MPS75SL/SLE Hardware Manual Maintenance
Chapter 4: Maintenance
This chapter provides information about intervals between lubrications, details of the lubrication and
inspection process, and recommendations of lubricants for use.
N O T E : The bearing area must be kept free of foreign matter and moisture; otherwise, the performance
and life expectancy of the stage will be reduced. Always operate the stage with the hard cover and side
seals in place to help keep dirt out.
D A N G E R : Remove power before connecting or disconnecting electrical components or
cables. Failure to do so may cause electric shock or damage to the equipment.
4.1. Service and Inspection Schedule
Lubricant inspection and replenishment in MPS75SL/SLE series stages depends on conditions such as duty
cycle, speed, and the environment. An inspection interval of once per month is recommended until a trend
develops for the application. Longer or shorter intervals may be required to maintain the film of lubricant on
the bearing surfaces.
If the application process uses only a small portion of travel for most of the duty cycle, periodically drive the
stage through full travel to redistribute the lubrication in the bearings and ball screw. The ball screw end
bearings and motor bearings are sealed, and should not need to be relubricated under normal use.
Monthly inspections should include but not be limited to:
l
Visually inspect the stage and cables.
l
Re-tighten loose connectors.
l
Replace or repair damaged cables.
l
Clean the MPS75SL/SLE and any components and cables as needed.
l
Repair any damage before operating the MPS75SL/SLE.
l
Inspect and perform an operational check on all safeguards and protective devices.
