2 Safety instructions
Contusions
Sliders contain neodynium magnets and have a strong attractive force.
Careless handling could cause fingers or skin to become pinched between two sliders.
This may lead to contusions, bruises, and bone fractures.
When handling sliders, wear thick protective gloves and keep a minimum distance between
sliders. Refer to the "Minimum distance from slider" section for minimum distance.
To reduce the risk of injury, never more than one slider should be held or transported by the
same person without packaging.
Pacemaker / Implanted heart defibrillator
Sliders could affect the functioning of pacemakers and implanted heart defibrillators. For the
duration of a strong approach to a magnetic field, these devices switch into test mode and
will not function properly.
•If you wear one of those devices keep the following minimum distances between the
pacemaker / defibrillator and slider:
- Min. 250 mm (10ʺ) for slider Ø 27 mm and 28 mm (PL01-27 / 28 / PL10-28)
- Min. 150 mm (6ʺ) for slider Ø 19 mm and 20 mm (PL01-19 / 20)
- Min. 100 mm (4ʺ) for slider Ø 12 mm (PL01-12)
•Inform others who wear these devices to comply with these minimum distances!
Caution - Risk of Electric Shock !
Before working, make sure that there are no high voltages.
Fast-moving machine parts
The sliders of LinMot linear motors are fast-moving machine parts. All necessary
precautions must be taken to prevent persons approaching the moving elements during
operation (provide covers, guards, etc.).
Automatic restart
The motors can start automatically under certain cricumstances!
If necessary, a corresponding warning symbol must be provided and protection against
entering the hazardous area or a suitable safe electronic disconnection must be provided!
Risk of injury due to a defect or fault
For areas where a defect or fault can result in substantial property damage or even serious
personal injury, additional external precautions must be taken or devices must be installed
to ensure safe operation even if a defect or fault occurs (eg. suitable safe electronic
disconnection, mechanical interlocks, barriers, etc.).
Magnetic field
Magnets integrated in the sliders produce a strong magnetic field. They could damage TVs,
laptops, computer hard drives, credit and ATM cards, data storage media, mechanical
watches, hearing aids, and speakers.
•Keep magnets away from devices and objects that could be damaged by strong
magnetic fields.
•For the above mentioned objects, keep a minimum distance as described in the
"Pacemaker / implanted defibrillator" section.
•For non-anti-magnetic watches, keep the double minimum distance.

Installation Guide Linear Motors ENG
Page 6 / 30 P02-23S / P01-37S Short type NTI AG / LinMot
Combustibility
When machining magnets, the drilling dust could easily ignite.
Machining the sliders and the magnets they contain is not permitted.
Burn hazard
The sliders of LinMot motors can reach temperatures of 80 °C, which may cause burns
upon contact.
Grounding
All metal parts that are exposed to contact during any user operation or servicing and likely
to become energized shall be reliably connected to the means for grounding.
Mechanical handling
Neodymium magnets are brittle and heat-sensitive.
Machining the sliders and the magnets they contain is not permitted.
•Colliding magnets could crack. Sharp splinters could be catapulted for several meters
and cause eye injury.
•By machining the sliders, heat would result which demagnetises the magnets.
Slider
Linear motor sliders consist of a high-precision, thin-walled stainless steel tube in which the
neodymium magnets are housed. The LinMot sliders should be handled with care.
Avoid contact with other sliders or iron parts as this can damage the magnets and the slider
surface. Do not grip the sliders with pliers, as this can also damage the surface. Do not use
sliders which are already damaged on the surface (scratches, deformation, etc.). This can
cause further damage to the stator.
Effects on people
According to the current level of knowledge, magnetic fields of permanent magnets do not
have a measurable positive or negative effect on people. It is unlikely that permanent
magnets constitute a health risk, but it cannot be ruled out entirely.
•For your own safety, avoid constant contact with magnets.
•Store large magnets at least one meter away from your body.
Temperature resistance
Keep slider away from unshielded flame or heat.
Temperature above 120°C will cause demagnetization.

3 Installation instructions
3.1 Operating conditions
Maximum ambient temperature limits:
•Standard motors: -10 °C…80 °C
•HP (High-Performance) Motors: -10 °C…110 °C
Internal temperature sensor error occurs at:
•Standard motors: 90 °C
•HP (High-Performance) Motors: 120 °C
3.2 Instructions for installing the linear motor
Please attend to the safety instructions in chapter 2 during the assembling!
1. Clean the slider with a paper towel.
2. Lubricate the slider in accordance with the
« lubrication order » (see the section 6.3)
3. Insert the slider in regular direction (see
Assembly step 4.).

Slider front-end with ring / notch
4. Checking the installed direction of slider
After the installation, the front end of the slider
is located on the side of the cable connector or
cable exit.
3.3 Mounting the payload to the slider
The load is mounted as a fixed bearing using spherical washers and conical seats (see the section 6).
•To avoid shear force on slider and wear on stator, the payload has to be beared by a
linear guide.
When attaching the load, the wrench for tightening the load must be used only on the load-
facing side of the slider. Avoid torsional stress on slider (note the following figures).

3.4 "Moving slider" installation
In a "moving slider" installation, the stator is fixed and the slider is the moving part.
The load, borne by a linear guide, is attached directly to the end of the slider. In order to compensate for
misalignment, spherical axial bearings consisting of spherical washers and conical seats (see the section
Slider mounting kits) are used to connect to the load. The mounting kit of slider and an oversized hole for the
screw make it possible to adjust a radial and angle offset.

3.5 "Moving stator" installation
In "moving stator" applications, the slider is fixed and the stator is the moving part.
The load is attached to the stator, which is mounted on a linear guide. In order to avoid an overconstrained
bearing mount and compensate for alignment errors, the slider may be mounted on one end in a fixed
bearing with a spherical axial bearing. On the opposite end, the slider is mounted in a floating bearing.
Mounting kits are available for mounting the slider (see the section Slider mounting kits).

3.5.1 Assembling instruction
Please attend to the safety instructions in chapter 2 during the assembling!
If moving stator application is used, the minimum bending radius of the motor cable should
be adhered to. See chapter Cable, section Technical Data.
1. Mount stator to its support bearing.
2. Placing a spacer.
Put a spacer (wood, plastic, aluminium
with thickness 15 mm) between slider
and linear guide. The spacer prevents
injuries to the hands and damage to
the slider surface!
3. Insert slider into stator.

Installation Guide Linear Motors ENG
Page 12 / 30 P02-23S / P01-37S Short type NTI AG / LinMot
4. Installing the slider using the fixed bearing
The fixed bearing is screwed to the front
end of the slider.
Do not tighten the screw yet!
5. Mount floating bearing
Do not tighten the screw!
The slider is allowed to extend into the
floating bearing no more than 15 mm!
6. Move stator (back end) to the fixed end of
slider, center slider in stator and tighten the
screw.
7. Move stator (front side) to the floating
bearing and tighten screws.
After the installation of the slider a safety label must be placed close to the slider.

3.6 Minimum distance from slider
3.6.1 Minimum distance from slider to slider
The sliders are made of neodymium magnets and have a strong magnetic attraction.
It must be kept a minimum distance between the sliders. This minimized the risk of bruising and secondly,
the sliders do not influence each other through their magnetic fields.

The data are measured from slider center to slider center.
3.6.2 Minimum distance from slider to metallic parts
When installing linear motors in modules with metal parts near the slider, undesired forces can arise due to
magnetic attraction or eddy currents. These generally manifest as erratic and jerky positioning, or reduced
dynamics of the linear motor. In order to avoid this, minimum distances between the slider and any metal
parts are to be observed whenever metal materials are used nearby.
