When selecting the correct
actuator be sure that you do
not exceed the load/speed
curve. If the load/speed
curve is exceeded the motor
produces no torque and the
load may backdrive the
screw, or the control may
lose steps not knowing the
exact position of the load.
Using the motion profiles on
page 30 you can calculate
the acceleration, top speed
and deceleration needed to
accomplish a particular
move within a set time
frame. Be sure that the
acceleration and
deceleration rates that you
choose do not cause you to
exceed the load/speed
curve. If you wish to
estimate the life of an
actuator in your particular
application please refer to
the lead screw life chart on
page 36.
Detailed charts for each
actuator are shown on
pages 12–15.
