The linear sliding table belongs to a high-precision fully closed-loop control motion structure. Generally, a grating encoder is used to configure a grating ruler, or a magnetic grating encoder is used to configure a magnetic grating ruler as a position feedback module, supported by precision guide rails. Therefore, the transportation, installation, and maintenance of the linear sliding table will directly affect the normal operation of the module. There are several requirements for daily maintenance of the linear slide table:
1、 Transportation and storage:
When packaging the linear slide table, it is necessary to protect the ruler surface and ensure that it does not come into contact with other parts or hard objects. At the same time, transportation and fixing work should be done to ensure that the ruler surface does not collide with other hard objects during transportation.
When operating the linear slide table, handle it gently to prevent impact and friction on the ruler surface. Do not bump on the grating ruler surface to avoid damaging it.
During the operation, installation, and use of the linear slide table, be careful not to touch the surface of the grating ruler to avoid contaminating it and affecting the reading of the reading head. If the encoder is a magnetic grid encoder, it is necessary to prevent magnetic objects from coming into contact with and approaching the magnetic grid ruler, in order to avoid magnetizing or rendering the magnetic grid ruler useless.
When storing the linear slide table for a long time, the environment should be kept dry, and attention should be paid to rust prevention of the guide rail, dust prevention of the grating ruler, and coating of rust proof oil on the guide rail.
2、 Installation and maintenance:
Before installation, please confirm whether the accuracy of the installation surface is consistent with that of the installed surface, and then clean the surfaces of both installation surfaces with a dust-free cloth.
During installation, remove the cover plate/steel strip of the linear slide table, and pre tighten it from one end to the other or from the middle to both ends. During installation, please pay attention to using stainless steel screws. When using an Allen wrench, please note that there is strong magnetism on the magnetic track and do not inhale it;
After assembling the linear sliding table, pay attention to checking for foreign objects on the magnetic track, and promptly clean up any problems found. Confirm that the reading head window and grating ruler surface are stained, that the connecting screws between the reading head and various components are loose, and whether the reading head signal light is normal after being powered on. The grating ruler surface is prohibited from touching foreign objects with hands. Oil stains, scratches, and surface cleaning can be cleaned with alcohol.
