6.2Inspection
Components of the linear axis may be damaged or destroyed as a result of a collision.
After a collision, inspect the drive elements, the linear guide and the elastomer coupling for damage according to the instructions in the following chapters.
6.2.1Ball screw drive
Check the linear axis for unusual noise and vibrations.
Perform a visual inspection of the ball screw drive for damage. To do so, remove the cover strip as described in chapter 6.3.4 "Replac- ing the cover strip (and the strip deflection)".
A damaged ball screw drive must be replaced. Contact your local sales office.
6.2.2Ball screw bearing
Check the linear axis for unusual noise and vibrations.
A damaged ball screw bearing must be replaced. Contact your local sales office.
6.2.3Linear guide
The linear guide consists of the guide carriage and the profile rail.
Perform a visual inspection of the linear guide for damage. To do so, remove the cover strip as described in chapter 6.3.4 "Replacing the cover strip (and the strip deflection)".
A damaged linear guide must be replaced. Contact your local sales office.
6.2.4Elastomer coupling
Perform a visual inspection of the elastomer coupling for damage. To do so, remove the motor or the gearbox as described in chapter 6.3.2 "Replacing the motor or the gearbox".
NOTE: A damaged elastomer coupling must be replaced. See chapter 6.3.2 "Replacing the motor or the gearbox" for the procedure.
