Troubleshooting
10.1
SCHUNK torque motor STM
10.1.1
STM is not turning
Possible cause
Corrective action
Interruption in the supply lines
Check the supply lines for defects
Check the electrical connections
No motion release
Check the converter settings
(see manual pertaining to the converter)
Converter is defective
Check whether there is voltage at the converter's output. If
there is no voltage:
a) Check the connection pin assignment
b) see manual pertaining to the converter
Target value line or communication
between master and controller is
interrupted
Check the target value line and communication.
Rotor is blocked mechanically
Check the mechanical components.
Check the evenness at the mounting surface (see chapter
Shaft encoder defective
Check shaft encoder and its connection. If a defect is
detected, the STM must be sent to SCHUNK with a repair
order.
Short-circuit between turns in the
motor
Check the difference of the winding resistance values. Do
not exceed the difference.
If the difference between the individual motor phases
exceeds 0.1 Ohm, the STM must be sent to SCHUNK with
a repair order.
Short-circuit to ground due to moisture
short-circuit to ground due to electrical
defect
Check the protective conductor.
Check the electrical connection and connectors for ground
leakage.
If the STM has a ground leak while the power cable is
disconnected, the STM must be sent to SCHUNK with a
repair order.
Incorrect phase connections
Check the electrical connections
Incorrect controller settings
Check the parameters and setting values
(see operating manual for the controller)
