Maintenance
This chapter contains key technical information about how to carry out maintenance work on the rotary indexing table.
A detailed description of the steps for care and maintenance can be found in the operating instructions. Additional infor-
mation on assembly aids and lubricants can be found on the Festo website (
5.1
Cleaning and lubricating the rotary indexing table
Clean the rotary indexing table using a soft cloth and a gentle detergent if necessary.
The rotary indexing table is otherwise maintenance free due to its lifetime lubrication. Regular removal of the lubricant on
the surfaces will reduce its service life.
Lubricate the following components after a conversion (e.g. to reciprocating motion):
• Piston chamber, seals, locking clip, gear racks, pinion and index plate.
The required lubricant (LUB-E1 silicone-free 20 ml) is included in the conversion kits and wearing parts kits.
General relubrication of the mechanical components every 5 million switching cycles is recommended.
5.2
Inspection interval for the shock absorber
Check the shock absorber after every two million strokes for:
• Oil leakage
• Hard knocking
• Function (shock absorber head must not remain in the retracted end position)
