Technical description
6Technical description
6.1Gear unit configuration
The devices of the AG2210 - LPxxx series are single- or multi-stage, low-backlash planetary gear units. They
can be used in any installation position. All gear units are manufactured in version "M" (motor mounting) as
standard. The design of the output shaft bearings ensures that high breakdown torques and axial forces can
be absorbed. The motor can be centered via the bearing socket (not via the adapter plate). This avoids radial
distortion of the motor. Various motors can be adapted via an adapter plate and spacer sleeve.

9.1Important notes
CAUTION
Damage to persons and devices
• Read up on the general and special safety instructions before starting the work.
NOTE
Improper operation may result in damage to the gear unit.
• Please ensure that
ð the ambient temperature is not below -15 °C and not above +40 °C, and
ð the operating temperature does not exceed +90 °C.
• Avoid icing, which can damage the seals.
• For other operating conditions please contact our customer service.
• Only use the gear unit up to its maximum limits (see Section "General technical data").
• Only use the gear unit in a clean, dust-free and dry environment.
Commissioning
DANGER
Serious risk of injury!
• Only specialist personnel with extensive knowledge in the areas of electrical engineering / drive technology are allowed to install and commission the equipment.
• Check that all live connection points are protected against accidental contact. Dangerous voltages can
occur, up to 875 VDC.
• Due to the DC link capacitors, the DC link contacts "ZK+ and ZK- (DC+ and DC-)" and "RB+ and RB-"
may be subject to dangerous voltages exceeding 875 VDC, even after the servo drive was disconnected
from the mains supply. Wait 5 minutes for the AX5101 - AX5125 and AX520x; 15 minutes for the
AX5140/AX5160/AX5172; 30 minutes for the AX5190/AX5191; 45 minutes for the AX5192/AX5193 after
disconnecting, and measure the voltage at the DC links "ZK+ and ZK- (DC+ and DC-)". The device is
safe once the voltage has fallen below 50 V.
• The surface temperature of the motor can exceed 90 °C in operation. Check (measure) the temperature
of the motor. Wait until the motor has cooled down below 40 °C before touching it.
• Make sure that, even if the drive starts to move unintentionally, no danger can result for personnel or
machinery.
NOTE
Overloading of the gear!
With motor / gear combinations can in case of failure (mechanical blockage of the power train) due to high
ratio, the gear will be overloaded.
To prevent this, make sure that the motor rated torque and the motor peak torque is limited in the
servo drive.
Example:
• Motor rated torque / motor peak torque: 1 Nm / 5 Nm
• The motor rated torque is not limited. The motor peak torque is limited to 2,4 Nm.

9.2Guide for commissioning the gear units
The procedure for commissioning is described as an example.
A different method may be appropriate or necessary, depending on the application of the equipment.
• Check the assembly and alignment of the motor and the gear unit.
• Check the drive components such as clutch, gear unit, belt pulley and gear unit for correct seating and
setting (observe the permissible radial and axial forces).
• Check the wiring and connections at the motor, servo drive and gear unit. Check that the earthing is
correct.
• Test the function of the holding brake, if used. (Apply 24VDC, the brake must release).
• Check whether the rotor of the motor revolves freely (release the brake, if necessary). Listen out for
grinding noises from the motor and the gear unit.
• Check that all the required measures against accidental contact with live and moving parts have been
carried out.
• Carry out any further checks which are specifically required for your system.
• Now commission the drive according to the commissioning instructions for the servo drive.
• In multi-axis systems, individually commission each drive unit (servo drive/motor(s)).
• During the installation and commissioning look out for chips or similar contaminants that may penetrate
into the gear unit. Keep the work area clean and protect the gear unit from foreign objects. Penetration
of dirt reduces the service life of the gear unit.
Destruction of the gear unit due to maximal engine torque!
Before commissioning, check that your configured max. engine torque does not destroy the gear
unit. For further information, please refer to chapter 9.1: "Important notes [}31]".
