High Inertia Payloads

The following guidelines are provided when using loads with a high inertia that are mounted
on the puck. High inertia loads typically have a large off-center mass, have a high center of
gravity, or exceed the payload envelopes that are shown in
Figure 3-33, and
(see Rockwell Automation Support on page
the payload does not fit into the envelope shown in
Vehicle motion can become erratic due to the inertia of the vehicle and payload as it enters and
exits curves. The larger the inertia, the more erratic motion is through both curve motors and
the curve section of switches. This erratic behavior becomes worse as the mass or velocity is
increased. Use a high payload switch (shown in
some of the erratic motion when moving through a switch.
