MAX300 Series 3-Axis Flexure Stages
Chapter 5 Maintenance and Troubleshooting
5.1 Maintenance of Motor Drives
After prolonged use, and particularly in applications where small movements are
continually repeated, the grease on the drive shaft may build up in ridges. This may
cause rough or noisy movement, vibration and excessive heating.
It is good practise to run the motor periodically from one end of travel to the other
several times in order to redistribute the grease.
5.2 Troubleshooting
Caution
Under normal operation, the piezo mechanism uses contact with the
micrometer drives in order to move the top platform. If for any reason the stage
is operated with the micrometer drives removed, blanking plugs (DRV000
available as a custom from Thorlabs) must be fitted before the pizo actuators
can function.
