Page 11: Motor-Related Warnings
Hardware Manual PRO115LM Motor-Related Warnings Aerotech motors are capable of producing high forces and velocities. Obey all warnings and all applicable codes and standards when you operate a 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
PRO115LM 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: Magnetic Hazards
Hardware Manual PRO115LM Magnetic Hazards The magnet track will be exposed when you do maintenance to the system. DANGER: Magnetic Field Hazard! Only qualified, trained personnel should be allowed to have access to exposed mag- net tracks during setup or when you do maintenance. -
Page 14: Handling And Storage
Ensure that the antistatic material is not damaged during unpacking. DANGER: Lifting Hazard! Use care when you move the PRO115LM 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 15: Storage
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 16 PRO115LM Hardware Manual This page intentionally left blank. www.aerotech.com...

Altitude Operating: 0 m to 2,000 m (0 ft to 6,562 ft) above sea level Contact Aerotech if your specific application involves use above 2,000 m or below sea level. Vibration Use the system in a low vibration environment. Floor or acoustical vibration can affect system performance. -
Page 20: Accuracy And Temperature Effects
Hardware Manual 1.2. Accuracy and Temperature Effects Aerotech products are designed for and built in a 20°C (68°F) environment. Temperature changes could cause a decrease in performance or permanent damage to the stage. At a minimum, the environmental temperature must be controlled to within 0.25ºC per 24 hours to ensure the stage specifications are repeatable over an extended period of time. -

Hardware Manual PRO115LM 2.2. Securing the Stage to the Mounting Surface DANGER: Mechanical Hazard! Personnel must be made aware of the mechanical hazards during set up or when you do service to the stage. Do not manually move the stage if it is connected to a power source. -
Page 28: Attaching The Payload To The Stage
If you start the PRO115LM 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 29: Figure 2-3: Stage Orientations
Hardware Manual PRO115LM For a cantilevered load, first determine if it is a Horizontal or a Side cantilever system (refer to Figure 2-3). The Horizontal curve assumes a horizontal stage orientation with the payload offset extending outwards along the surface of the tabletop. -
Page 30: Speed Capability
To help ensure safety and prevent damage to the system, speed limitations are required for the PRO115LM. Achievable speeds are application-dependent and determined by factors such as travel length, payload, amplifier sizing and duty cycle. The Motor Sizer application supplied by Aerotech at https://www.aerotech.com/resources/motor-sizer.aspx can be used to estimate allowable speeds and accelerations based on these parameters. -
Page 31: Chapter 3: Electrical Installation
Aerotech motion control systems are adjusted at the factory for optimum performance. When the PRO115LM is part of a complete Aerotech motion control system, setup should only require that you connect the stage to the appropriate drive chassis with the cables provided. Labels on the system components should indicate the appropriate connections. -
Page 32: 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 PRO115LM provides motor frame ground protection only. Additional grounding and safety precautions are required for applications requiring access to the stage while it is energized. -
