Page 11: Motor-Related Warnings
Hardware Manual AMG-LP Motor-Related Warnings Aerotech motors are capable of producing high forces and velocities. Obey all warnings and all applicable codes and standards when you use or operate a stage or system that incorporates Aerotech motors. DANGER: Mechanical Hazard! Personnel must be made aware of the mechanical hazards during set up or when you do service to the stage. -
Page 12: Pinch Points
AMG-LP Hardware Manual Pinch Points A pinch point is a mechanical hazard that can occur when there are exposed parts of the stage or system that can move. For example, the travel of a stage tabletop could expose the user to a pinch point between the tabletop and the stage housing. -
Page 13: Handling And Storage
Ensure that the antistatic material is not damaged during unpacking. DANGER: Lifting Hazard! Use care when you move the AMG-LP or you could negatively affect the performance of it. Use the correct lifting techniques, mechanical assistance, or additional help to lift or move this product. -
Page 14: Figure 1-1: Shipping Brackets
Before you operate the stage, let it stabilize at room temperature for at least 12 hours. This will ensure that all of the alignments, preloads, and tolerances are the same as they were when they were tested at Aerotech. Each stage has a label listing the system part number and serial number. These numbers contain information necessary for maintenance or system hardware and software updates. -

Page 26: Attaching The Payload To The Stage
If you start the AMG-LP without a payload, the servo gains provided by Aerotech with the shipment may not be appropriate and servo instability can occur. Refer to the controller help file for tuning assistance. -
Page 27: Chapter 3: Electrical Installation
Aerotech motion control systems are adjusted at the factory for optimum performance. When the AMG-LP is part of a complete Aerotech motion control system, setup should only require that you connect the gimbal to the appropriate drive chassis with the cables provided. Labels on the system components should indicate the appropriate connections. -
Page 28: Motor And Feedback Connectors
IMPORTANT: If you are using standard Aerotech motors and cables, motor and encoder connection adjustments are not required. The protective ground connection of the AMG-LP provides motor frame ground protection only. Additional grounding and safety precautions are required for applications requiring access to the stage while it is energized. -
