8 Maintenance and care
The clamping systems for workpiece direct clamping VERO-S WDM-5X
are designed for low-maintenance operation, meaning it is only
necessary to open and disassemble the clamping systems and
clamping modules under exceptional circumstances.
If it is necessary to disassemble the quick-change pallet system, this
may only be performed by trained specialist personnel.
• Clean all the parts thoroughly and check for damage and wear.
Damaged and worn parts must be replaced.
• Grease the sliding surfaces of all the other movable components
with Renolit HLT 2.
Replace damaged parts with original SCHUNK spare parts only.
A functional check must be conducted before commissioning.
General operating conditions
• Make sure that the contact surfaces of the interface are always
clean.
• Always ensure that no chips of any kind enter the interface of the
change components.
• Only use high-quality cooling emulsions with anti-corrosive additives
during processing.
• Check the clamping systems at regular intervals (at least every two
weeks or after 100 clamping operations). Perfect operation is
achieved whenever the clamping slides move smoothly without
increased application of force when actuated by means of the
clamping screw.
• Carry out regular visual / functional checks. In case of visible
damage or signs of malfunction on the clamping systems, shut it
down immediately. The system may only be commissioned again
once the faults have been removed. For example, by replacing the
damaged units.
