1. GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1 Important remarks
The following instructions will be used as technical documentation for the manufacturer of the
final machine. elcom is the supplier of this TLM 2000 transfer system sub-assembly .
The manufacturer of the final machine must make sure that:
- All safety equipment is provided and functional,
- Regular checks are carried out,
- All danger (pinching, squashing) due to moving parts is controlled,
- The documentation is complete.
1.2 Applicable standards
According to the 2006/42/CE European directive, elcom transfer systems are considered as partly
completed machines. They are therefore not subject to an EC declaration of conformity but are
the subject of a declaration of incorporation. The latter is transmitted at the time of delivery,
accompanied by the exploded view of the motorized equipment.
However, the following standards are taken into account during the design and the manufacturing
of the elcom transfer systems:
–The European Machinery Directive 2006/42/CE
–The European Low Voltage Directive73/23/CE
elcom ensures an adequate follow-up and products quality formalized by the ISO 9001
certification.
For environmental reasons, elcom also meets the requirements of the ISO 14001 standards.
1.3 Applications
The elements of the linear TLM 2000 transfer systems are designed to carry and position
workpiece carriers according to the end customers’ configuration.
They are intended to be incorporated the customers' production line.
1.4 Conditions of use
The elements of the TLM 2000 transfer systems are suited for a use in normal industrial areas
such as a final assembly plant or equivalent, in a dry environment.
They are not suited for transporting materials such as sand, balls or grain.
The maximum load applicable on the transfer system is mentioned in the catalog and must never
be ignored.
To ensure a proper functioning of the transfer system on a maximum period of time, you must
follow this advice:
- Use temperature between 0 and 40°C (30 and 140°F),
- Avoid dusty or smoky atmosphere,
- Avoid accumulation of sharp objects on the transfer system,
- Avoid setting the machine in direct exposition to UV rays.

1.5 Safety instructions
Safety rules regarding transfer systems, especially the ones concerning the electrical
devices, must be followed during all the use phases: mounting, transport, production.
Disregarding these rules would be regarded as a wrong use of the machine.
Using the transfer system in an explosive atmosphere can have a negative impact on
the transfer system and is strongly discouraged.
Never perform any maintenance on your own. Another worker must be present at all
time in order to shut the power down or perform first aid actions if needed.
Changing the motor position or removing security parts must only be done when the
transfer system is unplugged from any power supply.
When carrying maintenance or handling tasks while the transfer system is operating
(belt tension setting), take care not to slide your hand between the belt and the belt
support in order to avoid any accident.
All the different types of positioning units include several mobile parts driven by
pneumatic cylinders. Therefore, they must be well protected in the end-user
machine in order to avoid any risks of pinching or squashing. We recommend
mounting a protective housing around it. In case of manual shift, the final machine
can not be used without the protections installed at the indexing and stop station
1.6 Safety instructions regarding the motor
In case of a power failure, turn off the transfer system: it could restart automatically
when the power comes back, which could cause damages and even injuries to the
operator.
1.7 Additional information
These instructions aim at ensuring the safety of the people and the proper functioning of the
transfer system. If you wish to use the transfer system in any other conditions, please do not
hesitate to contact us.
