    6.32 -3.68 Published accuracy and repeatability specifications are subject to the testing methodology. Parker’s methodology provides specifications over the entire table travel regardless of start or finish position. The accuracy and repeatability specifications are based on the peak to peak error measured by a la- ser interferometer and prism located at 38mm above the center of the table.

  • Page 26: Mounting Orientations

    LX80L Series Product Manual Mounting Orientations The LX80L can be mounted horizontal, inverted, or side. For all mounting orientations, the ca- bles should be secured as to not interfere with the movement of the carriage and bearings. For inverted, side, and vertical mounting, the main table cover must be used.
  • Page 27: Mounting Surface Requirements

    LX80L Series Product Manual Mounting Surface Requirements Proper mounting of the LX80L is essential to optimize product performance. All specifications are based on the following conditions: • The positioner must be bolted down using all mounting holes provided in the base. There are two different mounting surfaces for the LX80L, as seen below.
  • Page 28: Load Mounting Requrements

    Load Mounting Requirements Dowel holes are included in the top of the carriage of the LX80L for repeatable mounting of loads/fixturing. Use appropriate length bolt. The LX80L compact design requires proper sized bolts to be used when mounting payloads to the car- riage.
  • Page 29: Idler Rail Assembly

    LX80L Series Product Manual Idler Rail Assembly When using the LX80L in a gantry or “H” configu- ration, as shown, it is recommended that Y-Axis Parker’s Idler Rail Assembly is used. The Idler Rail Assembly has the same surface mounting requirements as the LX80L, see page #21 “Mounting Surface Requirements”.
  • Page 30 • Align the centerline of the Idler Rail Assembly with the centerline of the X- Axis LX80L, see page #10 for LX80L centerline dimension. • Offset the Idler Rail Assembly’s “Travel Centerline” from the X-Axis Travel Centerline.
  • Page 31: Limit And Home Sensor Operation

    Option Upgrades Limits and Homes can not be added to the LX80L table in the field due to the integrated design which encloses the sensor on a printed circuit board in the carriage. If the optical sensor limit and home are desired the unit must be returned to the factory on an RMA.
  • Page 32: Adjusting The Limit Triggers

    LX80L Series Product Manual See the following example for calculating maximum deceleration for an application with a payload = 0.25 kg on an LX80-T02, 8 - Pole motor, double rail table with a maximum speed of 500 mm/s. Total mass = 0.633 kg (Payload mass = 250 grams + Carriage mass (383 grams) = 633...
  • Page 33 LX80L Series Product Manual Step 4: Gently remove the existing Limit trigger decal with a razor blade or with your finger nail. Dispose of this decal, Do Not Reuse Decals, adhesive may not adhere properly if reused resulting in decal falling off and stage crashing into end stops.
  • Page 34: Setting Home Sensor

    The Z-channel is a unidirectional device. This means that the final homing direction must occur in one direction. The LX80L is set that the final home direction is to be toward the positive end of the table. The repeatability of the Z-channel is equal to the repeatability of the table.
  • Page 35: Cabling

    LX80L Series Product Manual Cabling The LX80L is provided with high flex cabling which is strain relieved at the connection point on the posi- tioner. • The Hall/Encoder cable is terminated with a high density 15 pin D-sub connector which is compatible with the ViX drive from Parker.
  • Page 36 LX80L Series Product Manual Step 3: Reverse the wires to come out the opposite direction. The cables must be in order from top to bottom based on the connector location on the circuit board, not all of the cables are the same diameter so they are to match the endblock cover/strain relief re- cesses.
  • Page 37: Internal Cable Replacement

    Due to the continuous motion of the internal cable system, it may be necessary to replace at some point during the positioner’s life. The internal cable assembly should provide a long service life, Parker has tested the internal cable assembly in excess of 20 million cycles. Follow the instructions and images to replace the internal cable assembly.
  • Page 38 LX80L Series Product Manual Step 7: Remove the cable assembly from the carriage by removing one (1) flat head screw from the cable carrier link that is attached to the carriage. It is necessary to lift the four (4) connectors to gain access to the flat head screw.
  • Page 39: Y-Axis Cable System

    LX80L Series Product Manual Y-Axis Cable System When using two LX80L positions in an X-Y configuration care must be taken with the cable management of the Y-axis extension cables. These cables will need to flex through the entire travel of the X-axis positioner.
  • Page 40 LX80L Series Product Manual Step 7: Connect the stationary end of the Y-Axis Cable System with two (2) socket head cap screws to the same mounting surface as the x-axis positioner. See drawing and instructions below for place- ment. Step 8: After the stationary end of the Y-Axis Cable System is se- cured to the mounting surface, move the x-axis positioner’s carriage...

  • Page 42: Acceleration Limits

    • Linear Bearings The linear bearings used in the LX80L have a continuous acceleration limit of 2 g’s. This means that the bearings are designed to take repetitive accelerations of 2 g’s and maintain the rated bearing life. Additionally, the bearings can take a periodic acceleration of up to 5 g’s, however continued accelerations of these magnitudes will reduce bearing life.
  • Page 43: Speed Limits

    Acceleration of linear servo driven tables is typically limited by three (3) factors: • Linear Bearings The linear bearings used in the LX80L are limited to a maximum speed of 3 meters/second. • Linear Encoder Limit The linear encoder has speed limits relative to encoder resolution; these limits are listed below:...
  • Page 44: Thermal Effects On Accuraccy

    Thermal Effects on Accuracy The LX80L uses a magnet linear servo motor. The magnet rails and the encoder tape are mounted to the base. The motor coils are mounted in the carriage and unless the payload is insulated, the heat generated in the coils should radiate out the payload maintaining a low thermal delta between base and carriage.
  • Page 45: Causes For Temperature Increases

    LX80L base). Motor heating from LX80L Since the LX80L uses a servo motor as its drive, it produces no heat unless there is motion, or a force being generated. In low duty cycle applications heat generation is low, however as duty cycles increase, temperature of the LX80L will increase, causing thermal expansion of the car- riage.
