Installation ASDA-B3 2.4.1 Troubleshooting for the motor operation and status When the servo motor makes abnormal noises: 2 When the servo motor is overheating: 2-8 Possible causes Checking methods Handling measures Check if there is any foreign object, damage, or deformation in the movable parts of the connecting component. 1. Check if the servo motor has been subject to impact force or vibration which causes damage to the encoder. 2. Remove and shake the motor to see if there is any abnormal noises (disk damage). 3. Visually inspect the encoder’s rear cover for dust (encoder damage).
Possible causes Checking methods Handling measures Mounting surface of the servo motor has poor thermal conductivity. Measure the temperatures of the servo motor frame and the mounting surface (metal). The temperature difference should not exceed 20°C (68°F). Make sure the installation surface is flat; if there are other objects (such as paint or gasket) between the mounting surface and motor surface resulting in poor heat dissipation. Remove the object or use other methods to help heat dissipation (such as forced air cooling for the servo motor).
