Spring Mounted Sensor Holder Shx42 - Roland R1000 Series Manual

B0046991 / Rev. 1.6

Spring mounted sensor holder SHX42

Features:
• Very stiff in extended condition, for lateral acceleration up to 2g. Thus precise putting on the
sheet without canting, also on splayed sheets or bevelled TWB stacks.
• Very elastic in pressed condition and movable into all directions. Lateral motions of the sheet
being transported can thereby also be compensated up to approx. ±1 centimetre.
• No appearance of lateral forces, thus only minimal wear.
• Fast suction and releasing of the sheets due to small air volume under the suction hood,
compared to bellows suction cups.
• Same sealing gasket and burled plate as used with the Roland SHS42GS.
• Good access to the sensor from above, no counter-nut required.
• Fixing of sensor by lateral headless screw with plastic pressure pad.
Fix the sensor holder by using at least 2 of the M8 tap holes in the mounting plate. If required, use
a ball clamp mount of 28 ... 32 mm for Omni directional adjustment to the sheet surface (e.g.
Norgren Co., Springer Co.).
Lubricate the sensor thread very sparingly. Screwing the sensor from above until the sensor face is
positioned at half the height of the rubber burls. If the thread needs to be vacuum-tight, screw-in
the thread turns by using a permanently elastic sealing agent (Hylomar, Loctite). Fix sensor with
the set screw (M6).
Adjust the holder to a position lower than the suction cups carrying the sheet. When the sensor is
put on the sheet the holder must comply so much that (after being lifted) it remains pressed for
at least 10mm, for providing the necessary freedom for the belts. Only then the required
compliance is achieved. The holder may not carry loads. Only small, light weighted parts can be
directly transported with the sensor holder.
