Chapter 5 Trial Run and Tuning Procedure
This chapter, which is divided into two parts, describes trial run for servo drive and motor. One part is to
introduce the trial run without load, and the other part is to introduce trial run with load. Ensure to complete
the trial run without load first before performing the trial run with load.
5-1
Inspection without Load
In order to prevent accidents and avoid damaging the servo drive and mechanical system, the trial run
should be performed under no load condition (no load connected, including disconnecting all couplings and
belts). Do not run servo motor while it is connected to load or mechanical system because the unassembled
parts on motor shaft may easily disassemble during running and it may damage mechanical system or even
result in personnel injury. After removing the load or mechanical system from the servo motor, if the servo
motor can runs normally following up the normal operation procedure (when trial run without load is
completed), then user can connect to the load and mechanical system to run the servo motor.
CAUTION
z
Please perform trial run without load first and then perform trial run with load
connected. After the servo motor is running normally and regularly without load,
then run servo motor with load connected. Ensure to perform trial run in this order to
prevent unnecessary danger.
After power in connected to AC servo drive, the charge LED will light and it indicates that AC servo drive is
ready. Please check the followings before trial run:
Inspection before
operation
(Control power is
not applied)
1. Ensure that all wiring terminals are correctly insulated.
2. Ensure that all wiring is correct or damage and or malfunction may result.
3. Visually check to ensure that there are not any unused screws, metal strips, or
any conductive or inflammable materials inside the drive.
4. To avoid an electric shock, be sure to connect the ground terminal of servo drive
to the ground terminal of control panel. Before making any connection, wait 10
minutes for capacitors to discharge after the power is disconnected, alternatively,
use an appropriate discharge device to discharge.
5. Make sure control switch is OFF.
6. Never put inflammable objects on servo drive or close to the external regenerative
resistor.
7. If the electromagnetic brake is being used, ensure that it is correctly wired.
8. If required, use an appropriate electrical filter to eliminate noise to the servo drive.
9. Ensure that the external applied voltage to the drive is correct and matched to the
controller.
Inspection during
operation
(Control power is
applied)
1. Ensure that the cables are not damaged, stressed excessively or loaded heavily.
When the motor is running, pay close attention on the connection of the cables
and notice that if they are damaged, frayed or over extended.
2. Check for abnormal vibrations and sounds during operation. If the servo motor is
vibrating or there are unusual noises while the motor is running, please contact
the distributor or manufacturer for assistance.
3. Ensure that all user defined parameters are set correctly.
