2 Safety Instructions

Contusions

Sliders contain neodynium magnets and have a strong attractive force.

Careless handling could cause fingers or skin to become pinched between two sliders.

This may lead to contusions, bruises, and bone fractures.

When handling sliders, wear thick protective gloves and keep a minimum distance between

sliders. Refer to the "Minimum distance from slider" section for minimum distance.

To reduce the risk of injury, never more than one slider should be held or transported by the

same person without packaging.

Pacemaker / Implanted Heart Defibrillator

Sliders could affect the functioning of pacemakers and implanted heart defibrillators. For the

duration of a strong approach to a magnetic field, these devices switch into test mode and

will not function properly.

•If you wear one of those devices keep the following minimum distances between the

pacemaker / defibrillator and slider:

- Min. 250 mm (10ʺ) for slider Ø 27 mm and 28 mm (PL01-27 / 28 / PL10-28)

- Min. 150 mm (6ʺ) for slider Ø 19 mm and 20 mm (PL01-19 / 20)

- Min. 100 mm (4ʺ) for slider Ø 12 mm (PL01-12)

•Inform others who wear these devices to comply with these minimum distances!

Caution - Risk of Electric Shock !

Before working, make sure that there are no high voltages.

Fast-moving Machine Parts

The sliders of LinMot linear motors are fast-moving machine parts. All necessary

precautions must be taken to prevent persons approaching the moving elements during

operation (provide covers, guards, etc.).

Automatic Restart

The motors can start automatically under certain cricumstances!

If necessary, a corresponding warning symbol must be provided and protection against

entering the hazardous area or a suitable safe electronic disconnection must be provided!

Risk of Injury due to a Defect or Fault

For areas where a defect or fault can result in substantial property damage or even serious

personal injury, additional external precautions must be taken or devices must be installed

to ensure safe operation even if a defect or fault occurs (eg. suitable safe electronic

disconnection, mechanical interlocks, barriers, etc.).

Magnetic Field

Magnets integrated in the sliders produce a strong magnetic field. They could damage TVs,

laptops, computer hard drives, credit and ATM cards, data storage media, mechanical

watches, hearing aids, and speakers.

•Keep magnets away from devices and objects that could be damaged by strong

magnetic fields.

•For the above mentioned objects, keep a minimum distance as described in the

"Pacemaker / implanted defibrillator" section.

•For non-anti-magnetic watches, keep the double minimum distance.

Installation Guide Linear Modules ENG

Combustibility

When machining magnets, the drilling dust could easily ignite.

Machining the sliders and the magnets they contain is not permitted.

Burn Hazard

During operation the slider can become hotter than 100 °C, which can cause burns if

touched. All necessary precautions (e.g. covers, casing, etc.) must be taken to prevent

contact with persons in the vicinity of the slider during operation.

Grounding

All metal parts that are exposed to contact during any user operation or servicing and likely

to become energized shall be reliably connected to the means for grounding.

Mechanical Handling

Neodymium magnets are brittle and heat-sensitive.

Machining the sliders and the magnets they contain is not permitted.

•Colliding magnets could crack. Sharp splinters could be catapulted for several meters

and cause eye injury.

•By machining the sliders, heat would result which demagnetizes the magnets.

2S Stators

Series 2S stators correspond mechanically to the respective standard stators and are to be

handled in exactly the same way in terms of assembly.

For special features, please refer to the safety manual (Item-No. 0185-1174).

Slider

Linear motor sliders consist of a high-precision, thin-walled stainless steel tube in which the

neodymium magnets are housed. The LinMot sliders should be handled with care.

Avoid contact with other sliders or iron parts as this can damage the magnets and the slider

surface. Do not grip the sliders with pliers, as this can also damage the surface. Do not use

sliders which are already damaged on the surface (scratches, deformation, etc.). This can

cause further damage to the stator.

Effects on People

According to the current level of knowledge, magnetic fields of permanent magnets do not

have a measurable positive or negative effect on people. It is unlikely that permanent

magnets constitute a health risk, but it cannot be ruled out entirely.

•For your own safety, avoid constant contact with magnets.

•Store large magnets at least one meter away from your body.

Temperature Resistance

Keep slider away from unshielded flame or heat.

Temperature above 120°C will cause demagnetization.

3.2 EM01 Linear Module

LinMot EM01 linear modules are moving stator applications with tubular linear motors for use in industrial

and commercial installations. The mechanical design is based on a special aluminium profile on which up to

two high-precision profile rail guides are attached. Use of ball bearings in the carriages guarantee a reliable

and smooth operation, support of external forces, torques and bending moments. These products offer high

guidance accuracy, facilitate dynamic and precise positioning of load. EM01 modules can be mounted

together into a gantry or semi gantry designs without any additional adapters. It is also possible to run

multiple stators on the same guide. Direct mechanical compatibility with other LinMot linear modules for the

vertical axis, linear rotary motors and other products, combined with the wide range of stroke availabilities for

all axes, the moving stator guides offer a powerful toolbox for any automation task.

3.3 Option External Sensor

Next to the LinMot linear stator’s own integrated position sensors, both incremental and absolute external

encoders are available as an option for the E01 Guides. Together with a magnetic band, the external

sensors provide a high-resolution linear measurement system.

3.4 Technical Data Carriage Kits

The values for mass and friction are important for the configuration assistant of the LinMot-Talk software.

4 Installation Instructions

4.1 Installation Options

There are several options available for mounting the EM01 Linear Modules.

The end plates are equipped with fits for parallel pins, bores and counterbores. Parallel pins may only be used

to align the Guide and are not intended for mounting. Mounting is done by using bores or counterbores.

Additional brackets or adapters shown in examples may be required. These must be provided by the customer.

Following rules apply for installation:

•EM-Module profile should be pressed to the reference surface to get the best accuracy and alignment.

•EM-Module profile is equipped with T-Slots on the bottom and back side through its entire length. These

can be used to mount the guide. Depending on the length of a guide and application, a sufficient amount

of T-Nuts must be used.

•Installation “on the back” is allowed only for lengths up to 1200 mm.

The following sketches show examples of different installation options. The detailed dimensions can be found

in the "Dimensions" chapter.

4.1.1 Installation Examples

Example 1: Installation with “slider on the top” using end plates and brackets.

Example 2: Installation with “slider on the top” using T-Nuts from the bottom of the profile.

Example 3: Installation “on the back” using end plates (lengths up to 1200 mm).

4.2 Installation of the Load

The mounting plate of the EM01 linear module is used for installation of the load. The mounting plate is

equipped with multiple bores and fittings for parallel pins. The centre of gravity of the load mass should be

centred and as close as possible to the mounting plate to ensure even distribution of the mass between

carriages.

For example, 24 x M6 thru bores indexes with “0” that can be used for installation of the load. You can find

complete dimensions in the dimensions chapter.

Before performing installation of the load, all necessary precautions must be taken to prevent

operation of this device, e. g. the device must be disconnected from the power supply.
