1GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1 Important remarks
The following instructions will be used as technical documentation for the manufacturer of the
final machine. elcom is the supplier of this TLM 1500 transfer system sub-assembly .
The manufacturer of the final machine must make sure that:
-All safety equipment is provided and functional,
-Regular checks are carried out,
-All danger (pinching, squashing) due to moving parts is controlled,
-The documentation is complete.
1.2 Applicable standards
According to the 2006/42/CE European directive, elcom transfer systems are considered as partly
completed machines.
They are therefore not subject to an EC declaration of conformity but are the subject of a declaration
of incorporation. The latter is transmitted at the time of delivery, accompanied by the exploded view
of the motorized equipment.
However, the following standards are taken into account during the design and the manufacturing of
the elcom transfer systems:
×The European Machinery Directive 2006/42/CE
×The European Low Voltage Directive73/23/CE
elcom ensures an adequate follow-up and products quality formalized by the ISO 9001 certification.
For environmental reasons, elcom also meets the requirements of the ISO 14001 standards.
1.3 Applications
The elements of the linear TLM 1500 transfer systems are designed to carry and position workpiece
carriers according to the end customers’ configuration.
They are intended to be incorporated the customers' production line.
1.4 Conditions of use
The elements of the TLM 1500 transfer systems are suited for a use in normal industrial areas such as
a final assembly plant or equivalent, in a dry environment.
They are not suited for transporting materials such as sand, balls or grain.
The maximum load applicable on the transfer system is mentioned in the catalog and must never be
ignored.
To ensure a proper functioning of the transfer system on a maximum period of time, you must follow
this advice:
-Use temperature between 0 and 40°C (30 and 140°F)
-Avoid dusty or smoky atmosphere
-Avoid accumulation of sharp objects on the transfer system
-Avoid setting the machine in direct exposition to UV rays

1.5 Safety instructions
Safety rules regarding transfer systems, especially the ones regarding the electrical
devices, must be followed during all the use phases: mounting, transport, production.
Disregarding these rules would be regarded as a wrong use of the machine.
Using the transfer system in an explosive atmosphere can have a negative impact on the
transfer system and is strongly discouraged.
Never perform any maintenance on your own. Another worker must be present at all
time in order to shut the power down or perform first aid actions if needed.
Changing the motor position or removing security parts must only be done when the
transfer system is unplugged from any power supply.
When carrying maintenance or handling tasks while the transfer system is operating (belt
tension setting), take care not to slide your hand between the belt and the belt support
in order to avoid any accident.
All the different types of positioning units include several mobile parts driven by
pneumatic cylinders. Therefore, they must be well protected in the end-user machine in
order to avoid any risks of pinching or squashing. We recommand to mount a protective
housing around it.
1.6 Safety instructions regarding the motor
In case of a power failure, turn off the transfer system: it could restart automatically
when the power comes back which could cause damages and even injuries to the
operator.
1.7 Additional information
These instructions aim at ensuring the safety of the people and the proper functioning of the transfer
system. If you wish to use the transfer system in any other conditions, please do not hesitate to
contact us.

3COMMISSIONING
3.1 Receipt
When receiving the transfer system, check if the packaging has not suffered any damage and
that the machine is in perfect conditions.
The transfer system can be supplied in kit. It then needs to be assembled.
3.2 Transfer elements
When handling the equipment and parts, take special care to avoid shocks.
1. Assemble the parts according to the lay-out of the line with the delivered fastening parts,
2. Level perfectly the conveying units while checking that the belts are properly laid on the
belt guide,
3. Ensure the perfect stability of the whole line. To achieve this and according to the lay-out of
the line, it may be necessary to perform ground fastenings,
4. Check the settings of the motor magneto-thermic circuit breakers,
5. Check the running direction of the belt without any load,
6. Adjust the cams and the selectors using a workpiece carrier,
7. Start the transfer system with all the workpiece carriers on.
3.3 Stopper
1. Place the stopper right in the middle of the two profiles of the system,
2. Adjust the sensor for the detection of the workpiece carriers,
3. Adjust the flow control units.
3.4 Positioning unit
1. Put the positioning unit right in the middle of the two profiles of the system,
2. Adjust the sensor for the detection of the workpiece carriers,
3. Check on the high position that the pins of the workpiece carrier are free,
4. Lubricate the positioning units fingers with a fine layer of grease (see Maintenance),
5. Adjust the flow controllers.
All the different types of positioning units include several mobile parts driven by
pneumatic cylinders. Therefore, they must be well protected on the end-user machine
in order to avoid any risk of pinching or squashing. We recommend mounting a
protective housing.

3.5 Workpiece carrier
1. Check that the springs of the pins located under the carrier are working properly.
2. Check that no part goes over the lower surface of the workpiece carrier.
4MAINTENANCE
General visual check
Approximately every 500 hours, check the following points to ensure the proper functioning of the
transfer system:
4.1 Belts wear
Regularly verify visually the state of the belt and especially the welding area.
4.2 Passageways of workpiece carriers
The friction of the pins while operating can make some marks appear. Those marks may over the
long term require the part replacement.
4.3 Pins
Pins are sensitive to wear, especially if the load is heavy. Wear can be noticed as soon as a loss of
efficiency in the guiding of the workpiece carrier occurs.
4.4 Wear of the belt guide
Belt guide must be replaced as soon as wear marks or friction on the belt start to appear.
