This manual contains general procedures that apply to Baldor Linear Motor products. Be sure to read  
and understand the Safety Notice statements in this manual. For your protection, do not install, operate  
or attempt to perform maintenance procedures until you understand the Warning and Caution statements.  
A Warning statement indicates a condition that can cause harm to personnel. A Caution statement  
indicates a condition that can cause damage to equipment.  
Important:  
This instruction manual is not intended to include a comprehensive listing of all details for all  
procedures required for installation, operation and maintenance. This manual describes general  
guidelines that apply to most of the linear motor products shipped by Baldor. If you have a  
question about a procedure or are uncertain about any detail, Do Not Proceed. Please contact  
your Baldor distributor for more information or clarification.  
Before you install, operate or perform maintenance, become familiar with the following:  
ꢀ
NEMA Publication MG-2, Safety Standard for Construction and guide  
for Selection, Installation and Use of Electric Motors and Generators.  
The National Electrical Code  
ꢀ
ꢀ
Local codes and practices  
Limited Warranty  
1. Baldor Electric motors are warranted for a period of one (1) year, from date of shipment from the factory or factory  
warehouse against defects in material and workmanship. To allow for stocking and/or fabrication period and to  
provide one year of actual service, the warranty period is extended for an additional period of six (6) months for a  
total of eighteen (18) months from the original date of shipment from the factory or factory warehouse stock. In no  
case will the warranty period be extended for a longer period. Baldor extends this limited warranty to each buyer  
of the electric motor for the purpose of resale and to the original purchaser for use.  
2. Baldor will, at its option repair or replace a motor which fails due to defects in material or workmanship during the  
warranty period if:  
a. the purchaser presents the defective motor at or ships it prepaid to, the Baldor plant in Fort Smith, Arkansas  
or one of the Baldor Authorized Service Centers and  
b. the purchaser gives written notification concerning the motor and the claimed defect including the date  
purchased, the task performed by the Baldor motor and the problem encountered.  
3. Baldor will not pay the cost of removal of any electric motor from any equipment, the cost of delivery to Fort Smith,  
Arkansas or a Baldor Authorized Service Center, or the cost of any incidental or consequential damages resulting  
from the claimed defects. (Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential  
damages, so the above exclusion may not apply to you.) Any implied warranty given by laws shall be limited to  
the duration of the warranty period hereunder. (Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied  
warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.)  
4. Baldor Authorized Service Centers, when convinced to their satisfaction that a Baldor motor developed defects in  
material or workmanship within the warranty period, are authorized to proceed with the required repairs to fulfill  
Baldor’s warranty when the cost of such repairs to be paid by Baldor does not exceed Baldor’s warranty repair  
allowance. Baldor will not pay overtime premium repair charges without prior written authorization.  
5. The cost of warranty repairs made by centers other than Baldor Authorized Service Centers WILL NOT be paid  
unless first authorized in writing by Baldor.  
6. Claims by a purchaser that a motor is defective even when a failure results within one hour after being placed into  
service are not always justified. Therefore, Baldor Authorized Service Centers must determine from the condition  
of the motor as delivered to the center whether or not the motor is defective. If in the opinion of a Baldor  
Authorized Service Center, a motor did not fail as a result of defects in material or workmanship, the center is to  
proceed with repairs only if the purchaser agrees to pay for such repairs. If the decision is in dispute, the  
purchaser should still pay for the repairs and submit the paid invoice and the Authorized Service Center’s signed  
service report to Baldor for further consideration.  
7. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.

Receiving  
Each Baldor motor is thoroughly tested at the factory and carefully packaged for  
shipment. When you receive your motor, there are several things you should do  
immediately.  
1. Observe the condition of the shipping container and report any damage  
immediately to the commercial carrier that delivered your motor.  
2. Verify that the part number of the motor you received is the same as the part  
number listed on your purchase order.  
Storage  
If the parts are not put into service immediately, store them in a clean, dry and warm  
location. If the storage location is damp or humid, the exposed metal surface of the  
motors and windings must be protected from moisture. If the ambient temperature  
decreases suddenly, condensation may form. Protect all parts from moisture.  
Unpacking  
Each Baldor motor is packaged for ease of handling and to prevent entry of  
contaminants.  
1. To avoid condensation inside the motor, do not unpack until the motor has  
reached room temperature. (Room temperature is the temperature of the room  
in which it will be installed). The packing provides insulation from temperature  
changes during transportation.  
2. When the motor has reached room temperature, remove all protective wrapping  
material from the motor.  
3. The magnet track sections may come packaged in one or more boxes. Do not  
flip any magnet track sections inside the box. Unpack the magnet track  
sections one piece at a time. Place each section on a clean non–magnetic  
surface away from other magnet track sections and any other ferrous material.  
4. Always keep the magnet track sections at a safe distance from each other. If  
the assemblies are to be left unattended for any period of time, precautions  
should be taken to prevent accidents due to the strength of the magnets (it is  
best to leave them in their packing material to prevent injury due to magnetic  
attraction). Persons who will come in contact with this assembly while  
receiving, transporting, storing, installing, disassembling or at any other time,  
must be made aware of this danger.  
Handling  
Be extremely careful. Keep in mind:  
1. The magnetic attraction between the motor and the magnet assembly is  
extremely high. Keep fingers and other body parts away from these objects to  
avoid injury by this magnetic attraction.  
2. Use proper care and procedures that are safe during handling, lifting, installing,  
operating and maintaining operations.  
Improper methods may cause muscle strain or other harm.  
Repairs  
Baldor will not share any responsibility for damage caused by customer attempt to repair  
or modify a motor. Consult Baldor for any service.

Section 2  
Installation & Operation  
Overview  
Location  
Installation should conform to the National Electrical Code as well as local codes and  
practices. When other devices are coupled to the motor, be sure to install protective  
devices to prevent accidents. Machinery that is accessible to personnel should provide  
protection in the form of guard rails, screening, warning signs etc.  
The motor should be installed in an area that is protected from direct sunlight, corrosives,  
harmful gases or liquids, dust, metallic particles, welding spatters and vibration.  
Exposure to these can reduce the operating life and degrade performance. Be sure to  
allow clearance for ventilation and access for cleaning, repair, service and inspections.  
Ventilation is extremely important. Be sure the area for ventilation is not obstructed.  
Obstructions limit the free passage of air. Motors get warm and the heat must be  
dissipated to prevent damage.  
These motors are not designed for atmospheric conditions that require explosion proof  
operation. They must NOT be used in the presence of flammable or combustible vapors  
or dust.  
Clean Room  
Stages prepared for Class 10, 100 and 10,000 clean room requirements can be ordered  
as an option to our standard products. Materials must be suitable for the specified  
environment. The customer must perform the final cleaning due to contamination during  
shipping and handling.  
The most common changes to the stages include the replacement of the bellows,  
installation of special greases, elimination of bearing shields and the removal of other  
non–critical components that may contribute to particle generation.  
Mounting a Stage to the Machine Base and Payload To Stage  
S
Your stage is provided with mounting holes to attach the stage to a machine base. If  
your stage is supplied with bellows, you must remove the bellows to access the  
mounting holes. The mounting holes are typically non–threaded, counter–bored  
holes that accommodate a variety of screw sizes. It is recommended that a  
hardened machine screw be used. Refer to the mechanical drawings provided with  
your stage for mounting screw size and hole locations.  
S
The flatness of your mounting surface will greatly influence the flatness and  
straightness specification of your stage. The stage structure will tend to mirror the  
flatness of the mounting surface. For the stage to maintain its specification, it must  
be mounted to a surface that is flat (maximum error of 0.0005 inches per foot). A  
maximum of 0.010 inches per foot is the maximum mounting surface flatness error  
allowable for operation of the stage. However, at 0.010 inches per foot mounting  
base flatness, the stage flatness and straightness specification will be degraded.  
S
The mounting surface must be clean and free of particles that could affect flatness  
(particles that come between the stage and the mounting surface) . It is also  
recommended that the base of the stage be cleaned to remove contamination.  
Cleaning with alcohol or acetone is suggested, however avoid submersion or  
contamination of the internal components.  
S
S
When mounting the payload to the slide assembly, use the same precautions  
mentioned for the stage. Refer to the stage outline drawing for hole locations and  
specifications.  
When pinning is required, Baldor recommends that the stage be machined and  
assembled at the factory.  
Note: It is strongly recommended that a thread locking compound be used when  
mounting the stage to the base and when mounting the payload to the slide  
assembly.

LMAC Linear Induction Motor  
General Description:  
Construction:  
Single or three phase, linear AC induction motor primary.  
Epoxy encapsulated and steel laminated coil assembly (motor primary) Motor secondary  
(customer supplied) must conform to the following specifications: 1/8–inch aluminum or  
copper plate backed by a 1/4 inch cold rolled steel plate. The width of the secondary must  
be at least the with of the motor coil assembly.  
Maintenance:  
Motor should be kept dry and relatively free of contamination. This motor is water  
resistant, not water proof. Avoid submersion. Avoid contact with petroleum–based  
solvents. Alcohol or soapy water can be used to remove contaminants.  
Motor specifications:  
Motor Mounting:  
Refer to catalog or outline drawing supplied with motor for mechanical dimensions and  
electrical specifications.  
Your motor may be supplied with either base or foot mounting, refer to catalog or outline  
drawing supplied with motor for mounting details and hole dimensions. It is  
recommended that all available coil assembly mounting holes be utilized to properly  
secure the coil assembly. If the coil is in motion, the motor wires must be strain relieved.  
We recommend that the motor secondary be secured with 1/4inch fasteners on the left  
and right sides of the secondary, every four to six inches of its length. An air–gap of 1/8  
inch is recommended. Refer to linear induction motor duty cycle–force–current curves in  
this booklet for information regarding the affects of air–cap size on motor performance.  
Electrical Connections  
For voltage and current specifications, refer to Catalog BR1800 or to documentation  
enclosed for custom motors. The 10 foot flying leads can be cut to remove excess length  
if required. Connectors are available; contact a Baldor representative for more  
information.  
For single phase motors, refer to the table supplied with this booklet for capacitor  
selection.

LMBR Series Brush DC Linear Servo Motor  
Mounting  
The motor primary must be aligned (parallel) to the equipment guide ways within 0.005″  
(0.127mm) on each end. Use gauge blocks and shims as necessary. Precise parallel  
alignment of the motor to the equipment guideways is required. Align the stationary half  
of the motor to the guideways. Then align the moving half with the stationary half.  
When securing the primary to the equipment base do not allow the screws to penetrate  
the motor more than .25″ deep (to prevent damage to the motor windings).  
To mount the motor secondary, slide the table over the secondary and align the mounting  
holes. The secondary is to be secured to the moving table with screws after the proper  
amount of shims are added to maintain an air gap of .015″ min. to .020″ max. (unless  
otherwise specified) between the secondary and the primary. This is achieved by  
ensuring that the plastic shim provided does not bind anywhere over the length of the  
primary when moving the table top with secondary back and forth by hand.  
The plastic shim between the primary and the secondary can now be removed. Be sure  
that the secondary is centered and runs parallel to the commutator to within .005″ at each  
end.  
Electrical Check:  
Motor Removal:  
With an ohmmeter across input terminals, verify that the resistance reading does not drop  
to zero when the secondary / commutator assembly is moved over the entire length of the  
stationary primary. If a zero reading is observed, inspect the connections between the  
commutator brushes and the power input wires. In addition, inspect the connections  
between the motor windings and the commutator bar.  
Insert the plastic shim between the primary and secondary to maintain the air gap. First,  
disconnect the power input wires. Next, remove the screws between the secondary and  
the moving table as this allows the secondary to sit on the primary. Then remove the  
mounting screws between the primary and the base. Finally, the complete motor  
assembly can be removed and placed on a level, flat surface.  
Secondary Removal:  
If just the secondary must be removed,slide the table with the secondary attached, to one  
end of the primary. Insert a .015″ minimum plastic shim between the secondary and the  
primary to maintain the air gap. Remove the screws between the secondary and the  
sliding table. Move the table out of the way and slide the secondary out using extreme  
caution so as to not damage the brushes. If brushes are worn out, contact Northern  
Magnetics for replacement.  
Secondary Reinstallation: Place .015″ minimum plastic shim on primary face. Next place .015″ min fiberglass shims  
on the brush assembly and completely depress the brushes into their holders. With the  
brushes toward the commutator bars, slide the secondary onto the primary face (with the  
shim in place). When the secondary is in place, gently remove the shim from between  
the brushes and commutator bars.  
Note: Ensure that the shim between commutator and brushes has rounded ends  
and that they do not cut the leads to the commutator bars.  
Refer to “Mounting” instructions to reinstall.

LMBL Series  
Brushless Linear Iron Core Servo Motor  
Installation  
Refer to Figure 2-1.  
1. Install the magnet assembly onto the machine mounting base.  
2. With the slide assembly removed from the rails, install the coil assembly onto  
the slide, tightening the mounting screws.  
3. Place a non–magnetic shim over the magnets, sized to cover all the magnets.  
(The shim thickness must be equivalent to the air gap specification. The normal  
air gap is 0.030″ ± 0.005″ unless otherwise specified).  
4. Install and push the slide along the rails, positioning the coil assembly directly  
over the shim.  
(An alternate method is to install the slide on a set of rails that is identical to the  
one being used. Butt the temporary rails to the system rails and transfer the  
slide onto the system rails.)  
For either method, it is extremely important to uniformly tighten the mounting screws.  
Improper tightening will bend the primary or secondary and damage the motor.  
If there is not enough space to install the coil assembly as described, use this alternate  
procedure.  
Alternate Installation Refer to Figure 2-1.  
1. Place the non–magnetic shim on the magnet track.  
2. With a firm grip on the coil assembly, place one end of it on the shim and slide it  
into place, centered over the magnets. Be careful not to let the magnet and coil  
“Slam” together.  
3. Align the fastening screw holes on the slide with the holes on the coil assembly.  
4. Loosely install all the mounting screws.  
5. Insert enough shims between the slide and the coil assembly to fill the gap.  
6. Tighten all the mounting screws, alternating in a systematic manner while  
tightening such that the coil assembly is drawn–up evenly leaving a uniform air  
gap between the coil assembly and the magnets. This air gap must be  
maintained along the entire length of the magnet assembly i.e.; the coil  
assembly must never touch the magnets at any point when moving along the  
length of the magnet assembly and the air gap specification must be  
maintained at all times.  
7. Remove the shim that sets the air gap prior to operation.

Multiple Coil Assembly Operation  
In addition to maintaining an air gap, multiple coil assemblies must also maintain a  
spacing factor of 1.8″. In other words, the space between coil assemblies may vary,  
however, the distance from the front end of the first coil assembly to the front end of the  
next must be a multiple of 1.8″. See Figure 2-2.  
Ensure that this spacing is established at the time of installation.

Operation Considerations The motor must always be operated within the specified operating parameter limits.  
Exceeding those limits will permanently damage the motor Refer to the motor  
specifications for operating parameter limits.  
The motor must never touch the magnets during operation. Refer to “Adjust Air Gap”.  
Remove the shim that sets the air gap between the motor and the magnets prior to  
operation.  
Note: Be aware that the total bearing load includes the magnetic attractive force.  
The following steps must be completed to ensure safe and proper operation.  
1. Verify that all electrical wiring and cables are properly connected. Refer to the  
manual provided with the control for this information.  
2. Adjust the control continuous current limit to match the motor’s continuous  
current specifications.  
3. Adjust the servo drive current to match the motor’s current specification.  
4. Refer to the motor specifications for operating parameters. Adjust the control  
parameters as necessary to the motor data specifications.  
5. Adjust the control for the proper P.I.D. loop tuning. Begin at a low gain setting  
and increase the gain as necessary.  
6. Strain relieve the wires prior to operating.

Modular Magnet Track  
Installation  
Refer to Figure 2-3. Some magnets are provided in modular segments. This is the  
recommended procedure to install these modular magnet track sections.  
Note: It is recommended that rubber coated tool handles be used to reduce injury  
(pinching fingers etc.) and protect the surface of the magnets.  
1. Bolt the coil assembly onto the underside of the slide (carriage). Ensure the  
leads extend in the proper direction.  
2. Install the magnet track on the base–plate adjacent to or between the linear  
bearing. Magnet track ends should not oppose each other.  
Place a 0.030″ ± 0.005″ thick non magnetic shim on the magnet track. The  
shim thickness must be equal to the recommended air gap (space between the  
coil assembly and the magnet track).

3. Hold the slide with a firm grip and move it over the magnet track section/shim.  
Note: The slide will be drawn forcefully towards the magnet track and may  
overshoot the rails if not held firmly.  
Check the space between the shim and the coil assembly. If the space  
between the shim and the coil assembly is large, uniformly loosen the mounting  
screws allowing the coil assembly to be fully and evenly lowered onto the shim.  
Insert another shim thick enough to fill the gap between the coil assembly and  
the slide, see Figure 2-4. Tighten the mounting screws once again.

1. Install the coil and magnet assemblies. While mounting the coil, be sure to  
adjust coil assembly so it is centered within the magnet assembly with equal air  
gap in the vertical and horizontal positions. See Figure 2-6.  
2. Verify that the coil assembly is centered within the magnet assembly with equal  
air gap in the vertical and horizontal positions along its entire length of travel.  
The coil assembly must never be allowed to touch the magnets at any point  
from one end of travel to the other.  
Note: For modular magnet mounting, magnets are mounted end–to–end without  
spacing. The mounting hole pattern is repeating and is unaffected by magnet  
segments. Hole pattern repeats across joining ends of magnets.  
Multiple Coil Assembly Operation  
In addition to maintaining an air gap, multiple coil assemblies must also maintain a  
spacing factor of 2.4″. In other words, the space between coil assemblies may vary,  
however, the distance from the front end of the first coil assembly to the front end of the  
next must be a multiple of 2.4″. See Figure 2-6.  
Ensure that this factor is established at the time of installation.

Positioning Stages  
Unpacking  
Observe the condition of the shipping container and report any damage immediately to  
the commercial carrier that delivered your stage. Carefully remove the positioning stage  
from the shipping crate or box. Inspect the stage and report any evidence of damage to  
your local Baldor sales office or authorized distributor. Save the shipping container for  
future transportation.  
Handling and General Guidelines Be sure to observe the following guidelines:  
1. Carefully set the positing stage in place. Do not drop a positioning stage onto  
the mounting surface or machine base as this can result in internal damage to  
bearing and drive components.  
2. Do not drill holes in a positing stage. Contact Baldor if holes must be added.  
3. Avoid impact loads such as hammering and punching which may cause internal  
damage to bearing and drive components.  
4. Avoid submersion in liquids of all types.  
5. Do not disassemble the positioning stage as this may void the product warranty.  
Stage Specifications Disclaimer  
Positioning stage specifications are dependant on the three following variables:  
Temperature: Catalog specifications are measured at 25 degrees Celsius.  
Measurements of performance at other temperatures may yield different measurements.  
Minimum ambient operating temperature: 5 degrees Celsius. Maximum ambient  
operating temperature: 75 degrees Celsius. The positioning stage can be modified by  
Baldor to allow the unit to be operated at temperatures outside of this range. Contact  
Baldor for more information.  
Point of measurement: Catalog specifications are measured 25mm above the slide

Bearing Maintenance  
Recirculating Bearing Rail And Block  
Lubrication type: For grease lubrication, a lithium–soap base grease (consistency  
No. 2 of JIS) is most frequently used. For linear guides operating under a heavy load, a  
grease containing extreme pressure additive is recommended.  
Maintenance procedure: Clean rails with clean cloth. Apply a thin film of grease onto  
the rail. Manually pass the bearing block down the rail and allow the grease to pass  
through the wipers on the leading and trailing edges of the bearing block. Wipe away any  
excess grease. Avoid excess grease to achieve the lowest friction resistance.  
Some bearings are supplied with special grease fittings. Contact Baldor for specific  
instructions for these fittings.  
Frequency of maintenance: Recirculating bearing rails are lubricated by Baldor prior to  
shipment of the positioning stage. Inspect the rails frequently and apply grease at least  
once each year. Frequency of maintenance depends on factors including duty cycle and  
environment. Inspect for contamination, damage, corrosion, etc.  
Note: Do not mix synthetic greases with petroleum based greases. For special  
requirements lubrication, consult Baldor.  
Cross Roller Type Bearing  
Lubrication type: Usually these bearings do not require additional lubrication. However,  
in applications where the duty cycle is high with rapid motion, lubrication with lithium, non  
paraffin base bearing grease is recommended. A mineral based grease with a viscosity  
of 15 to 30 is recommended  
Maintenance procedure: Apply a thin film of grease into the “V” surface of the bearing  
rail. Avoid excess grease to achieve the lowest friction resistance.  
Frequency of maintenance: Cross roller bearing assemblies are designed to provide  
long, trouble free working life and require minimal maintenance. Cross roller bearing rails  
are lubricated by Baldor prior to shipment of the positioning stage. We recommend that  
you inspect the rails frequently and apply grease at least once each year. Frequency of  
maintenance depends on factors including duty cycle and environment. Inspect for  
contamination, damage, corrosion, etc.

Encoder Maintenance  
RSF Series MSA6x Enclosed Type  
Technical Data: Linear encoders measure the position of linear axis without mechanical  
translation components. This reduces the potential error due to thermal behavior of the  
linear motor and backlash from mechanical translation.  
Encoder type: Non contact optical, sealed type. Sealed linear encoders are used in  
harsh environments in such applications as milling machines, drilling machines, grinding  
machines, lathes, electrical discharge machines, and welding machines.  
Mechanical design: Glass scale, optical scanning unit, high flex twisted shielded cable.  
Encoder scale, optical scanning unit and guide–way are protected from chips, swarf, dirt  
and fluids by an aluminum housing and flexible rubber type seals. The optical scanning  
unit travels on a low friction guide within the encoder enclosure.  
Maintenance: The exterior of the encoder should be inspected and cleaned. An alcohol  
or soapy water saturated cloth is usually effective for removing external contamination. If  
the internal components are contaminated, please consult with Baldor or an authorized  
distributor for assistance. (DO NOT attempt to dissemble the encoder enclosure).

RSF Series MS6x Open Type Glass Scale  
Encoder type: Non contact optical, glass scale, open type. Open scale linear encoders  
are used primarily where environmental conditions are clean, dry and free of oils. Due to  
the fragile nature of the encoder scale, extra care should be taken to prevent physical  
damage from impact or abrasion.  
Mechanical design: Glass scale, optical scanning unit, high flex twisted shielded cable.  
Encoder is adhered to stage surface with a two part, releasable bonding agent. (DO NOT  
attempt to remove the scale from the stage surface, for this will permanently damage the  
encoder scale. Contact Baldor or an authorized distributor for assistance)  
Maintenance: The encoder scale can be cleaned with alcohol. Avoid chemicals such as  
acetone, MEK, and other solvents and soaps that can damage the scale or leave a film.  
The encoder optical scanning unit should be treated with great care as not to scratch or  
mar the external read head surface. If cleaning is required, the encoder read head  
surface can be cleaned with alcohol. (Avoid submersion). Using a cotton swab, lightly  
wipe clean the contaminated surfaces. If removal of the encoder optical read head is  
required, consult with Baldor or an authorized distributor.

are used primarily where environmental conditions are clean, dry and free of oils. Due to  
the fragile nature of the encoder scale, extra care should be taken to prevent physical  
damage from impact or abrasion.  
Mechanical design: Metal scale, optical scanning unit, high flex twisted shielded cable.  
Encoder is adhered to stage surface with a two part, releasable bonding agent. (DO NOT  
attempt to remove the scale from the stage surface, for this will permanently damage the  
encoder scale. Contact Baldor or an authorized distributor for assistance)  
Maintenance: The encoder scale can be cleaned with alcohol. Avoid chemicals such as  
acetone, MEK, and other solvents and soaps that can damage the scale or leave a film.  
The encoder optical scanning unit should be treated with great care as not to scratch or  
mar the external read head surface. If cleaning is required, the encoder read head  
surface can be cleaned with alcohol. (Avoid submersion). Using a cotton swab, lightly  
wipe clean the contaminated surfaces. If removal of the encoder optical read head is  
required, consult with Baldor or an authorized distributor.

* Scaling is a calibration technique used to determine and communicate linear encoder  
and positioning stage mechanical characteristics, (accuracy and resolution) to the  
motion controller.  
Note: Max speed is determined by the encoder resolution, the controller’s band  
width and the mechanical limitations of the positioning stage. Should you  
need assistance in calculating the maximum speed for the positioning stage,  
please consult with Baldor.

ELGO Mix 4 series Magnetic Type  
Encoder type: Non contact, magnetic, open type. Open scale linear encoders are used  
primarily where environmental conditions are clean, dry and free of oils. The magnetic  
encoder scale is susceptible to damage from magnetic fields. Great care should be taken  
to isolate the magnetic scale from magnets, static electricity, and electrical current.  
Mechanical design: Magnetic scale with stainless steel protective cover, magnetic  
sensor unit, high flex twisted shielded cable. The magnetic linear encoder system  
features an integrated sensor and translator with a one shot marker pulse output (Elgo  
Mix 4). With the one shot marker pulse, the encoder can send a marker pulse once after  
power–up when it passes the marker tape (maximum speed 0.1 m/second). Encoder is  
bonded to the stage surface with a double sided industrial adhesive tape. (DO NOT  
attempt to remove the scale from the stage surface, for this will permanently damage the  
encoder scale. Contact Baldor or an authorized distributor for assistance).  
Maintenance: The encoder scale can be cleaned with soapy water or alcohol. Avoid  
chemicals such as acetone, MEK, and other solvents. The encoder magnetic scanning  
unit should be treated with great care as not to scratch or mar the external read head  
surface. If cleaning is required, the encoder read head surface can be cleaned with  
soapy water or alcohol. (Avoid submersion). Using a cotton swab, lightly wipe clean the  
contaminated surfaces. If removal of the encoder magnetic read head is required,  
consult with Baldor or an authorized distributor.

Cables and Cable Chain Procedures  
If your positioning stage is supplied with a cable chain, follow these recommendations  
regarding its use:  
S
Your stage is supplied with high flex cables that are designed to withstand  
millions of bend cycles. In addition, the internal conductors of the cable are  
twisted and shielded. A twisted, shielded cable reduces the problems  
associated with EMI and EFI noise. Using other types of cable may cause  
difficultly during servo tune procedure. Baldor recommends that any additional  
cables installed into the cable chain conform to this standard.  
S
The cable chain must never be more than 80% filled. Additional cables,  
pneumatic hoses, etc. contained by the cable chain require enough space to  
freely bend and conform to the cable chain without kinking or cork screwing as  
the stage cycles. The cables and pneumatic hoses must be installed without  
twists and should never be put on top of one another in high velocity and high  
cycle applications.  
S
S
If your stage was provided with flying leads, Baldor recommends that the cables  
be strain relieved, i.e. clamp the cables as they exit the cable chain to relieve  
tensile loads. Be sure not to pull the cables out of the cable chain making them  
“taut” inside the chain. Allow the cables to freely lay within the cable chain and  
find their natural position.  
To install additional cables and pneumatic hoses you must open one side of the  
cable chain. Typically the side of the cable chain facing the cable chain tray is  
the side that opens. Gently pull one end of the removable side toward the  
opposite end of the cable chain. Slowly pull the removable side loose,  
detaching the plastic segments. The segments are loosely attached to each  
other and may become separated. Be careful that the segments are not lost.  
To re–install the cable chain segments, it is recommended that a section of  
three or four segments be done at a time. Once a section is installed,  
additional sections can be easily assembled into place.  
S
Baldor recommends that you inspect the cables and pneumatic hoses during  
regular maintenance procedures.  
Note: If your cable chain is not large enough to accommodate your cables and  
pneumatic hoses, please contact Baldor for assistance.
