MAINTENANCE AND ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS / MCE AND MSCE MINI ELECTRIC CYLINDERS AND SLIDERS
INITIAL START-UP
INITIAL START-UP
Before the initial start-up, check the followings:
•
electrical wiring and connection of the system,
•
mounted elements,
•
tightened mounting screws,
•
there are no physical stop limits over the entire maximum permissible travel range,
•
the limit switches are correctly adjusted,
•
there is no overloading of the product,
•
operating conditions,
•
direction of the movement of the piston rod (MCE) or the slide (MSCE) depending on the motor shaft rotation,
•
homing procedure (by the limit switch or physical end position, where the maximum permissible drive torque of the
product and homing travel speed of 10 mm/s are not exceeded),
•
application requirements.
For the values of the maximum permissible axial load,
lateral load, drive torque, travel and rotational speed
and acceleration, please refer to the product catalogue
MCE and MSCE (mini electric cylinders and sliders) and
catalogue Stepper systems.
Overloading
Overloading the product can lead to the product being
damaged.
Avoid from collision caused by the incorrectly adjusted
limit switches
Observe the maximum travel range of the MCE or MSCE.
Make sure that over the entire travel range there are no
physical stop limits, otherwise the product might get
damaged.
Unexpected movement of the components
During the operation, prevent the moving components
of the product getting into the contact (within the entire
travel range) with foreign objects, machine structure
or persons. Perform the initial operation of the product
with low dynamic response (~ 10 mm/s). Due to the no
self-locking effect of the ball screw drive the possible
unexpected movement of the piston rod (MCE) or the
slide (MSCE) must be taken into consideration.
Short circuiting caused by improper electrical
connection of the system
All the cables connectors must be assigned and plugged
in correctly, otherwise the product might get damaged.
Risk of burns from hot surfaces of the product
It should be noted, that during the operating process
hot surfaces of the product may occur. Before handling
the procedure, allow the product to cool down to the
appropriate temperature.
Loss of the reference when removing the motor
In the case the motor is removed, the reference position
may be lost. After the motor is remounted, it is important
to perform a homing procedure.
It should be noted that identical products can generate
different running noises during the operation.
