10 Maintenance and repair

Maintenance is restricted to lubrication of the Ball Screw Assembly using a
conventional manual grease gun or for greasing option LCF with a central
lubrication system with semi-fluid grease. Basic lubrication is carried out by the
manufacturer. Only with greasing option LPG initial lubrication is necessary.
Nozzle pipes for the manual grease gun with a suitable mouth piece can be
ordered using the order number R345503044.

10.1 Lubrication
The following options are possible on delivery:
LSS: Initial lubrication in the factory with Dynalub 510
LCF: Initial lubrication in the factory with Dynalub 520, prepared for connection
to central lubrication system with semi-fluid grease
LPG: Preserved, not initially lubricated (initial lubrication with double the
relubrication quantity required!)
LHG: Initial lubrication in factory with NSF-H1 grease

XX Before using lubricants, read and take note of the corresponding material
safety data sheets.

NOTICE
Missing lubrication!
Failure to perform basic lubrication will lead to damage to the product
(LPG version)
ff Never start up product without basic lubrication.

Risk of property damage due to insufficient lubrication!

Loss of performance and corrosion.
ff Lubricate the product every two years or when the specified travel distance has
been covered – whichever limit is reached first ! Table 23 on page 59.

Performance altered by special operating conditions!

Damage to the product.
ff Before starting up the product under special operating conditions, please
consult Bosch Rexroth AG. This applies especially to environments with
glass fiber or wood dust, solvents, extreme temperatures, and for short-
stroke applications.
R320103102/2018-10 EMC Bosch Rexroth AG 55/64

NOTICE
Overlubrication!
Increased coefficients of friction resulting in increased temperature generation
in the Ball Screw Assembly.
ff Do not significantly overlubricate the product.

Risk of insufficient lubrication due to use of wrong lubricants

ff Use only the recommended lubricants.
ff Do not use lubricants containing solid particles (e.g. graphite or MoS2).
ff Only use lubricants of one type.

Leakage of lubricant!
Environmental contamination.
ff Take suitable precautions to collect any escaping lubricant and dispose of it
in the proper way. EN

Avoiding pressure peaks due to excessive speed after lubrication!

Damage to the product.
ff Operate slowly (<0.5 m/s) immediately after lubrication.

XX If using a central lubrication system, make sure all lines and elements are
filled with lubricant all the way to the connection to the consumer and there
are no trapped air bubbles.
XX Rexroth recommends the pump tank or supply tank for the lubricant be
equipped with an agitator in order to ensure that the lubricant keeps flowing
(preventing funnel formation in the tank).
XX Rexroth recommends piston distributors by SKF. These should be installed as
close as possible to the EMC lube fitting. Long lines and small line diameters
should be avoided, and the lines should be laid on an upward slant. Install
the lines at a gradient.
XX The number of pulses results from the relubrication quantity and the piston
distributor size.

ff Approach the rear end position with the following parameters.
Maximum speed: 10 mm/s
Maximum force: 5% of Fmax EMC

1. In order to reach lubrication position LLub, move the piston rod to stroke
position S2. For this purpose, move S1 from Table 21 on page 57 from the
rear end position. ! Fig. 41
2. For greasing options LSS, LPG and LHG, lubricate the Ball Screw Assembly
via the lube nipple. For greasing option LCF, replace the funnel-type lube
nipple with the enclosed port for the central lubrication system and grease it.
Apply the full relubrication quantity in one go ! Table 23 on page 59.
3. Extend and retract the piston rod over its entire travel range for three full cycles.

XX Only one kind of the lubricants must be used. Mixing different types of grease
is prohibited.

10.1.3 Lubrication with H1 grease

Ball Screw Assembly and other components are initially lubricated with NSF-H1
lubricant.
Even when using an H1 lubricant, the EMC has only limited suitability for use in
food industry.
H1 lubricants or separating agents (preserving agents) only then have H1
approval if they are available with grade purity in an unmixed state. A blend of
two H1 approval lubricants or separating agents does not have H1 approval.
Due to the preservation used for the Ball Screw Assembly, the H1 lubricant in
the EMC does not have grade purity.

10.1.2 Relubrication quantities and intervals

If the specified travel range is completed, or after no more than two years,
whichever is reached first.
To ensure the lubricant is evenly distributed, the quantity of grease specified has
to be applied per lubrication interval.

This applies to the following conditions:

•• No exposure to media
•• Ambient temperature: T = 10 - 40 °C Fm = Equivalent dynamic load (N)
•• Normal operating conditions C = dynamic load capacity (N)
•• Fm/C ≤ 0.2 Fm/C > 0.2 ! Please consult
•• No short stroke (travel path < smin)

XX With short-stroke (travel path < smin): Halve the relubrication interval and
relubrication quantity (only valid for distances > 2xP).
For distances < 2xP please contact Bosch Rexroth.

XX Use of lubricants with H1 approval (e.g. Berulub FG-H2SL):

First relubrication takes place after 20 km. The subsequent relubrication
intervals ! Table 23 on page 59.
XX Initial lubrication with the LPG lubrication option:
With the LPG option, initial lubrication needs to be carried out prior to start-
up. To do this insert double the relubrication quantity in two partial amounts.
After each partial amount, extend and retract the piston rod over its entire
travel range for three full cycles.
60/64 Bosch Rexroth AG EMC R320103102/2018-10

NOTICE
Missing lubrication!
Failure to perform basic lubrication will lead to damage to the product
(LPG version)
ff Never start up the electromechanical cylinder without basic lubrication.

XX Re-lubrication with the LCF option:

The pulse count can be calculated as the quotient (rounded to the next whole
figure) of the relubrication quantity and the piston distributor size.

Example:
EMC-040-NN-2 with BASA 16x10
Fm/C: 0.1
Lubrication interval: 375 km
Relubrication quantity: 1.1 cm³
Piston distributor size: 0.2 cm³

Relubrication quantity 1.1 cm3

Number of pulses: = = 6
Piston distributor size 0.2 cm3

11 Removal and replacement

To ensure the accuracy of the EMC after replacement of assemblies, sub-
assemblies may only be dismantled and replaced by Rexroth.
The only exceptions to this rule are the work steps described in this section.

11.1 Disassembling the drive

WARNING
Risk of electrical shocks due to contact with live parts!
Severe personal injury or even death.
ff Before commencing any electrical installation work, switch off the power
supply and secure it against reactivation.
EN
Risk of piston rod crashing down in vertical or slanting installations as the
unit is not self-locking!
Severe personal injury or even death.
ff If the product is installed vertically or on a slant, secure the piston rod
against dropping before loosening the fastening screws.
ff Do not stand in line with the direction of travel of the piston rod.

11.1.1 Disassembling the motor with flange and coupling

Disassembly is carried out in the reverse order

11.1.2 Disassembling motor and timing belt side drive

CAUTION
Potential uncontrolled motion of the pre-tensioned toothed belt when
loosening the screws!
Risk of injury.
ff Take care when unscrewing the fastening screws on the motor.

Disassembly is carried out in the reverse order

The EMC contains a number of different materials: aluminum, steel, plastics,
grease and, possibly, electronic components.

NOTICE
Environmentally hazardous materials can pollute the environment if not
disposed of properly!
Environmental pollution.
ff Collect any escaping lubricant and dispose of it correctly.
ff The product and its components must be disposed of correctly and in
compliance with all applicable national and international guidelines
and regulations.
