Chapter 3 Installing the LDL-Series Linear Motor
Installing the Linear Motor
Components Use the following procedures to install the magnet channel and the
motor coil.
Required Tools:
• Aluminum straight edge
• Non-magnetic M4 or M5 hex wrench
• Magnet channel alignment tool
Mount the Magnet Channel
1. Select screw size and quantity.
The size of the Socket Head Cap Screw (SHCS) depends on
mounting configuration. The diagram shows three ways you can
mount your linear motor components. Mounting configuration B
de-rates the motor continuous force by 10%. See
Appendix A
starting on page 66 for SHCS quantity.
IMPORTANT
The alignment tool is shipped attached to the cables next to the
Hall effect module. Remove before operating the linear motor.
TIP
Non-magnetic tools and hardware made of beryllium copper,
300 series stainless steel, and others should be used. If not
available, proceed carefully since magnetic and ferrous items
will be attracted to the magnet channel.
