Any reproduction, publication in whole or in part, modification or abridgement requires the written approval of HIWIN GmbH. 1.6 Product monitoring Please inform HIWIN, the manufacturer of the HIWIN distance measuring systems MAGIC and MAGIC-PG of: Accidents Potential sources of danger in the distance measuring systems MAGIC and MAGIC-PG...
Only original parts from HIWIN may be used as spare parts and accessories. Spare parts and accessories not supplied by HIWIN are not tested for operation with HIWIN MAGIC distance measuring systems and may compromise operational safety and reliability.
Assembly Instructions HIWIN MAGIC Distance Measuring System Basic safety notices NOTE The measuring scale of the magnetic distance measuring systems must not be subjected to any strong magnetic fields (keep it away from permanent magnets of linear motor axes!). Strong shocks (e.g. hammer blows) can also damage the magnetization of the measuring scale.
Product descriptions Product descriptions The magnetic distance measuring systems of the HIWIN MAGIC series are optimised for measuring the distances travelled in linear movements and particularly on linear motor axes. They are particularly suitable for use in harsh environmental condi- tions and are resistant to oil, dirt, vibrations and shocks.
Fig. 3.6 Cable with coupling (optional) 3.4 Reference switch The MAGIC encoder delivers index signals at a distance of 1 mm. For the definition of a reference point, a reference switch (“cam switch”) is required. For this purpose, HIWIN offers an inductive proximity switch (see Fig. 3.7).
HIWIN MAGIC Distance Measuring System Product descriptions 3.5 Scope of delivery Depending on customer requirements, the distance measuring systems MAGIC and MAGIC-PG are offered in different forms and with different scope. Individual components can be supplied to retrofit existing linear guideway systems.
This must be prevented by taking additional measures (e.g. additional clamping of the magnetic scale at the ends). HIWIN GmbH assumes no liability if a scale that was not secured by means of suitable measures should come loose from the rail.
It is advisable to use a feeler gauge to set the correct distance. Make sure that the minimum cable bending radius of 40 mm is not underrun. 4.2 Assembly of the HIWIN MAGIC-PG – HG and QH series 4.2.1 Assembly of the profile rails Fit the profile rails as described in the assembly instructions for the linear guideways.

Remove the end seal [3] by loosening the screws [7]. Adjust the distance between the cover strip [1] and the MAGIC-PG encoder [4] to 0.2 ±0.1 mm. It is recommended to use a feeler gauge to set the correct distance.

Do not disassemble the recirculation unit [7]! Assembly steps: On the side where the MAGIC-PG encoder [6] should be replaced, remove the end seal [5] by loosening the screws [4]. Remove the defective MAGIC-PG encoder [6] by loosening the screws [9].
In the case of fully assembled profile rails, the cover strip is delivered in the required length and with finished ends in accordance with Table 4.3. NOTE For removal of the cover strip we recommend the use of the mounting and removing tool from HIWIN. See Sec- tion 10.2 for information on the removing tool. NOTE By the installation of the cover strip, the magnetic tape underneath is secured and protected against dirt.

Loosen screws A [1] and B [5]. The encoder [2] can now be moved. Set the distance between the cover strip [4] and the MAGIC-PG encoder [2] to 0.2 ±0.1 mm. The use of a feeler gauge is recommended for adjustment.
Fix the new MAGIC-PG encoder [2] with the screws A [1] and B [5]. Tighten the screws only slightly. Set the distance between the cover strip [4] and the MAGIC-PG encoder [2] to 0.2 ±0.1 mm. The use of a feeler gauge is recommended for adjustment.
EMC requirements of EN 61000-4-4, test severity level 3. This covers immunity to electrical fast transients. For HIWIN linear motor axes, and in general for all highly dynamic applications we recommend our pre-assembled extension cables that are specifically designed for dynamic use in energy chains.
