1.2 DAILY INSPECTION OF AC SERVO MOTORS
Before starting operation, or periodically (once a week or month), you
should inspect the AC servo motors in terms of the following:
(1) Vibration and noise
Check the motor for abnormal vibration (by the hand) and noise
(by the ear) when the motor is:
• Not rotating
• Rotating at low speed
• Accelerating or decelerating
If you find anything unusual, contact your FANUC service staff.
(2) Damage on the outside
Check the Pulsecoder cover (red plastic) for crevices and the
motor surface (black coating) for scratches and cracks.
If you find a crevice in the Pulsecoder cover, you should replace it.
For how to replace, see the description about the Pulsecoder in
Section 1.4. If you are not sure about replacement, contact you
FANUC service staff.
If there is a scratch or crack on the motor surface, the user should
repair it by himself as required. If coating has come off, dry the
portion of interest (or the entire surface) and coat it with paint for
machines such as urethane paint.
