Mover
Better running characteristics Beckhoff recommends greasing the running surfaces on the curved rails with Vaseline before mounting the movers and commissioning the XTS Hygienic. |
- ►Grease the running surfaces on both sides of the curved rails 1 and 2 with Vaseline
- ►Loosen and remove screws 1
- ►Remove lock 2
- ►Screw set screw 1 into the module
- ►Push guard plate 1 over the set screw onto the module
- ►Place rail on support 1 on the module
- ►Tighten screws with sealing rings 1 hand tight to fix the rail on support
WARNING | |
Risk of crushing due to strong magnetic attraction When mounting the movers on the rails, always hold them tight with both hands. The magnetic plate set of the mover and the modules strongly attract one another magnetically. If you do not hold the movers tight with both hands in a controlled manner, the magnetic forces can attract the movers in an uncontrolled manner to the XTS Hygienic and cause serious crushing injuries to the hands and fingers or damage to the system. |
- ►For the alignment, note that encoder magnet 2 and LED status display 4 are on the same side of the system when railing-on
- ►Position mover 1 with encoder magnet 2 centrally over the rail on support 3
- ►Make sure when mounting the movers that the guide rollers 1 of the movers do not press against the edges 2 of the rail on support
- ►Place mover 1 carefully with both hands centrally onto the rail on support 2
As soon as you place the magnetic plate set 2 of the mover 1 in the vicinity of the module 3, the magnetic plate set and the module attract each other magnetically.
- ►Carefully push the mover 1 by hand along the guide rail 2 and out of the rail on support
The mover is now mounted on the guide rail.
- ►Mount all further movers in the same way
When all remaining movers have been mounted:
- ►Check all round that the air gap between the magnetic plates 1 of the movers and the modules 2 is symmetrical on both sides of the system and is approximately 0.70 mm
- ►Check that the magnetic plates are positioned parallel to the modules
Remove rail on support
- ►Loosen and remove screws 1
- ►Remove rail on support 2
- ►Remove guard plate 1 and set screw 2
- ►Fit the lock again
- ►Observe tightening torques:
