Kinetix MPAI Heavy-duty Electric Cylinder (MPAI-A3150CM32A is shown)

About the Kinetix MPAI Heavy-duty Electric Cylinders

Kinetix MPAI electric cylinders feature multi-turn high-resolution encoders and are available with 24V DC brakes. The motor drives a ball-screw or roller-screw that converts rotary motion into linear movement. The linear motion extends or retracts the thrust rod within the electric cylinder housing.

IMPORTANT

The MPAI-A/Bxxxxxx2x electric cylinders are non-braking. When there is no input torque, the thrust rod can be moved freely. To achieve self- locking of your motion system, use an electric cylinder with an integrated brake (catalog number MPAI-A/Bxxxxxx4x).

The Kinetix MPAI electric cylinders have been designed for exact positioning at high speeds.

Before You Begin

Remove all packing materials from within and around the item. After unpacking, verify the nameplate catalog number against the purchase order.

1. Remove the polyethylene foam cushioning.

2. Remove the electric cylinder carefully from its shipping container. Consider the weight of the electric cylinder. Depending on the design, the electric cylinder can weigh up to 49 kg (108 lb).s

Do not rotate the thrust rod. Rotating the thrust rod causes the home position to be lost.

ATTENTION: Electric cylinders that exceed 23 kg (51 lb) require a two man lift. Do not lift the electric cylinder by the thrust rod.

ATTENTION: Do not rotate the thrust rod. Rotating the thrust rod causes the factory-set home position to be lost and requires the electric

cylinder to be homed before its initial use.

3. Visually inspect the electric cylinder for damage. Closely examine the mounting surface, frame, and thrust rod for defects.

4 Rockwell Automation Publication MPAI-IN001G-EN-P - March 2021

Page 5

Kinetix MPAI Heavy-duty Electric Cylinders Installation Instructions

4. Notify the carrier of shipping damage immediately.

ATTENTION: Do not attempt to open and modify the electric cylinder beyond changing motor connector orientation as described on page 10, or installing a rear clevis mount as described on page 8. Only a qualified Allen-Bradley® employee can service the internal working of the electric cylinder. Failure to observe these safety precautions could result in personal injury or damage to equipment.

Plan Your Installation

See the Kinetix Linear Motion Specifications Technical Data, publication KNX-TD002, for the specifications and additional products referenced in this section:

• This product can be operated in compliance with the relevant safety regulations, only if the maximum loading limits are observed.

ATTENTION: The electric cylinder is not intended to be used in applications where side-loading occurs. Loads must be guided and supported. Aligned load with the line-of-motion of the thrust rod. Side loading reduces the lifetime of the electric cylinder.

• If you are mounting your electric cylinder in a vertical or sloping position, include safety measures that control the work load, in case the spindle nut fail.

ATTENTION: Uncontrolled moving masses can cause injury or damage to property. If there is a spindle nut fracture inside the actuator cylinder due to wear, the working mass drops down. Check whether additional external safety measures are required to prevent damage in the event of a spindle nut fracture.

• Keep the rod from rotating when in use to achieve consistent linear motion. In most applications the connection to the load inherently provides anti-rotation. If your work load is free to rotate when the actuator is attached use the anti-rotate option, catalog MPAI-NEx02xx, to prevent rotation.

• Corrosive environments reduce the service life of electric cylinders.

• Where possible, install the electric cylinder with the grease fitting facing up. This reduces the chance of the residual grease falling or dripping on your application.

• Factory-manufactured feedback and power cables are available in standard cable lengths. They provide environmental sealing and shield termination. Contact your Allen-Bradley sales office or see the Kinetix Linear Motion Specifications Technical Data, publication KNX-TD002

, for additional information.

Prolong Electric Cylinder Life

Thoughtful design and proper maintenance can increase the life of an electric cylinder. Follow these guidelines to maximize the life of an electric cylinder especially within a food processing environment:

• Always provide a drip loop in each cable to carry liquids away from the connection to the motor.

• If design requirements permit, provide shields that protect the motor housing, thrust rod, seals, and their junctions from contamination by foreign matter or fluids.

• Replace the thrust rod seals at or before its expected lifetime of 12-months. See Replacement Parts and Maintenance Kits

• Inspect the seals for damage or wear on a regular basis. If damage or excessive wear is observed, replace the item.

on page 36 for catalog information on thrust rod seals.

Electric Cylinders with Brake Option

The brake option on this servo motor is a spring-set holding brake that releases when voltage is applied to the brake coil. A separate power source is required to disengage the brake. This power source can be applied by a servo motor controller or manual operator control.

If system main power fails, holding brakes can withstand occasional use as stopping brakes. However, this creates rotational mechanical backlash that is potentially damaging to the system, increases brake wear, and reduces brake life.

An electric cylinder (not under power) requires a holding brake to maintain its position if the force on the actuator exceeds the Back Drive Force listed in Kinetix Linear Motion Specifications Technical Data, publication KNX-TD002.

A brake can be used with the actuator to keep it from back driving, typically in vertical-load applications. A brake can be used for safety reasons or for energy savings allowing the actuator to hold position when not under power.

IMPORTANT

Holding brakes are not designed to stop rotation of the motor shaft, nor are they intended to be used as a safety device. They are designed to hold a motor shaft at 0 rpm for up to the rated brake holding torque.

The recommended method of preventing motor shaft rotation is a four-step process: first, command the servo drive to 0 rpm; second, verify the motor is at 0 rpm; third, engage the brake; and fourth, disable the drive.

Disabling the drive removes the potential for brake wear caused by a badly-tuned servo system oscillating the shaft.

Prevent Electrical Noise

Electromagnetic interference (EMI), commonly called electrical noise, can reduce motor performance. Effective techniques to counter EMI include filtering the AC power, by using shielded cables, separating signal cables from power wiring, and practicing good grounding techniques.

Follow these guidelines to avoid the effects of EMI:

• Isolate the power transformers or install line filters on all AC input power lines.

• Physically separate signal cables from motor cabling and power wiring. Do not route signal cables with motor and power wires, or over the vent openings of servo drives.

• Ground all equipment by using a single-point parallel ground system that employs ground bus bars or large straps. If necessary, use additional electrical noise reduction techniques to reduce EMI in noisy environments.

See System Design for Control of Electrical Noise Reference Manual, publication GMC-RM001

, for additional information on reducing the effects of EMI.

Build and Route Cables

Knowledgeable cable routing and careful cable construction improves system electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).

To build and install cables, perform these steps.

1. Keep wire lengths as short as physically possible.

2. Route signal cables (encoder or serial) away from motor and power wiring.

3. Separate cables by 0.3 m (1 ft) minimum for every 9 m (30 ft) of parallel run.

4. Ground both ends of the encoder cable shield and twist the signal wire pairs to prevent electromagnetic interference (EMI) from other equipment.

ATTENTION: High voltage can be present on the shield of a power cable, if the shield is not grounded. Make sure there is a connection to ground for any power cable shield. Failure to observe these safety precautions could result in personal injury or damage to equipment.

Install the Electric Cylinder

The installation must comply with all local regulations and use of equipment and installation practices that promote electromagnetic compatibility and safety.

ATTENTION: Unmounted electric cylinders, disconnected mechanical couplings, and disconnected cables are dangerous if power is applied. Appropriately identify (tag-out) disassembled equipment, and restrict (lock-out) access to electrical power. Failure to observe these safety precautions could result in personal injury.

Follow these steps to prepare the electric cylinder for installation on the machine.

1. Provide sufficient clearances in the area of the electric cylinder for it to stay within its specified operating temperature range. See Specifications

cooling. Keep other heat producing devices away from the electric cylinder.

2. Make sure the mounting surface supports the electric cylinder evenly so that it is free of mechanical stress and distortion.

• Evenness of the mounting surface must be within 0.127 mm (0.005 in.).

• The thrust rod must be parallel to the guide within 0.0254 mm (0.010 in.).

3. Attach mounting accessories to the electric cylinder. See Accessories

Mount the Electric Cylinder

Follow these steps to mount the electric cylinder on the machine.

1. Verify the mounting surface flatness. The mounting surface must be flat or shimmed flat to the mounting surface of the electric cylinder within 0.127 mm (0.005 in.) to avoid distortion and damage to the actuator housing.

2. Install and evenly tighten the steel fasteners so the electric cylinder is securely mounted on the machine before thrust rod alignment is performed.

3. Align the electric cylinder as shown in the diagram and described below. Align the thrust rod of the electric cylinder parallel to the load supporting bearing system in both flatness and straightness within these specifications:

• With thrust rod extended <

• With thrust rod retracted <

4. Torque the steel fasteners evenly to 39.5 N•m (350 lb•in), and then verify the thrust rod alignment remains within specifications.

0.254 mm (0.010 in.) parallel to the load guides.

0.127 mm (0.005 in.) parallel to the load guides.

ATTENTION: When installed, pinch points with high forces are created that have the potential for causing physical damage. The risk area surrounding the electric cylinder must be enclosed or clearly marked, including sinage in accordance with national and international requirements. The risk area must be protected by a safety system that stops the equipment if anyone enters the risk area. Personnel who enter the risk area must be authorized, trained, and qualified for any task performed inside the risk area.

Verify Connector O-ring and Back-shell Seal

An O-ring on the feedback connector, and a back-shell seal on the feedback and power/brake connectors are necessary to achieve the maximum environmental rating. Verify the seal and O-rings are installed as described.

Location Verify

• An O-ring is mounted on the external surface of the feedback connector and the power/brake connector.

• The O-ring is undamaged, not twisted, and rests in the groove near the rear of the connector.

• A back-shell seal covers the joint inside the feedback and power/brake housings. It seals the joint between the back-shell and the housing of the connector.

• The back-shell seal is undamaged, and it is fully seated against the face of the back-shell.

Attach Motor Cables

Use this procedure to attach the power and feedback cables after the electric cylinder is mounted.

1. Carefully align each cable connector with the respective motor connector as shown in the diagram.

ATTENTION: Keyed connectors must be properly aligned and hand-tightened the recommended number of turns. Improper connector alignment is indicated by the need for excessive force to seat connectors. For example, the need to use tools to fully seat connectors. Failure to observe these safety precautions could result in damage to equipment.

ATTENTION: When installing a threaded DIN cable with an M4 designation, an O-ring must be installed in the groove immediately adjacent to the body of the motor connector. This O-ring dampens the effects of vibration at the cable-to-motor connection. Cables requiring O-rings include 2090-XXNPMF-xxSxx or 2090-CPxM4DF-xxAFxx power cables, and 2090-CFBM4DF-CDAFxx feedback cable. Continuous flex cables with a SpeedTec DIN connector have an M7 designation.

2. Fully seat the feedback connector and the power/brake connector.

• Hand tighten the collar of a threaded (M4) connector five or six turns.

• Hand tighten the collar of a SpeedTec (M7) connector one-quarter turn.

ATTENTION: Make sure cables are installed and restrained to prevent uneven tension or flexing at the cable connectors. Excessive and uneven lateral force at the cable connectors can result in the connector’s environmental seal opening and closing as the cable flexes. Failure to observe these safety precautions could result in damage to the electric cylinder motor and its components.

3. Form a drip loop in the cable to keep liquids away from the connectors.

4. Verify the continuity and functionality of the thermal switch signals, TS+ and TS-. These signals are transmitted through the feedback cable that connects the motor to its controlling drive.

Change Connector Orientation

You can rotate the circular DIN connector housings up to 270° in either direction.

ATTENTION: For actuators with food grade white paint, consider rerouting cables instead of rotating the connectors. Rotation of the connectors interrupts continuity of the white paint across the rotation joint. This can allow foreign material in and start corrosion. If you must rotate the connectors, consider applying food grade RTV to the joint to assist in corrosion protection.

ATTENTION: You can rotate the connectors into a fixed position during installation of the electric cylinder and remain in that position without further adjustment. Strictly limit the applied forces and the number of times the connector is rotated to be sure that connectors meet the requirements of IP67 for the motor portion of the electric cylinder. Failure to observe these safety precautions could result in damage to the motor and its components.

Follow these steps to rotate the DIN connectors.

1. Mount and fully seat a mating cable on the connector.

2. Grasp the connector and the cable plug by their housings and slowly rotate them to the outside of the motor. If necessary, repeat these steps for the other connector (feedback or power/brake).

ATTENTION: Only apply force to the connectors; do not apply force to the cable. Do not use tools (for example, pliers and vise-grips) to assist with the rotation of the connector. Failure to observe these safety precautions could result in personal injury or damage to equipment.

ATTENTION: Avoid excessive force while homing the electric cylinder. Do not exceed 10 mm/s (0.4 in/s) during a home routine. Speeds greater than 10 mm/s (0.4 in/s) can damage the electric cylinder when the thrust rod reaches the end of travel.

4. Complete these steps for absolute homing. a. Use motion direct commands to slowly jog your axis to the home location for your application, being sure to not exceed 10 mm/s (0.4 in/s). b. Issue the Motion Direct Command (MAH) to set the home position on your axis.

5. Click the Limits tab.

software to determine the maximum stopping distance in your application to set negative and

7. Set overtravel limits according to the maximum speed of the servo drive system and the payload of the application.

IMPORTANT

Set travel limits and direction of tuning moves in reference to thrust rod starting position. Leave adequate travel for the thrust rod to complete its moves while tuning.

ATTENTION: Software overtravel must be set before initiating the tuning process. Check the starting position of the thrust rod and allow for adequate travel. Insufficient travel while auto tuning causes the software overtravel to trigger an end-stop impact.

ATTENTION: Take care not to exceed the physical travel limits of the electric cylinder. Doing so causes the electric cylinder to reach the mechanical end-of-stroke. Although protected by the end-of-stroke bumpers, frequently impacting the internal end-of-stroke bumper can physically damage the screw and internal components of the electric cylinder.

You can determine the deceleration distance before the thrust rod contacts the end of travel based on the deceleration rate of the load, and the peak force available from the motor/screw combination. Use Motion Analyzer

software to calculate the minimum deceleration distance at the maximum speed of your

application.

IMPORTANT

A positive-direction move command denotes a rod extend operation: a negative-direction move command denotes a retract operation. This is when Drive Polarity is positive, which is the default setting in RSLogix 5000 software.

Tune Your Electric Cylinder with RSLogix 5000 Software

This section shows the steps to tune electric cylinders with RSLogix 5000 software. See Required Files on page 20 for the version number:

• Tuning your electric cylinder requires you to calculate and configure the loop gain based on the actual measured inertia.

• By setting travel limits, your application minimum deceleration is defined.

• Maximum acceleration is determined automatically during the tuning process.

Follow these steps to tune your electric cylinder.

1. In the Axis Properties dialog box, click the Fault Actions tab.

2. Click Set Custom Stop Action.

These parameter settings work best if the electric cylinder is installed in a horizontal (table top) or a wall mount (vertical) orientation.

3. In the Custom Stop Action Attributes dialog box, set the Brake Engage and the Brake Release delay times to the values listed in Specifications

4. Reduce the default Stopping Time Limit from 10 seconds to 0.5 seconds.

IMPORTANT

To prevent the rod from moving or falling when installed in a vertical orientation, the Stopping Time Limit must be set to 0.99 seconds or less.

on page 37.

Page 25

5. Click the Tune tab and enter these parameters:

• Travel Limit - Set to within software limits

• Speed (velocity)

• Torque/Force

Kinetix MPAI Heavy-duty Electric Cylinders Installation Instructions

IMPORTANT

Set travel limits and the direction of tuning moves in reference to the thrust rod starting position. Leave adequate travel for the thrust rod to complete its moves while tuning.

ATTENTION: Software overtravel must be set before initiating the tuning process. Check the thrust rod starting position and allow for adequate travel. Insufficient travel while auto tuning causes the software overtravel to trigger an end-stop impact.

IMPORTANT

Only check Torque Offset, as shown, if the electric cylinder is installed in a non-horizontal mount position.

6. Click Start Tuning to access the Initiate Motion dialog box.

ATTENTION: Motion occurs immediately after clicking Yes in the Motion Initiation dialog box.

7. Click Yes to begin tuning the electric cylinder.

Tuning is complete when the Tune Servo dialog box opens.

Rockwell Automation Publication MPAI-IN001G-EN-P - March 2021 25

Kinetix MPAI Heavy-duty Electric Cylinders Installation Instructions

8. Click OK to exit Tuning. The Tune Results dialog box opens.

9. Click OK if you are satisfied with the tuning results; otherwise, continue with Calculate and Configure the Loop Gain.

Calculate and Configure the Loop Gain

Calculate a position loop bandwidth based on the actual measured inertia values from the Tune Results dialog box.

In this example, the Tune Results dialog box shows a default Position Loop Bandwidth of 45.14153 Hz, and a Load Inertia Ratio of 6.8707952.

1. Calculate the Corrected Position Bandwidth. Corrected Position Loop Bandwidth = (Initial Position Loop Bandwidth Result/(Initial Load Inertia Ratio Result +1)

For example, 5.73532 = 45.14153/7.8707952

2. Enter the Corrected Position Bandwidth value 5.73532 as the Position Loop Bandwidth.

3. Click OK.

4. Answer the remaining dialog boxes to apply the values.

The proper Position Bandwidth results in a stable starting point, where you can adjust the gains to fit your application requirements.

Maintenance

Follow these steps to maintain your electric cylinder.

1. Remove power to the electric cylinder. Lock-out and tag-out the electric cylinder at the power source.

2. Check the axial play of the thrust rod for wear of the spindle nut. Increased noise is one indicator of wear.

ATTENTION: If a worn spindle nut breaks on a vertically or diagonally mounted electric cylinder, the work load falls. Uncontrolled moving mass can cause personal injury or damage to equipment.

3. Clean the electric cylinder with a soft cloth and, if needed, non-abrasive cleaning solution.

4. Lightly dampen a soft cloth with isopropyl alcohol and wipe the thrust rod and seal.

Lubrication

Your electric cylinder has been lubricated at the factory and is ready for installation. Use the appropriate lubrication interval calculations listed below for schedule estimates or use Motion Analyzer software to calculate the recommenced re-grease schedule for the electric cylinder. For lubrication kits, see Replacement Parts and

Maintenance Kits on page 36.

ATTENTION: Overfilling of the lubricant reservoir reduces performance, and can lead to heat build-up and premature failure of the electric cylinder.

A grease gun typically delivers one gram of lubricant for one pump of the gun.

The type of lubricant and the appropriate maintenance interval is dependent on the type of electric cylinder and one or more usage factors:

• Ball screw catalog number MPAI-x2xxxC does not require lubrication.

• Ball screw (catalog number MPAI-xxxxxC or MPAI-xxxxxE) electric cylinders use Mobilith SHC220 lubricant. A maximum case temperature above or below 50 °C (125 °F) during operation determines the lubrication interval.

• Roller screw (catalog number MPAI-xxxxxR or MPAI-xxxxxS) electric cylinders require lubrication at an interval that must be calculated. Factors in the calculation include severity of use, screw lead pitch, and frame size.

Kinetix MPAI Heavy-duty Electric Cylinders Installation Instructions

Anti-rotation Option

The design of the Kinetix MPAI electric cylinder allows the extending rod to rotate. This provides simple setup of the actuator because you can rotate the rod and thread it in and out of the actuator for mechanical attachment or system testing. This feature also requires that the rod be kept from rotating when used in its dedicated application to be sure of proper linear motion. In most applications, such as those where the load is coupled to linear bearings, or some other support device, the load cannot rotate, and thus provides anti-rotation for the extending rod of the actuator.

For applications where load is free to rotate, Rockwell Automation offers the anti-rotation systems shown below.

ATTENTION: The anti-rotation option is not a guide or support mechanism. It is intended as an anti-rotation device only.

Kinetix MPAI Heavy-duty Electric Cylinders Installation Instructions

Install the Anti-rotation Option

Recommended tools include 4, 5, 6, and 10 mm hex keys (Allen wrenches) and small dead blow hammer.

ATTENTION: Improper alignment of the anti-rotation shaft can result in binding and or side loading that can reduce the life of the actuator.

ATTENTION: Take precautions to not cause damage to the actuator’s grease zerk fitting throughout the following process.

ATTENTION: This procedure requires you to rotate the thrust rod. Rotating the thrust rod causes the factory set home position to be lost and require

the electric cylinder be homed before its initial use.

Follow these steps to install the anti-rotation option.

1. Assemble the anti-rotation shaft fastener into the anti-rotation clamp finger-tight, then back off one turn.

2. Assemble the anti-rotation clamp on to the rod end, orientated such that the shallow counter-bore faces the non-working end of the actuator and the clamp’s opening straddles the grease Zerk fitting.

3. Engage the flats of the anti-rotation clamp with the flats of the rod end.

Light tapping with a dead-blow hammer can be necessary to seat the anti-rotation clamp against the thrust tube.

4. Torque the anti-rotation shaft fastener to 7.8 N•m (5.8 lb•ft) while making sure the anti-rotate clamp does not shift.

5. Apply medium strength thread-locker to the two bearing block fasteners.

6. Assemble the bearing block on to the actuator finger-tight only by using the two fasteners and two washers, oriented such that the bearing block does not breech the face of the actuator.

7. Insert the anti-rotation shaft through the bearing block, orientated with the shaft’s tapped hole facing the working end of the actuator.

8. Light tapping with the dead-blow hammer can be necessary to get the anti-rotation shaft through the oil wick of the bearing block.

9. Manually rotate the thrust rod to retract the actuator as far as the application allows without mechanically stopping or striking any mounting means.

10. Verify that the bearing block fasteners are just finger-tight allowing the bearing block to float.

11. Align the shallow counter-bore of the anti-rotation clamp with the anti-rotation shaft, engage the shaft into the counter-bore.

12. Apply medium strength thread-locker to the anti-rotate shaft fastener and assemble through the anti-rotate clamp and into the anti-rotate shaft; torque to the value shown on the table.
