The slide films on the telescopic axis wear with time so that backlash starts to occur on the telescopic axis.
How fast slide films wear depends on the following:
Load applied
Paths traveled
Movement speeds and transverse accelerations
Quantity and type of contamination
Material of the slide films

---|---|
1 |
Measure the circumferential backlash of the slide films. |
2 |
If the backlash is greater than +/-0.5° or no longer sufficient for the application, replace the slide films. |
3 |
Verify the total operating hours of the robot according to the maintenance plan and replace the slide films if necessary. |
