Installation
Operational Guidelines
After installing the motor and before powering up your system for the first
time, performed the Motor Coil Electrical Test on page 23 to verify motor
condition.
ATTENTION
Moving parts can injure. Before running the motor, make sure
all components are secure and the magnet mounting hardware
is below magnet surface. Remove all unused parts from the
motor travel assembly to prevent them from jamming in the
motor air gap and damaging the coil or flying off and causing
bodily injury.
Run away condition: incorrect motor-hall (commutation) wiring
and position feedback (position encoder) to servo control can
cause uncontrolled speeding.
Keep away from the line of motor travel at all times.
High Voltage can kill. Do not operate with protective covers
removed. Do not go near electrically live parts.
Maximum Safe Speed: Linear motors are capable of very high
forces, accelerations and speeds. The maximum obtainable
acceleration and speed is based on the drive output (bus
voltage and current settings). The allowable maximum speed is
application specific and partly based on the linear motion
mechanics supplied by others.
IMPORTANT
You are responsible for ensuring the servo control system safely
controls the linear motor with regards to maximum safe force,
acceleration and speed, including runaway conditions.
