Inspection and maintenance intervals

INFORMATION

The amount of wear depends on many factors and may be high. The system manufacturer must calculate the required inspection/maintenance intervals individually in accordance with the project planning documents.

The following factors may lead to shorter inspection and maintenance intervals:

  • Number of real emergency switching off braking operations
  • Particularly high number of cycles with high motor acceleration
  • Especially high cyclic duration factor at high speed
  • Changing direction of rotation (reversing operation)
  • Vertical mounting positions and pivoted mounting positions
  • High mass moments of inertia due to the motion of the drive, e.g. in mobile drives or drives subject to high impact and vibration load
  • Application-related retrodriving torques or torsional vibrations
  • External environmental influences, such as moisture, high degree of UV exposure, low ambient temperatures.
