Indoor use only 1.2. Accuracy and Temperature Effects Aerotech products are designed for and built in a 20°C (68°F) environment. Extreme temperature changes could cause a decrease in performance or permanent damage to the ADRT. At a minimum, the environmental temperature must be controlled to within 0.25ºC per 24 hours to ensure the ADRT specifications are repeatable over an extended period of time.

Shimming should be avoided if possible. If shimming is required, it should be minimized to improve the rigidity of the system. ADRT series stages have a fixed mounting pattern (as shown in Figure 2-8).
N O T E : If your ADRT was purchased with Aerotech controls, it might have been tuned with a representative payload based on the information provided at the time of order. If the ADRT is started up without a payload, the servo gains provided by Aerotech with the shipment may not be appropriate and servo instability can occur.
If cantilevered loads are applied, refer to Figure 2-9 to find the loading condition. Refer to Figure 2-10 through Figure 2-13 to find the maximum allowable load. Figure 2-9: Load Orientations Figure 2-10: ADRT100 Cantilevered Load Capability Chapter 2 www.aerotech.com...

Electrical installation requirements will vary depending on product options. Installation instructions in this section are for ADRT stages equipped with standard Aerotech motors intended for use with an Aerotech motion control system. Contact Aerotech for further information regarding products that are otherwise configured.
Stages equipped with standard motors and encoders come from the factory completely wired and assembled. N O T E : Refer to the other documentation accompanying your Aerotech equipment. Call your Aerotech representative if there are any questions on system configuration.
