Installation and Debugging Tips for Servo Drivers

When talking about the precision motion system, servo drivers are one of the core accessories that will make sure that your systems are well functioning. Below are some guidelines on how to install and troubleshoot servo drivers with primary emphasis on Jiesheng Electric high-end products.

What Are Servo Drivers?

A servo driver is an electromechanical system that drives servo motors by controlling their speed, position, and torque. It takes the commands made by the controller and serves accuracy, thus making it very useful in places that call for perfection. Jiesheng Electric makes servo drivers that are more advanced and dependable, which helps enhance the performance of these devices in the different environments.

Installation Tips

Read the Manual

Before setting up the system, please read the user manual issued by Jiesheng Electric. The manual contains additional information relevant for the specific model in use, including circuit and layout instructions.

Choose the Right Location

Find an appropriate location of clean, dry, and ventilated environment for the installation of the servo driver. Dust, moisture, or excess heat should be avoided because they could be detrimental to performance. Make sure that there is sufficient clearance space around the driver for cooling and maintaining it.

Although it is not true, there are certain safety measures both for the installation and usage of the device. Respect the wiring diagram, in particular soft-wires J106 and J107 to prevent a short-circuit or wiring irregularties made. Select wires and connectors that are adequate in all-jontype cable installation for electrical power. You do not need external charts for identification of connections because the products from Jiesheng Electric are marked on the product terminals.

Mount the servo driver in a manner such that the chances of vibrations influencing its operation are heavily reduced. In case high forces are applied to the master-slave arrangement, vibration-damping mounts should be used if they prove necessary.

Once installed do not forget to turn on the power and after that check the LED indicators on the servo driver. These little lights afford important operating information as well as revealing warning of mistakes that are liable to take place. For understanding special on-off LED indicator worked see the Jiesheng Electric manual.

Before switching on main voltage Commands should be checked completely. This command should be interpolated in order to create the non-linear properties. The servo motor shall accept the orders correctly as well. It is recommended to raise steadily the commanded velocity and watch the reaction of the motor. If it does not, redo the wiring and check the settings one more time.

Do not forget that not only illumination increases risk factors but also temperature, the temperature of the operation of the servo driver should be controlled. When it is observed that maximum temperature exceeds the nominal expected, such concerns as poor configuring or ventilation arises. In the event that a cooling fan is fitted it is important that it is working.

Leverage the Capabilities of Available Software

Jiesheng Electric and many other manufacturers of servo drivers usually provide utilities for configuration and diagnostics. Make use of such software, in order to adjust settings and resolve problems. In the majority, this program offers the most current available data about you which helps in solving issues as soon as they arise.
