There may be cases when holding is not possible due to the magnetic brake's life, the machine
construction (when ball screw and servomotor are coupled via a timing belt, etc.) or the magnetic
brake's failure. Install a stop device to ensure safety on the machine side.
After changing the programs/parameters or after maintenance and inspection, always test the operation
before starting actual operation.
Do not enter the movable range of the machine during automatic operation. Never place body parts
near or touch the spindle during rotation.
Follow the power supply specification conditions given in each specification for the power (input voltage,
input frequency, tolerable sudden power failure time, etc.).
Set all bits to "0" if they are indicated as not used or empty in the explanation on the bits.
Do not use the dynamic brakes except during the emergency stop. Continued use of the dynamic
brakes could result in brake damage.
If a circuit protector for the main circuit power supply is shared by seve ral units, the circuit protector may
not activate when a short-circuit fault occurs in a small capacity unit. This is dangerous, so never share
the circuit protector.
CAUTION
(5) Troubleshooting
If a hazardous situation is predicted during power failure or product trouble, use a servomotor with
magnetic brakes or install an external brake mechanism.

1 Production Outline
1-1 Structure of liner servo motor
Our linear servo motor consists mainly of the primary side (LM-FP) with cores and coils, and the secondary
side (LM-FS) with yoke and permanent magnets.
As the secondary side has permanent magnets, take special care in handling.
Motor coil
Fig. 1 Structure of linear servo motor
1-2 Primary side
The primary side has motor cores to which windings are applied. The cores are protected by mold.
Compared with metal parts, the mold is susceptible to breaking or cracking due to shock or stress, which
may deteriorate the product's quality.
Therefore, pay special attention in carrying and installing not to damage the mold.

Yoke side
(Almost no attraction force generated)
Magnetic force
1-3 Secondary side
The secondary side has a yoke with permanent magnets on. The mold is applied to the surface of it.
As it has permanent magnets, magnetic attraction force is generated between it and magnetic material as
iron.
The magnetic attraction force is generated mainly on the magnet side. (Almo st no attraction force is
generated on the yoke side.)
Therefore, take safety measure in handlin g to avoid accidents due to the attraction force.
In addition, the magnetic force is released into the air, so do not make devices that are affected by the
magnetic force such as pacemaker, watch, etc… approach to the product.
<Permanent magnet>
Permanent magnet releases the magnetic force into the air all the time.
So the magnetic attraction force is generated if magnetic material is placed close to the magnet.
In addition, as the magnetic force is released into the air, devices susceptible to the magnetic force may be
damaged if they are placed near the product.
As our linear servo motor has high quality magnets, take special care in handling.
The size of the magnetic attraction force is about 4 [kgf/

Especially if two secondary sides are placed close to each other,it is highly dangerous as the magn etic
attraction force will be greatly strong. For the secondary side, take the sufficient safety measure.
If more than one secondary side are used together, or when you exchange secondary sides, never
leave the secondary sides unattended.

It is very dangerous to leave the secondary side (magnetic plate) unattended after taking it out from
the package. Furthermore, it is highly dangerous to leave the secondary sides (magnetic plates)
unattended together, therefore never do so.
Install with the following procedure to eliminate clearances between the secondary sides (magnetic plates).
1. Use nonmagnetic tools (Explosion-proof beryllium copper alloy safety tool: Nihon Gaishi, etc)when
installing the secondary side (magnetic plate).
2. If a secondary side (magnetic plate) is already installed and another secondary side (magnetic
plate) is to be added, place the additional secondary side (magnetic plate) away from the side
already installed, then horizontally slide the additional side to the specific position.
3. To install two or more secondary sides (magnetic plates) side by side, the accumulated location
tolerance of installation screw pitch must be within -/+0.2mm. Clearances may be resulted on the
secondary side (magnetic plate) depending on how to install.

1. The required cooling capability (W) is not a specified va lue, but a reference value.
2. Customer is responsible for designing the cooling system, including piping to the coolant pipe
embedded in the primary (coil) side, installing the pipes, and selecting parts, cooling device (chiller)
and coolants.
3. Make sure to add an equipment, such as a filter, to the flow path to avoid foreign matters fro m
flowing in the coolant pipe.
4. Customer should select appropriate liquid-cooling pipes and joints so that no leakage will occur.
For the liquid-cooling pipes, select the ones that have enough bending tolerance.
5. We recommend that the liquid poured into the coolant pipe be at room temperature (around 20
degree C) or below. When the temperature is lower, the cooling effect will be enhanced, but dew
condensation may be caused.
6. The coolant pipes are made of copper, so select a rust-preventive agent that won't cause copper
corrosion, and add it to the coolant.

The servo drive unit has an electronic thermal relay to protect the servomotor and servo drive unit from
overloads. The operation characteristics of the electronic thermal relay are shown below when standard
parameters (SV021=60, SV022=150) are set. If overload operation over the electronic thermal relay
protection curve shown below is carried out, overload 1 (alarm 50) will occur. If the maximum torque is
commanded continuously for one second or more due to a machine collision, etc., overload 2 (alarm 51) will
occur.

(Note 1) The application may vary due to the specification changes or production discontinuance by the
detector manufacturer. Thus, be sure to carefully check each manufacturer's specifications before
use.
(Note 2) MP scale is not available, as this can't detect the absolute position independently.

4-4 Cables and connectors
(2) Cautions for using optical communication cable
Optical communication cable is made from optical fiber. If optical fiber is added a power such as a major
shock, lateral pressure, haul, sudden bending or twist, its inside distorts or breaks, and optical transmission
will not be available. Especially, as optical fiber for G396-L□. □M is made of synthetic resin, it melts down if
being left near the fire or high temperature . Ther efor e, do not make it touched the part, which becomes high
temperature, such as radiator or regenerative brake option of drive unit.
Read described item in this section carefully and handle it with caution.
(a) Minimum bend radius
Make sure to lay the cable with greater radius than the minimum bend radius. Do not press the cable to
edges of equipment or others. For the optical communication cable, the appropriate length should be
selected with due consideration for the dimensions and arra ngement of drive unit so that the cable bend
will not become smaller than the minimum bend radius in cable laying. When closing the door of control
box, pay careful attention for avoiding the case that optical communication cable is hold down by the
door and the cable bend becomes smaller than the minimum bend radius.
Lay the cable so that the numbers of bends will be less than 10 times.
(b) Bundle fixing
When using optical communication cable of 3m or longer, fix the cable at the closest part to the
connector with bundle material in order to prevent optical communication cable from putting its own
weight on CN1A/CN1B connector of drive unit. Optical cord should be given loose slack to avoid from
becoming smaller than the minimum bend radius, and it should not be twisted.
When tightening up the cable with nylon band, the she ath material should not be distorted. Fix the cable
with tightening force of 1 to 2kg or less as a guide.
Minimum bend radius
For wiring inside panel: 25mm
For wiring outside panel: 50mm
wall
When laying cable, fix and hold it in position with using cushioning such as sponge or rubber which does
not contain plasticizing material.
Never use vinyl tape for cord. Plasticizing material in vinyl tape goes into optical fiber and lowers the
optical characteristic. At worst, it may cause wire breakage. If using adhesive tape for cable laying, the
fire resistant acetate cloth adhesive tape 570F (Teraoka Seisakusho Co., Ltd) is recommended.
If laying with other wires, do not make the cable touched wires or cables made from material which
contains plasticizing material.
4 - 15
4 Detector Specifications
MITSUBISHI CNC
(c) Tension
If tension is added on optical fiber, the increase of transmission loss occurs because of external force
which concentrates on the fixing part of optical fiber or the connecting part of optical connector. At worst,
the breakage of optical fiber or damage o f optical connector may occur . For cable laying, handle without
putting forced tension.
(d) Lateral pressure
If lateral pressure is added on optical communication cable, the optical cable itself distorts, internal
optical fiber gets stressed, and then transmission loss will increase. At worst, the breakage of optical
cable may occur. As the same condition also occurs at cable laying, do not tighten up optical
communication cable with a thing such as nylon band (TY-RAP).
Do not trample it down or tuck it down with the door of control box or others.
(e) Twisting
If optical fiber is twisted, it will become the same stress added condition as when local lateral pressure
or bend is added. Consequently, transmission loss increases, and the breakage of optical fiber may
occur at worst.
(f) Cable selection
・ When wiring is outside the power distribution panel or machine cabinet, there is a highly possibility
that external power is added. Therefore, make sure to use the cabl e for wiring outsid e panel (G380-
L □□ M)
・ If a part of the wiring is moved, use the cable for wiring outside panel.
・ In a place where sparks may fly and flame may be generated, use the cable for wiring outside
panel.
(g) Method to lay cable
When laying the cable, do not haul the optical fiver or connector of the optical communication cable
strongly. If strong force is added between the optical fiver and connector, it may lead to a poor
connection.
(h) Protection in unuse
When the CN1A/CN1B connector of the drive unite or the optical communication cable co nnecto r is not
used such as pulling out the optical communication cable from drive unit, protect the joint surface with
attached cap or tube for edge protection. If the connecto r is left with its joint surface bared, it may lead to
a poor connection caused by dirty.
(i) Attaching /Detaching optical communication cable connector
With holding the connector body, attach/detach the optical communication cable connector.
If attaching/detaching the optical communication cable with directly holding it, the cable may be pulled
out, and it may cause a poor connection.
When pulling out the optical communication connector, pull out it after releasing the lock of clock lever.
(j) Cleaning
If CN1A and CN1B connector of the drive unit or optical communication cable connector is dirty, it may
cause poor connection. If it becomes dirty, wipe with a bonded textile, etc. Do not use solvent such as
alcohol.

4-4 Cables and connectors
(k) Disposal
When incinerating optical communication cable, hydrogen fluoride gas or hydrogen chloride gas which
is corrosive and harmful may be generated. For disposal of optical communication cable, request for
specialized industrial waste disposal services that has incineration facility for disposing hydrogen
fluoride gas or hydrogen chloride gas.
(l) Return in troubles
When asking repair of drive unit for some troubles, make sure to put a cap on CN1A/CN1B connector.
When the connector is not put a cap, the light device may be damaged at the transit. In this case,
exchange and repair of light device is required.

Selected wires must be able to tolerate rated current of the unit's terminal to whic h th e wire is conn ec te d.
How to calculate tolerable current of an insulated wir e or cable is shown in "Tolerable current of electric cab le" (1)
of Japanese Cable Makers' Association Standard (JCS)-168-E (1 995), its electric equipment technical standards
or JEAC regulates tolerable current, etc. wire.
When exporting wires, select them according to the related standards of the countr y or area to expo rt. In the UL
standards, certification conditions are to use wires of 60 ℃ and 75 ℃ product. (UL508C)
Wire's tolerable current is different depending on co nditions such as its material, structure, ambient temperature,
etc. Check the tolerable current described in the specification of the wire to use.
Example of wire selections according to each standard is as follows.
