Page 28: Piping
Note) ・Although the rotating angle of external absorber type can be made smaller by screwing in a shock absorber, do not make it smaller than the minimum rotating angle of 84° (90° specification) and 174° (180° specification). This will increase the deflection angle on the working face of the shock absorber’s piston rod and arm, causing damage to the shock absorber. -
Page 29: Setting Of Rotation Time
Setting of rotation time Even if the torque that is required by the load in the rotation movement is small, the internal parts could become damaged depending on the inertia of the load. Therefore, select an appropriate model for your application by taking the load’s moment of inertia, kinetic energy, and rotation time into consideration. -
