9 Operation
Hot surfaces of the electric motors in operation!
Burns can result from the > 65 °C surfaces.
Provide for appropriate guard devices.
Let the unit cool down at least 30 minutes before performing maintenance
and/or repair work.
9.1 Notices regarding operation
9.1.1
Wear
• The principle of individual components leads to unavoidable wear. Structural
measures and choice of materials are used to achieve functional reliability for the
full service life. However, wear is also dependent on the operating, maintenance
and ambient conditions at the place of use (resistance, contamination).
• Overloading conveyor sections can lead to failure of the conveyor and the
premature failure of motors and gearboxes.
• If the pneumatically activated components are overloaded, it is not possible to
guarantee their function.
9.1.2
Measures to minimize wear
The following measures will reduce wear:
• Switch off the conveyor line when at standstill e.g. during breaks, at night, at
weekends.
• Do not select a higher speed for the conveyor line than that required for the
corresponding function.
• Avoid contamination due to abrasive media, reduce contamination by cleaning on a
regular basis.
9.1.3
Loading the workpiece carrier
In the design and testing of the units it is assumed that the workpiece carriers will
not all have the same weight in one line section in one cycle. Loaded and unloaded
workpiece carriers are mixed.
Signifi cantly different weights may require special measures to avoid malfunctions.
This applies to:
• the permitted congestion length before separating stops.
• the damper functionality.
• damped separating stop.
