motors before
operation.
To ensure peak motor performance, use of the Ceramic Driving Strip provided by
Nanomotion is recommended. The Ceramic Driving Strip is specifically designed
to work with Nanomotion's EDGE & EDGE-4X motors. Substituting this Strip with
any other material might reduce motor performance or damage the motor and will
void product warranty.
Mounting Base Design Considerations
4.1
7 for motor and mounting base drawings - note that mounting
base dimensions refer to the front surface of the Ceramic Driving Strip. The
mounting base should be perpendicular to the Ceramic Driving Strip.
Both screws securing the motor to the mounting surface are inserted from the top
of the motor. In multi axis application make sure that any protrusion of the
screws does not interfere with motion on another axis.
IMPORTANT:
•
The mounting base, the stage and the method used for mounting should
be designed for maximum mechanical rigidity and stiffness
≥ 5 N/
µ
m for EDGE motor and > 10 N/
µ
m for EDGE 4X motor.
•
The ceramic strip surface should move parallel to the motion. The
maximum allowable run-out of the strip should not exceed ±0.03mm
