2.2 General Description
Each TLS-4000 cabinet contains a high-performance robotics system for handling data
cartridges, a drive bay to accommodate the cartridge tape drives, at least one car-
tridge magazine, power supplies and printed circuit board assemblies (PCBAs) that
contain the TLS electronics. All models operate on any internationally available AC
power source. The TLS power cable and a single SCSI interface cable are the only re-
quired connections. The entire cabinet is pressurized and cooled by filtered air to en-
sure an optimum operating environment.
2.2.1 Motion Systems
TLS-4000 libraries contain up to four independent motion systems.
•
The Carriage moves up and down vertically along the Vertical (Y) Axis.
The Carriage is driven by a brushless DC motor, which turns a nut around
a fixed, precision leadscrew.
•
The Handler assembly extends and retracts along the insertion (Z) Axis
and is driven by a brushless DC motor that turn a precision leadscrew.
