ASR1300 Hardware Manual Installation and Operation To decrease the risk of damage to the equipment, you must obey the precautions that follow. DANGER: General Hazard Warning! This product can produce high forces and move at velocities that could cause injury. The user is responsible for its safe operation.
Page 11
It is the responsibility of the End User/System Integrator to make sure that stages are properly connected and grounded per Engineering Standards and applicable safety requirements. It is the responsibility of the End User/System Integrator to configure the system drive or controller within the Aerotech motor/stage electrical and mechanical specifications. www.aerotech.com...

ASR1300 Hardware Manual 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 13
Hardware Manual ASR1300 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 14
ASR1300 Hardware Manual Handling and Storage IMPORTANT: It is the responsibility of the customer to safely and carefully lift and move the stage. Be careful when you move or transport the stage. Retain the shipping materials for future use. Transport or store the stage in its protective packaging.
Page 15
Hardware Manual ASR1300 Gently set the stage on a smooth, flat, and clean surface. Use compressed nitrogen or clean, dry, oil-free air to remove any dust or debris that has collected during shipping. 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.

Indoor use only 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 0.25 ºC per 24 hours to ensure the stage specifications are...
Page 19
ASR1300. (6) The ASR1300 contains a collet chuck mechanism that is normally-open. Collet mechanism requires air to close collet chuck. Air supply must be dry (0°F dew point), oil-less air or 99.99% pure nitrogen. Air or nitrogen must be filtered to 1 micron particle size or better.
Page 20
5.5-7 bar (80-100 psig). Lower pressures, greater than 4 bar (60 psi), can be used but would be application specific. Aerotech recommends using the minimum pressure required for the application that securely clamps the work piece. Lower pressures reduce the possibility of workpiece damage, and ensure the highest system performance.
Page 21
6. To reduce outgassing during the initial pump-down to vacuum pressure, Aerotech recommends that you bake out vacuum systems when you first install them into the vacuum chamber. Bake the vacuum components at 60 °C for 24 to 48 hours to desorb water vapor from surfaces and degas polymers (such...

Chapter 2: Installation The stage installation must be in accordance with the instructions provided by this manual and any accompanying documentation. Failure to follow these instructions could result in injury or damage to the equipment. 2.1. Dimensions Figure 2-1: ASR1300 Dimensions www.aerotech.com...
Page 24
All Frame Sizes 1 µm per 50 mm ASR1300 series stages have a fixed mounting pattern available to secure the stage to a mounting surface. Figure 2-2 shows the main mounting holes in the base of the stage. Tightening torque values for the mounting hardware are dependent on the properties of the surface to which the stage is being mounted.
Page 26
In worst-case scenarios, the collet could be damaged and have to be replaced. 2.4. Load Capability The ASR1300 is designed for tubular manufacturing applications. With this in mind, the tubes loaded into the collet chuck of the rotary axis must fall within the maximum load parameters in Section 1.3.
Page 27
ASR1300 2.5. Changing the Workholding Devices ASR1300 stages are designed to use Levin D-style collets. Levin Type D precision collets must be used to guarantee the collet runout specifications. Levin Type D Collets are available from Aerotech in many sizes for different material diameters and can be interchanged.
Page 28
ASR1300 Hardware Manual 2.5.1. Collet Change Procedure DANGER: Electrical Shock Hazard! Do not connect or disconnect stage/motor interconnections while connected to a live elec- trical power source. Before you set up or do maintenance, disconnect electrical power. DANGER: Pinch Hazard! Air pressure must be disconnected from the stage when the collet is being installed or removed.

ASR1300 Hardware Manual 2.6. Motor Cooling with the Motor Plate The [Qty-2] compression fittings located on both sides of the housing are design for 4 mm O.D. “stiff wall” tube. Stainless steel barb inserts are included with each stage for a 2 mm I.D. tube.
Page 31
Aerotech motion control systems are adjusted at the factory for optimum performance. When the ASR1300 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
IMPORTANT: If you are using standard Aerotech motors and cables, motor and encoder connection adjustments are not required. The protective ground connection of the ASR1300 provides motor frame ground protection only. Additional grounding and safety precautions are required for applications requiring access to the stage while it is energized.

DANGER: Pinch Hazard! Air pressure must be disconnected from the stage when the collet is being installed or removed. The ASR1300 series stages are designed to require minimum maintenance. There are some items that may require preventative maintenance during the lifetime of the stage. This chapter will cover information about component maintenance and replacement, intervals between lubrication, detail the lubrication and inspection process, and specify recommended lubricants and cleaning solvents.
Page 42
The inspection and cleaning interval depends on application conditions such as duty cycle, speed, and environment. You should frequently inspect and clean the ASR1300 series stage until a trend develops for the application. As part of the inspection process, the stage, cables, collet/collet chuck, and seals should be examined for wear, damage, and excessive air or water leakage.
Page 43
4. We recommend that you do not disassemble the stage beyond the instructions given in this manual. Proper assembly and calibration can only be done at the factory. Contact Aerotech for more information. Any metal surface on the stage can be cleaned with either acetone or isopropyl alcohol. Cleaning solvents, especially acetone, should not be used on any rubber components (o-rings and seals).
Page 44
If the wear marks are large, or excessive polishing is required to remove these marks, the collet chuck and collet may need to be replaced. Contact Aerotech Technical Support for more information. Wear and fretting can be prevented with proper lubrication and maintenance intervals.

Page 47
Aerotech recommends that you return the unit to the factory to be serviced by a qualified technician. The collet chuck and actuation mechanism on the ASR1300 series stages are equipped with o-ring seals that are designed to last many collet chuck (open/close) cycles. However, due to regular wear, the seals may require replacement during the lifetime of the product.
