3.2 Functional principle
Two fixed stepper motors drive a toothed belt arrayed in an H-shape.
The toothed belt moves the Y-axis (traverse) and the slide located on the Y-axis (traverse) in a 2-dimen
sional space. A controller calculates the position of the slide. The controlled interaction of the motors
results in the corresponding movement of the slide.

– Adjust the lifting speed.
� When securing the product, perform the following measures:
– Secure the product in a professional manner.
– Only use the supplied mounting components.
– Secure the screw connections.
– Make sure the mounting surface is sufficiently strong to absorb the maximum
forces.
Observe the safety data sheet for adhesives (� www.festo.com/en/msds).
4.2 Preparation
Note
For mounting, Festo recommends using adjusting kits.
� After alignment, the limit values of the axis alignment must be complied with
(� Tab. A.2, page 45).
4 Mounting
Festo – EXCM-40-EN – 1602 – English 11

Warning
Transport lugs may break if loaded incorrectly.
Danger as a result of product falling.
� Load all of the transport lugs evenly and at an angle of 45° (� Fig. 4.5).
� Do not laterally stress the transport lugs (� Fig. 4.5).
4. Adapt the transport lugs to the direction of
force of the lifting gear:

Warning
Unexpected movement of the product.
Risk of impact and crushing injuries.
� When lifting the product, perform the following measures:
– Secure movable components with transport restraints to prevent unexpected
movement.
– Observe the product weight.

(� Fig. 4.1).
If mounting kits are covered by the Y-axis (traverse), this can be moved manually. To do
this, remove the motors (� 4.5.4 Dismantling/mounting motors) or release the holding
brake.
If mounting points are covered by the energy chain, this can be detached
(� 4.5.3 Attachments on the energy chain).

4.4.5 Checking the toothed belt pretension
Note
Incorrect toothed belt pretensioning can damage the product. Possible consequences:
– Reduced service life of the toothed belt, guides and ball bearings
– Altered performance of the product
– Impaired positioning accuracy
– Position errors and risk of collision caused by skipping of the toothed belt
Remedy: Check and adjust the toothed belt pretensioning in the following cases:
– After installing the product for the first time
– After the initial commissioning phase (after approx. 30 strokes at operating temper
ature)
– After removal/installation or replacement of the toothed belt
The toothed belt pretensioning can be inspected with mounted or dismounted profile
cover of the X-axis.
Use an acoustic frequency meter to check the toothed belt pretensioning.
4 Mounting
Festo – EXCM-40-EN – 1602 – English 23
1. During initial start-up:
Remove motors with holding brake
(� 4.5.4 Dismantling/mounting motors).
After commissioning:
Release holding brake.
2. Place the belt tension setting piece 4 on the
guide rail 2 between the drive cover (motor
side) 3 and carriage 5.
3. Slide the Y-axis (traverse) 1 with the carriage
against the belt tension setting piece.
� The distance dimension of 144.4 mm (L11)
for checking is set.

7 8
Fig. 4.18
Note
The toothed belt must be able to vibrate freely and must not touch the probe of the
frequency measurement device. For evaluation of the toothed belt pretension, perform
several measurements to balance out any measurement tolerances.
5. Make the toothed belt vibrate by hitting it once with a slim, heavy object (e.g. an Allen key 6).
6. Read the self-generated frequency of the toothed belt on the frequency meter. The measured value
must be in a frequency range of 150 … 160 Hz.
� If the measured value is within this tolerance range, the toothed belt has the correct pretension.
� If the measured value is outside this tolerance range, the toothed belt pretensioning must be
adjusted.

4.4.6 Setting the toothed belt pretension
Note
The toothed belt pretensioning diminishes during storage and operation. This is normal
and must not be changed by increasing the tension of the toothed belt. The reduced
pretension is not suitable for evaluating the level of wear of the toothed belt.
1. Unscrew the 2 threaded pins 1.
� The locking element of the belt tensioning
device is released.
1
Fig. 4.19
Note
Clockwise rotation of the adjusting screws will increase the tension and frequency of
oscillation of the toothed belt.
Anti-clockwise rotation of the adjusting screws will reduce the tension and frequency of
oscillation of the toothed belt.
2. Change toothed belt pretensioning by evenly
turning the 2 adjusting screws 2.
3. Move or travel the Y-axis (traverse) once over
the entire stroke of the X-axis. This causes the
toothed belt to fully settle and equalises dif
ferences in tension.

Danger
Serious crushing due to axis movements of the product.
� Slowly move or travel the Y-axis (traverse) and the slide of the Y-axis.
� Make sure that no one is located in the movement area during the axis movements.
Note
For motors with holding brake, it is not possible to manually move the Y-axis (traverse)
and the slide of the Y-axis.
The product must be connected and ready for operation.
� Move the Y-axis (traverse) and slide of the Y-axis in manual override.
Observe the documentation (� Description EXCM-… “Commissioning”).
1. Lubricate each of the guide carriages of the X-axes at the 4 lubrication nipples 3 with half of the
specified amount of lubricant (� Tab. 7.1).
2. Move the Y-axis (traverse) to a suitable position for access to the maintenance opening 5
(� Fig. 7.1).
3. Move the slide of the Y-axis until the 2 lubrication nipples 2 are accessible one after the other in
the maintenance opening (� Fig. 7.1).
4. Lubricate each of the guide carriages on the Y-axis (traverse) at the lubrication nipples with half of
the specified amount of lubricant (� Tab. 7.1).
5. Move the Y-axis (traverse) and slide of the Y-axis once along the entire stroke to evenly distribute
the lubricant
6. Perform steps 1. to 5. again.
7.4 Repair
If you require support for repairs: (� www.festo.com/sp).

– Adjust the lifting speed.
8.2 Procedure
1. Move the Y-axis (traverse) to the mechanical end position opposite the motors.
2. Disconnect all of the electric cables and pneumatic tubing from the product.
3. Mount the retaining plates with transport lugs and transport restraints (� Fig. 4.4).
4. Secure movable parts (e.g. Y-axis (traverse), attachment component, etc.) with cable ties
(� Fig. 4.4).
5. Mount transport lugs with support plate to the X-axes (� Fig. 4.4).
6. Dismantle the product.
8.3 Recycling
Incorrect disposal is harmful to the environment.
� Observe local regulations regarding disposal and the environment.
� Observe local regulations for disposal of modules.
� Use lubricants (greases, oils) in accordance with the applicable regulations for health
