CAUTION
Do not touch the servo amplifier's heat radiating fins, regenerative resistor and servomotor, etc.
while the power is ON and for a short time after the power is turned OFF. In this timing, these
parts become very hot and may lead to burns.
Always turn the power OFF before touching the servomotor shaft or coupled machines, as these parts
may lead to injuries.
Do not go near the machine during test operations or during operations such as teaching.
Doing so may lead to injuries.
Always install a leakage breaker on the Motion controller and servo amplifier power source.
If installation of an electromagnetic contactor for power shut off during an error, etc., is specified in the
instruction manual for the servo amplifier, etc., always install the electromagnetic contactor.
Install an emergency stop circuit externally so that the operation can be stopped immediately and the
power shut off.
Use the Motion controller, servo amplifier, servomotor and regenerative resistor with the combinations
listed in the instruction manual. Other combinations may lead to fire or faults.
If safety standards (ex., robot safety rules, etc.,) apply to the system using the Motion controller,
servo amplifier and servomotor, make sure that the safety standards are satisfied.
Construct a safety circuit externally of the Motion controller or servo amplifier if the abnormal
operation of the Motion controller or servo amplifier differ from the safety directive operation in
the system.
In systems where coasting of the servomotor will be a problem during the forced stop, the emergency
stop, servo OFF or when the power is shut OFF, use dynamic brakes.
Make sure that the system considers the coasting amount even when using dynamic brakes.
In systems where perpendicular shaft dropping may be a problem during the forced stop, the emergency
stop, servo OFF or when the power is shut OFF, use both dynamic brakes and electromagnetic brakes.
The dynamic brakes must be used only during the forced stop, the emergency stop and errors where
servo OFF occurs. These brakes must not be used for normal braking.
The brakes (electromagnetic brakes) assembled into the servomotor are for holding applications, and
must not be used for normal braking.
The system must have a mechanical allowance so that the machine itself can stop even if the
stroke limits switch is passed through at the max. speed.
Use wires and cables that have a wire diameter, heat resistance and bending resistance compatible
with the system.
Use wires and cables within the length of the range described in the instruction manual.
The ratings and characteristics of the parts (other than Motion controller, servo amplifier, servomotor)
used in a system must be compatible with the Motion controller, servo amplifier and servomotor.
Install a cover on the shaft so that the rotary parts of the servomotor are not touched during operation.
There may be some cases where holding by the electromagnetic brakes is not possible due to the
service life time or mechanical structure (when the ball screw and servomotor are connected with a
timing belt, etc.). Install a stopping device to ensure safety on the machine side.
