Basic Requirements for Servo Motor Storage
As precision devices, servo motors are susceptible to performance degradation or damage if stored improperly. The following are key precautions for storage:
Ambient Temperature and Humidity Control: The ideal storage temperature is -10℃ to 40℃, and humidity should be below 80% (refer to GB/T 7345-2008 General Technical Conditions for Control Motors). High temperature or high humidity environments will accelerate the aging of internal components and may even cause short circuits.
Dust and Corrosion Prevention: The motor should be stored in a clean, dust-free environment, avoiding contact with corrosive substances such as metal shavings and chemical gases. It is recommended to use a dust cover or seal it in the original manufacturer's packaging.
Avoid Mechanical Stress: The motor should be stored flat or vertically fixed. Stacking is prohibited to prevent bearing deformation.
Storage Recommendations for Special Environments
If the storage environment cannot meet the standard conditions, additional measures must be taken:
High Humidity Areas: Place a desiccant (such as silica gel, at a dosage of 5% of the motor's weight) inside the packaging and replace it regularly.
Low Temperature Areas: Allow the device to stand at room temperature for 24 hours before starting to prevent condensation from damaging the circuitry.
