Things what you MUST know before use mightyZAP

Here is essential information to use mightyZAP properly. To prevent product damage by unintended result,

please peruse below before use.

1. Control load should be less than Rated Load & Beware of injury

For example, rated load of L12-20PT-3 is 20N(approx. 2kg). That is, lifespan of L12-20PT-3 can be maximized when it is used

under 20N. The less load, the longer lifespan.

If actuator should be inevitably used over the rated load, within max 2 times the rated load, reduce the duty rate to less

than 20% to increase the break time. In this case, it is recommended not to use at the Z axis. Also, always pay close attention

to prevent unexpected injury while actuator is operated.

2. Position command within mechanical limit

There might be mechanical limit which servo rod can move when user install servo motor in their application. Make sure

that positional command should be made within user’s mechanical limit. It might be a common knowledge to mention, but

we have seen this mistake from time to time. If positional command is out of mechanical limit, servo will be overloaded at

certain point of time and power will be cut off to protect the servo due to overload protection feature. (if overload

protection is inactivated by user, motor will not be protected and burnt eventually.) Considering precise position control,

make sure to re-check this matter when servo is applied.

3. Use under 50% of Duty Cycle

If DC motor operates continuously without any interval (rest), motor will be overloaded and overload protection feature

will cut off the power of servo motor. Therefore, user should consider “Duty cycle” which means the percentage of motor

operating time in whole cycle. In other words, 50% duty cycle means that motor should rest 50% of time when motor

operate during 50% of time to manage motor lifespan more efficiently. Use under 50% of duty cycle for optimized lifespan.

The less duty cycle, the longer lifespan.

4. Pay attention! Incorrect or reverse wiring and GND

There is little chance of incorrect wiring when using wire harness with connector provided by our factory.

However, if users use soldering or a third-party connector according to user’s desire, please pay attention to mis-wiring

between the communication and power lines. Incorrect wiring results in fatal damage to the PC board or certain electrical

components. In addition, do not forget the common GND between the actuator & the customer's communication device

to prevent malfunctions and product damage due to electrical noise.

Please refer to the wiring pin map on page 12 ~ 13 at the mightyZAP user manual to prevent incorrect wiring

5. How to mount rod end accessory – Do not twist the rod

Do not TWIST the rod with excessive force when tightening the rod end tip.

Caution : If you apply excessive twisting force to the rod when tightening the rod and tip (while the body is fixed), it may

cause damage to internal part (Engineering Plastic rod-insert).

Follow below instruction to avoid damage.

[How to assemble – Use M3 spanner] 1) Fix the Rod-end with the included M3 spanner (⑤). This is to prevent the rod (①) from turning badly and damage while tightening the M3 nut (②). 2) According to preference, install the socket set screw (③) or rod end tip (④) to the proper positioning before hard tightening. 3) Adjust the angle of the rod end tip (④) to the desired angle.
