Installing the planetary gear unit

For installation of the planetary gear at the stepper motor please note the following:

  • The planetary gear of the AG1000-xxxx series are supplied with a separate adapter shaft and integrated sun wheel.
  • Slide the adapter shaft onto the stepper motor shaft up to the end stop and secure it with a heat resistant, industrial adhesive (e.g. WEICONLOCK AN306-60).
  • Before applying the adhesive to the adapter shaft, clean the motor shaft with a suitable solvent.
  • A cotter pin (not included) can be inserted through the mounting hole.
  • Slide the gear unit onto the motor shaft. Screw the gear flange to the motor flange. Ensure the screws are tightened evenly to avoid tensions in the component.
