Handling Precautions
1. Do not set speeds and accelerations/decelerations exceeding the respective ratings.
Do not set speeds and accelerations/decelerations exceeding the respective ratings. It may lead to
vibration, failure, or shorter life.
2. Keep the inertial moment, load moment and thrust load within their respective
allowable values.
Keep the inertial moment, load moment and thrust load within their respective allowable values. If a load is
applied that generates an inertial moment, load moment or thrust load exceeding its allowable value, the
life of the actuator may become shorter.
3. Do not operate the hollow rotary actuator repeatedly within a small range, as it may
cause grease to shift to and remain in certain areas.
If the hollow rotary actuator is operated repeatedly within a small range, grease may shift to and remain in
certain areas and a uniform coating of all areas will be lost. As a result, grease lubrication problems may
occur.
4. Do not let foreign matters enter between the output shaft (rotating part) and cylinder
(mounted part) of the hollow rotary actuator.
There is a gap of 1 mm between the output shaft (rotating part) and cylinder (mounted part) (see the figure
below), so do not let foreign matters, etc., enter this space. It may cause the actuator to fail.
5. Do not let the cylinder of the hollow rotary actuator receive a large load.
The cylinder is made of a thin-walled pipe.
So that the cylinder will not receive a large load, design a tool to be installed on the output shaft or take
other appropriate measure.
