According to relevant data, in many manufacturers using automated production lines, few people remember to clean up the linear modules as parts of automated equipment. They may notice that the equipment should be cleaned only when there is a problem or it is too serious to use. Of course, we also have many mechanical equipment products that do not need to be cleaned, but linear modules are very different as high-precision transmission parts. Since the high precision and speed of this product are really our main requirements, not paying attention to equipment cleaning and maintenance will definitely affect the life of the equipment, and then affect the positioning accuracy of the linear module. Linear module manufacturers tell you why you need to organize modules and how to organize them.
As a high-precision automatic transmission accessory, the linear modules generally used are mostly ball screw modules. This linear stage module uses ball screws and linear guides. Generally, after a period of use, it needs to be smooth for positioning. The circulation of accuracy and operating speed, especially when the production environment is not good, the semi-closed ball screw module is very easy to enter the flying dust and debris. Do not pay attention to the daily cleaning and cleaning, which will definitely affect the future use. Of course, some people think that the cleaning of the linear slide module is very simple, as long as the cleaning agent is used to scrub it, in fact, it can only be half right. The cleaning process is indeed simple, but not simple. We need to pay attention to the cleaning details of precision equipment in many places. It is very important to clean the linear module correctly. The general cleaning process is divided into external cleaning and internal cleaning:
First, let's talk about cleaning the outside of the linear stage:
On a clean operating table, clean the entire equipment. Use a soft cloth to moisten a little neutral detergent or alcohol, and gently scrub the appearance of the equipment. It is advisable to wear white gloves and use disposable cleaning materials. The frequency of external cleaning can be higher, and the external cleaning should be done once a week.
Inside the linear module
Linear module organization can't just do external work, the internal organization of the module is more important. The internal care of the linear module is mainly the maintenance of the guide rail and the lead screw. Because the guide rail and the lead screw directly determine the transmission speed and accuracy of the module, it is the most expensive mechanical part that can be replaced in the equipment. Useful maintenance not only guarantees the accuracy and speed of the equipment, but also extends the service life of the equipment. When the operating environment is relatively harsh, the cleaning and smoothing times should be appropriately added.
Cleaning the interior of the linear stage: Use tools to remove the upper cover of the linear module and place it lightly next to it. The internal finishing is mainly for the guide rail and the ball screw. These two directly determine the transmission speed and accuracy of the linear stage, which are key components. Since there is generally grease maintenance, there will be very little after long-term use, so after finishing the appearance, carry out the maintenance of the smooth oil.
Finally remind us: pay attention to the daily cleaning and maintenance of the linear module can greatly extend the service life of the equipment, when the operating environment is relatively poor, the cleaning and smoothing times of the linear stage can be appropriately added.
As an automation component that completes linear repetitive motion, it is necessary to consider the problem of load, which closely affects the selection and application of linear slides. To complete high-precision linear reciprocating motion and improve efficiency, we must have a detailed understanding of load-related work. The linear slide manufacturer introduces several things about the load.
Proper linear slide ball screw load can effectively complete high-precision repeated positioning operations. While improving the actual operation efficiency, it can also greatly reduce the faults caused by improper operation. In general environment, the time and division of multi-axis combined use of modules, the load carried by each module slide is very different, how to sensitively configure the type and orientation of the module is very important, and it is important to whether our needs can be completed well.
Linear slide modules generally use aluminum alloy profiles as the base shell. It has sufficient rigidity and simple and generous appearance. It can be used in single-axis or xyz multi-axis combinations. The structure is simple, easy to install, and more sensitive in program design. It can be adapted to various needs in various environments. We generally understand the load torque of the linear stage when designing the scheme. The torque capacity of different specifications and types of modules in different directions is different, so we should try our best to keep it within the permitted range.
Which aspects will affect the load of the linear stage module? Mainly include the rated power of the motor, the instantaneous speed of the load, and the load limit of the module body. The load limit of the linear stage body should be understood here. The application method is different, and the load of the linear stage is different. The limit is also different, so when selecting a module, it must be provided to the module manufacturer’s own total load required.
There are not many linear slide load problems, but in actual use, there are many problems that need attention in the design of the plan. For example, the load capacity of the module will be greatly reduced when the module is used in a straight combination. Then choose the linear slide module at this time. It is necessary to select a module with sufficient load limit according to the customer's needs.
