Re-Commissioning After A Standstill; Operation; Notes Regarding Operation; Wear - Bosch rexroth EL 2 Assembly Instructions Manual

8.3 Re-commissioning after a standstill

Follow the steps outlined for the initial start-up.

Check whether the transport securing device has been installed and needs to
be removed.

9 Operation

Hot electric motor and braking resistance surfaces during operation!
Risk of burns from touching hot surfaces above 65 °C.

Install appropriate separating safety guards.

Let the unit cool down at least 30 minutes before performing maintenance
and/or repair tasks.

9.1 Notes regarding operation

9.1.1

Wear

• Individual components are subject to unavoidable wear by their very nature.
Constructive measures and the selection of materials help ensure functional
reliability over the full service life. However, wear is also dependent on the operating,
maintenance and ambient conditions at the place of use (resistance, contamination).
• Overloading the conveyor sections can cause the conveyor medium to malfunction
and lead to the premature breakdown of motors and gears.
• If pneumatically activated components are overloaded, it is not possible to guarantee
their function.
9.1.2

Measures to reduce wear

The following commonsense measures will reduce wear:
• Switch off the conveyor section when the system is not in use, e.g., during breaks,
at night and at weekends.
• Do not select a higher speed for the conveyor section than that required for the
corresponding function.
• Particularly important: avoid contamination caused by abrasive media, reduce
contamination by cleaning on a regular basis.
9.1.3

Loading the workpiece pallet

The modular units are designed and tested under the assumption that the workpiece
pallets will not all have the same weight during one cycle on one conveyor section.
Workpiece pallets are both loaded and unloaded.
Signifi cantly different weights may require special measures to avoid malfunctions.
This applies to:
• the permitted accumulation length before stop gates.
• damper functionality.
• dampened stop gates.
