Oversea specification

Important notes on selection

(1) The output torque decreases as the rotation speed increases. For details, please check the "Correlation diagram of rotational speed ​​and output torque".
(2) The allowable moment of inertia of the rotating workpiece varies depending on the rotation speed. For details, please check the "Correlation diagram of rotational speed and allowable moment of inertia".
(3) The brake is for holding. Do not use for braking/emergency stop purposes.
(4) When making a selection, please calculate according to the "Selection method (page 2-95 onwards)" and check the usage conditions before making your selection.
(5) If push operation is required, please check the "Correlation diagram of pressing force and current limit value" first. Pressing force shown are their standard value.
(6) The maximum acceleration/deceleration is 0.7G in horizontal/ceiling position and 0.5G in sideways/vertical position.
(7) When connecting the RCON-EC connection specification (ACR) to the EC connection unit (RCON-EC-4), the number of connections that can be made is limited. Refer to page 2-798 for further details.

Homing method and forward rotation direction

330 Degrees Rotating Specification

When viewed from the top of the rotating part, the clockwise rotation is the forward (+) direction.

Rotates counterclockwise while homing.

Detects the position of the mechanical stopper, reverses the operation, and then stops.

(Note) All operating directions will be reversed for home-reversed specification.

Guideline for load shape and mass

■ When the center of gravity of the disc-shaped load is the same as the output shaft rotation center

Acceleration 0.3G

Acceleration 0.5G

Acceleration 0.7G

■ When the center of gravity of the loaded object is offset from the output shaft rotation center

Acceleration 0.3G

Acceleration 0.5G

Acceleration 0.7G
