  • Page 358: Specifications And Limitations In Pressing Operation Of Rcs2-Ra13R

    10.5.2 Specifications and Limitations in Pressing Operation of RCS2-RA13R (Dedicated for SCON-CA) [1] Pressing Force and Current-Limiting Value Caution: • The relation between pressing force and current limit value is shown with reference values at the rating pressing speed (set at shipment).

  • Page 359: Limitation In Operation

    [2] Limitation in Operation Make sure to follow the three conditions stated below for the operation of this product. Condition 1. The pressing time is less than the specified time. Condition 2. 1 cycle of the continuous operation thrust is less than the rated thrust of Ultra-High Thrust Actuator.
  • Page 360 Figure out the continuous operation thrust F in 1 cycle using the following formula. The thrust necessary for rated speed movement and standby are not needed if it is the horizontally oriented installation. × t × t × t × t ×...

  • Page 363 2) Calculation of Continuous Operation Thrust Figure out the continuous operation thrust F by following the formula. First, check the operation pattern of t to find out that Arrival speed (Vmax) = 0.05 × 0.098 → 0.07m/s and, therefore it is greater than the set speed 62mm/s (0.06m/s), thus the pattern is the trapezoid type.
