Mover

Mover 1:

Better running characteristics

Beckhoff recommends greasing the running surfaces on the curved rails with Vaseline before mounting the movers and commissioning the XTS Hygienic.

Mover 2:
Grease the running surfaces on both sides of the curved rails 1 and 2 with Vaseline
Mover 3:
Loosen and remove screws 1
Remove lock 2
Mover 4:
Screw set screw 1 into the module
Mover 5:
Push guard plate 1 over the set screw onto the module
Mover 6:
Place rail on support 1 on the module
Mover 7:
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.

Mover 8:
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
Mover 9:
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
Mover 10:
Place mover 1 carefully with both hands centrally onto the rail on support 2
Mover 11:

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.

Mover 12:
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
Mover 13:

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

Mover 14:
Loosen and remove screws 1
Remove rail on support 2
Mover 15:
Remove guard plate 1 and set screw 2
Fit the lock again
