The air motor is warranted for a period of 2000 hours or one year of operation from date of delivery from the production facility, whichever occurs first. Parts touching the work piece and wear parts are not part of the warranty. 02.01|FDB 150, 300, 340, 660, 900, 1040 |en...
The rout- ing of pneumatic lines must minimize the possibility of stress/strain, kinking, rupture, etc. Failure of critical pneumatic lines to function properly may result in equipment damage. 02.01|FDB 150, 300, 340, 660, 900, 1040 |en...
• Always use burrs rated for at least the speed of the FDB being used. WARNING Use of spare parts not supplied by SCHUNK can damage equip- ment and void the warranty. • Do not use spare parts other than original SCHUNK spare parts.

The air turbine will attempt to maintain its full rated speed even under loaded conditions. However, when extremely heavy cuts are taken the motor may eventually stall. Therefore, multiple light passes are preferred over slow, heavy cuts. 02.01|FDB 150, 300, 340, 660, 900, 1040 |en...
Mounting The FDB is capable of rear (axial) or side (radial) mounting. SCHUNK offers a blank rear interface plate kit for rear mounting and a simple foot bracket for bench mounting. NOTICE When using the side mounting pattern, the mounting screws must not exceed maximum depth from the mounting surface into the housing.
FDB to be permanently attached to a bench or other work surface . If the FDB is permanently mounted to a work surface, the robot carries the part to be deburred to the FDB. 02.01|FDB 150, 300, 340, 660, 900, 1040 |en...

Poor performance will result if the correct components are not used. Conventional, customer-supplied, pneumatic components are used to control the air supply to the deburring tool. SCHUNK recommends that the user install a high-flow pneumatic pressure regulator and a high-flow valve to properly supply a stable air supply to the spindle motor (...

13)). The compliance force, air supply pressure regulator should have a (FDB 150: 1.4 - 4.2 bar / FDB 300-1040: 0-4.1 bar) range. When testing for the proper contact force, start with a very low pressure and increase slowly until the desired cut is achieved.
For long-term storage, the FDB should be thoroughly cleaned of any burrs or debris. It should not be disassembled. Place the FDB inside a sealed plastic bag and place the FDB inside the crate. 02.01|FDB 150, 300, 340, 660, 900, 1040 |en...
When replacing burrs, always be sure to attach the burr correctly. Please consult ( 8.3, Page 38) DANGER • Never use the FDB in a manner to produce axial loads. • Never use the FDB for countersinking or drilling. 02.01|FDB 150, 300, 340, 660, 900, 1040 |en...
If it is determined that liq- uid coolants are required, a non-oil, cutting type should be used to prevent premature wear of the spindle bearing. Burr selection is discussed in ( 6.5.1, Page 29). 02.01|FDB 150, 300, 340, 660, 900, 1040 |en...
The diameter of the cutter should not ex- ceed that of the dowel pin by more than the compliance range of the FDB. 02.01|FDB 150, 300, 340, 660, 900, 1040 |en...

FDB will be higher for plastics to minimize this behavior. This results in larger cuts, which more ef- fectively remove heat from the cutter-tool interface. 02.01|FDB 150, 300, 340, 660, 900, 1040 |en...
• DO NOT use long or extended shank burrs with the FDB. • Use standard length commercial burrs with the FDB. SCHUNK can provide guidance in burr selection, however, only ex- perimentation will yield the results desired. The following table is presented to assist in burr selection.

Maintenance Maintenance The user is encouraged to return the unit to SCHUNK for mainte- nance. ( 7, Page 33) is provided to assist the user when they choose to maintenance the FDB in the field. For all maintenance, it is recommended that the air supply (before the solenoid valves) be disconnected.
The air filters should be checked and replaced as required to maintain optimum performance. The life of the filter elements is dependent on the quality of compressed air at the customer’s facility and therefore cannot be estimated. 02.01|FDB 150, 300, 340, 660, 900, 1040 |en...
The burr will wear depending on cut depth, feed rate and material being deburred. Inspect the burr regularly for wear and refer to ( 7, Page 33) for symptoms of worn burr. 02.01|FDB 150, 300, 340, 660, 900, 1040 |en...
