  • Page 6: Safety Directives

    2. Safety directives We have taken great care in design and manufacture of our linear feeder in order to ensure smooth and safe opera- tion. You, too, can make an important contribution towards safety at work. We therefore ask you to read the brief op- erating instructions completely prior to commissioning the system.
  • Page 7: Applicable Directives And Standards

    Attention The linear feeder must be installed, put into operation and maintained by professional personnel only. Ob- serve the legally binding provisions for the qualifications of qualified electrical workers and instructed workers as defined by standards IEC 364 and DIN VDE 0105, part 1. Caution: Electromagnetic field Magnetic fields may affect a cardiac pacemaker.

  • Page 10: Tuning

    5.1. Tuning The following graph shows the resonance curve of a linear feeder. This information is fundamental for understanding the workings of a vibration system which is essentially made up of the vibrating masses, of a spring constant, and of the resulting resonance frequency.

    5.2. Changing the spring configuration Remove the 4 upper lateral spring fastening screws 'D' (M12 x 25 DIN 912). Then disconnect grounding between vi- bratory unit and counter mass. Now you can lift out the complete vibratory unit, with feed rail attached. Remove the desired spring pack by loosening the lower lateral spring fastening screws ‘D’...
  • Page 13: Adjusting The Desired Feeding Behaviour / Synchronism Of The Linear Feed Rail

    5.3. Adjusting the desired feeding behaviour / synchronism of the linear feed rail For a linear feed rail to operate smoothly and in synchronism, the spring angle must be set to be identical to the cen- tre-of-gravity angle. The centre-of-gravity angle is determined by the locations of the centres of gravity of the vibrating mass and of the counter mass.
  • Page 14: Spring Angle Adjustment

    5.4. Spring angle adjustment Fix the vibratory unit relative to the counter mass using Ø 8mm pins (see section 5.2 ‘Changing the spring set’). You can then loosen the four lateral spring fastening screws 'C' so that you can swing the spring pack to the desired spring angle.
  • Page 15: Maintenance

    7. Maintenance Linear feeders basically require no maintenance. They should be cleaned when soiled or after coming into contact with liquids. • Before starting such work be sure to pull the mains plug. • Clean the inside of the linear feeder (dismount components as necessary), and in particular the air gap be- tween coil and armature.
  • Page 16 If it is impossible to set-up the feed rail properly by following the above procedures and if lateral oscillation occurs or 'dead spots' are found in certain areas, then the stiffness of the rail is insufficient. The abutment joints move relative to one another or non-symmetric rail sections lead to non-uniform running behaviour.
