Guide for commissioning the gear units

The procedure for commissioning is described as an example.
A different method may be appropriate or necessary, depending on the application of the equipment.

Check the assembly and alignment of the motor and the gear unit.
Check the drive components such as clutch, gear unit, belt pulley and gear unit for correct seating and setting (observe the permissible radial and axial forces).
Check the wiring and connections at the motor, stepper motor terminal and gear unit. Check that the earthing is correct.
Test the function of the holding brake, if used. (Apply 24V_DC, the brake must release).
Check whether the rotor of the motor revolves freely (release the brake, if necessary). Listen out for grinding noises from the motor and the gear unit.
Check that all the required measures against accidental contact with live and moving parts have been carried out.
Carry out any further checks which are specifically required for your system.
Now commission the drive according to the commissioning instructions for the stepper motor terminal.
During the installation and commissioning look out for chips or similar contaminants that may penetrate into the gear unit. Keep the work area clean and protect the gear unit from foreign objects. Penetration of dirt reduces the service life of the gear unit.
