Commissioning

Warning
Moving masses can cause personal injury and
material damage (risk of crushing).
• Make sure that, in the travel range,
– nobody can place his/her hand in the path
of the moving components (e.g. through a
protective guard),
– there are no foreign objects in the path of
the moving components
It should not be possible to touch the EPCO
until the mass has come to a complete stand-
still.
Note
The motor can unexpectedly be started if the brake is released. Depending on the type
of device, the controller will unlock the holding brake automatically.
• Before releasing the holding brake, make sure that the EPCO cannot move
unexpectedly.
• Complete the commissioning of the motor in conjunction with the controller in
accordance with the controller manual.
Note
Incorrect set values for the braking ramp in STOP statuses (e.g. EMERGENCY OFF, Quick
Stop) result in an overloading of the spindle axis and can destroy it or drastically reduce
its service life.
• Check the settings for all braking ramps in your controller or the higher-order control
system (deceleration values and jerk).
• Taking the travel speed, moving mass and mounting position into account, make
sure that the delay values (brake delay and time delays) are set in such a way that
the maximum actuation moment or feed force of the spindle axis used is not
exceeded.
• To design the spindle axis use the Festo sizing software "PositioningDrives"
( www.festo.com).
