Product Information
3.1 Mode of Operation
The FMS winderGLIDE linear actuators feature a backlash-free ball screw driven by a stepper motor. This enables precise corrections at high adjusting speeds. The linear actuator is connected to the web guiding controller using one cable only and an easily
accessible connector. Its compact dimensions and various mounting options make the FMS winderGLIDE the ideal candidate for retrofit on existing systems.

Installation
4.1 Preparation
The FMS winderGLIDE linear actuators are defined as an “incomplete machine” in line with EC Directive 2006/42/EC, Article 2. When installing the FMS winderGLIDE, the following conditions must be met to ensure proper function and installation in a
machine without negative impact on safety and health of persons:
The linear actuators may not be subjected to loads outside of the specified values during installation and operation. In particular, the device must not be used outside of the temperature range and protection class.
The installation points on the machine frame must be designed correctly to properly accommodate the installation of the actuator.
The linear actuator and related web guiding controller must be wired correctly.

Warning
Damaging the push rod
When tightening the rod end, you must secure the push rod against twisting using a hexagon wrench, otherwise the thread of the push rod may be damaged!!
The static part of the linear actuator must be mounted to the machine frame, e.g., using the rod end on the housing or using the flange on the front part of the spindle housing.
The push rod of the actuator is mounted to the take-up or pay-off station.
The FMS winderGLIDE is designed for installation in horizontal position.
