Correlation of push force and current limit value
In push-motion operation, the push force can be changed by setting the current limit value of the controller between 20% and 70%.
The maximum push force will vary depending on the model, so please refer to the graphs below and on the following page, and select a type based on the needed push force for your intended use.

When performing the push-motion operation with the slider type, and mini table type please limit the push current in order that the reactive moment caused by the push force does not exceed the dynamic allowable moment (Ma, Mb) in the catalog. Please refer to the figures below, which show the working point of the guide moment, for help with calculating the moment. This can be done by considering the offset of the push force application position.
Please note that if excessive force which exceeds the dynamic allowable moment is applied, it may damage the guide and shorten its service life. Please keep this in mind and select a push current that is safely within its limits.

Calculation example)
When 200N push operation is performed with EC-S7 at the position shown in the figure at right, the moment applied to the guide is:
Ma = (22+50)×200 = 14400 (N•mm) = 14.4 (N•m).
The dynamic allowable moment for EC-S7 is Ma = 17.7 (N•m), which means it is OK
since 17.7 > 14.4.
Also, should an Mb moment occur due to the push operation, calculate the moment from the overhang and ensure that it is within range of the dynamic allowable moment.

* During push motion, the speed is fixed to 20 mm/s. If the velocity setting value (V) is less than 20 mm/s, the speed setting of V is used for the push speed but the push force will be unstable.
