Allowable load inertia moment To maximize the performance of the HMA series, make a tentative selection of a motor so that the max. rotational speed and allowable load inertia moment ratio are equal to or lower than the values shown in the table below.
Verifying and examining load weights Ensure that the load applied to the output shaft of the HMA series motor does not exceed the max. radial load and max. axial load when stationary and also that the load does not exceed the rated radial load and rated axial load at the rated rotational speed.
(mm) Linear travel speed [mm/min] Check that this rotational speed is less than the max. rotational speed of the HMA series motor. Calculating and examining load inertia moment Calculate the inertia moment of the load driven by an HMA series motor.
2-3 Examining the operating status Load torque calculation Calculate the load torque as follows: Rotary motion The rotary torque for rotating mass W on the ring of Mass: W radius r from the center of rotation is shown in the figure to the right.
2-3 Examining the operating status Acceleration time and deceleration time Calculate the acceleration and deceleration times for the motor tentatively selected using the following formula. × π × × × Acceleration time: − × π × × × Deceleration time: ×...
2-3 Examining the operating status Evaluating effective torque and average rotational speed One way to check if the heat generated from the motor during operation would present a problem is to determine if the point of operation, determined by the effective torque and average rotational speed, is inside the continuous motion range explained in [1-12Operable range].
Page 41
2-3 Examining the operating status (5) The figure on the right shows the points of operation determined by the effective torque and average rotational speed calculated above, plotted on the graph of operable range of HMAC08, exceeding the continuous motion range. The conclusion is that this motor cannot be operated continuously under these conditions.
