Installation

WARNING

Serious injuries due to strong magnetic forces of attraction

The permanent magnets of the magnetic plates and coils of the coil unit attract each other. The high forces of attraction cannot be controlled by hand. Contact can result in serious or even fatal injuries due to crushing.

Avoid standing within the travel range of the coil unit even when the machine or system is switched off

WARNING

Risk of injury due to incompatible magnetic plates

Non-approved magnetic plates are incompatible in the pole sequence and can cause serious injury and damage to the machine due to uncontrolled movements of the linear motor.

Only use original magnetic plates from the AL8xxx product series

Notice

Damage due to improper installation

Holes that are not marked may be present for production purposes. Using the holes for other mounting purposes can damage the motor.

Only use the illustrated holes for installation or other activities described in these operating instructions

During assembly, make sure that the magnetic track can be divided into two sections. The sections must be at least as large as the machine carriage.

	Clean the mounting surfaces Make sure that all mounting surfaces are oil-free, grease-free and unpainted. Remove any dirt or dust.

	Observe the mounting sequence First mount the coil unit on the machine carriage. Then mount the machine carriage including the coil unit on the guides. Finally, mount the magnetic plates.

	Observe the screw requirements Observe the minimum and maximum screw depths of the screws. Information on the screw depths can be found in the individual sections during mounting. Please observe the permissible torques and standards.
