3.3.2 Information relating to the self-locking facility
WARNING
Danger of injury through loss of the self-locking facility.
Crushing and fatal injuries are possible.
•
Use device with a brake.
CAUTION
Possible damage to the device or customer’s machine through loss of the self-
locking facility.
• Use device with a brake.
With the devices it is differentiated between dynamic and static self-locking. Dy-
namic self-locking arises from movement and static self-locking when the device
is at a standstill. The self locking facility on the devices is dependent on various
factors, e.g.:
• Flight angle of the spindle and nut
•
Surfaceroughnessoftheanksofthespindleandnut
• Running speed
Theself-lockingfacilitycanbenegativelyinuencedbyamultitudeoffactors,
e.g. by:
• Shocks and vibrations
• Loads
• Heating
A theoretically self-locking spindle is no replacement for a brake. For this reason
the assumption of any warranty obligations relating to self-locking is excluded.
Self-lockingisNOTforthepurposeoffulllinganysafety-relatedproperties.
In order to minimize any further dangers, observe the duty of care that is normal
for technical products.
