    Removing the electronic PCBs

    Remove the screws from the covers at the back side of the instrument.
    Remove the MOTIO or Control board and disconnect the ribbon cables.
    Remove the CPU board if applicable.
    Disconnect the cable from the Gas Flush tube if applicable (use a gripping plier).

    Removing the Covers


    1
    Remove both side covers from the X axis.
    Remove the front cover from the Y axis.
    Remove the rear cover from the Y axis.

    Note: Check if the Ribbon Cable is deformed or even damaged.

    Removing the ribbon cables

    Pay special attention to the X-Y axis ribbon cable .


    Disengage the X/Y carriage from the X axis and disengage as well the Y axis Profile.
    Remove the X-Y and the X-Z ribbon cables.

    Disassembling X-Y Unit

    Exchanging X-Y position sensors

    Exchange the X axis position


    sensor PCB (Observe the
    orientation of the cable connector).

    Press the PCB away from the


    metallic X/Y-carriage during
    tightening the two screws..

    The reason for this pre-caution is to give


    enough space for the sensor component and
    the blind shutter built-in the X-Profile.

    Disassembling X-Y Unit

    Exchanging X-Y position sensors

    Exchange the y axis position sensor


    PCB (Observe the orientation of the
    cable connector).

    Ensure the contact of the


    Grounding Conductor with the PCB
    and the carriage.

    Note: Leave the grounding point at the motor


    untouched.

    Disassembling X-Y Unit

    Exchanging X-Y position sensors

    Mount the Y-Axis Position Sensor


    PCB. Press the board from the side
    against the X/Y-Carriage.

    The reason for this pre-caution is to


    avoid a contact from the senor
    component against the Toothed
    Rack built-in the Y-Axis Profile.
    Check this point carefully when the
    Y-Profile is engaged.

    Note: Leave the grounding point at the motor


    untouched.

    Installing the ribbon cables

    Connect the X-Y and X-Z ribbon cables to the carriage.


    Install the Polymer Guiding Shield for the Y-Axis as shown in the picture on the right
    side.

    Assembling X-Y Axis

    Engage the X/Y-Carriage into the profile of the


    X-Axis.

    Engage the Y-Axis profile with the rollers


    from the X/Y-Carriage.

    Disassembling X-Y Unit

    Assembling X-Y Axis

    Form a natural bow with the Ribbon Cables


    including the FlexBand.

    Insert the clip in the cut-out - press


    firm to hold the cables in position.

    Disassembling X-Y Unit

    Assembling X-Y Axis

    Move the Y/Z Assembly to the left and right side and check from side of the X-
    Axis if the Ribbon Cables are centered and fully lined up with each other and the
    Flexband.

    Limitation of Repair

    When it comes down to the rollers there is a strict limitation. Do NOT touch the
    fixation.
    The rollers are matched with the side distance against the Guide Rods in the X-Y-
    Assembly.
    The Unit can take damage within a few months if the alignment is too hard.
    The alignment can only be done in the factory using a dedicated setting gauge.

    Limitation of Repair

    Toothed Rack should not moved in position neither for the X-Axis nor for the Y-Axis
    Assembly.
    The play of the Pinions from the X- and Y- Motors is matched to the Toothed Rack.
    Uncontrolled changes can lead to destruction of the Assembly.
    In any case where an adjustment seems necessary is it advisable to contact CTC
    Analytics.

    A single ribbon cable or a position sensor PCB are individually available.

    Testing X-Y Axis

    Install the Injection Unit to the X-Y-Assembly.


    Power up the PAL System.
    Test Sensors.
    Test Motors.
    Run an Endurance Test.
