ATTENTION
!
Moving parts can injure. Before running the motor, make
sure all components are secure and magnet mounting
hardware is below magnet surface. Remove all unused parts
from the motor travel assembly to prevent them from
jamming in the motor air gap and damaging the coil or
flying off and causing bodily injury.
Runway condition: incorrect motor/hall (commutation)
wiring and position feedback to servo control can cause
uncontrolled speeding.
Keep away from the line of motor travel at all times.
High Voltage can kill. Do not operate with protective
covers removed. Do not go near electrically live parts.
Maximum Safe Speed: Linear motors are capable of very
high forces, accelerations and speeds. The maximum
obtainable acceleration and speed is based on the drive
output (bus voltage and current settings. The allowable
maximum speed is application specific and partly based on
the linear motion mechanics supplied by others.
IMPORTANT
The customer is responsible for ensuring the servo control
system safely controls the linear motor with regards to
maximum safe force, acceleration and speed, including
runaway conditions.
