Always pay attention to the following when transporting and storing MONORAIL: • Transport may only be carried out by persons who are authorized and trained by the product manufacturer.
  • Page 7: Preparing The Locating Sides

    Preparing the locating sides 1. Check the locating sides of the machine bed and mounting plate for dimensional and position accuracy. If these do not meet the requirements, have the locating sides reworked. Locating side, mounting plate Locating side, carriage Locating side, machine bed Locating side, rail 2.
  • Page 8: Determining Installation Variants

    Determining installation variants Different installation variants are recommended, depending on the requirements for the accuracy and the rigidity of the rails. These differ by way of customer- specific locating sides and therefore by way of the lateral guide. Four typical installation variants are described in more detail below: •...
  • Page 9: Installation

    Always clamp the rails with their locating side against the locating side of the machine bed. The locating side of the rails is on the side facing away from the name SCHNEEBERGER and the type number. • For high running accuracy and a good screw head position, grease the contact surface and the thread of the fastening screws with grease containing •...

    7. Slide the mounting plate with the carriage backwards and forwards and tighten the fastening screws of the unsecured rail securely next to the carriage, see section 6.1. 8. Securely screw on the mounting plate. Installation variant 2 1. Clamp both rails against the locating sides and securely screw them into place, see section 6.1.
  • Page 12: Installation Variant 3

    Installation variant 3 1. Clamp the reference rail against the locating side and screw it securely into place, see section 6.1. Reference rail Opposite rail 2. Align the opposite rail parallel and provisionally secure it. 3. Place the mounting plate onto the carriages and gently tighten all fastening screws.
  • Page 13: Installation Variant 4

    1. Run off the carriages, see section 8.2, with one mounting rail in each case for MONORAIL MR. When doing so, note that carriage and rail belong together. 2. Clamp the locating side of the carriage (ground side) against the locating sides of the mounting plate and screw securely into place.
  • Page 14: Completing Assembly

    Completing assembly Fitting the screw cover In the case of MONORAIL BM, the fastening screws on the rails can only be covered with plastic plugs or cover strips. Plastic or brass plug Place the plugs onto the retaining holes of the rails and knock them in straight.
  • Page 15 Notes • Thread connection on the hydraulic cylinder ¼" – 18 NPT, max. pressure: 120⋅10³ hPa (= 120 bar). • To close the outermost rail bore holes, push out the hydraulic mounting tool over the end of the rail. Cover strip MAB/BAB Cover strips can consist of several parts.
  • Page 16 Fix the cover strip onto the edges by applying gentle pressure. – In the case of multi-part cover strips, position and attach the next cover Multi-part cover strips – strip without any seams. In the case of multi-part rails, the cover strips and rails are not of the same –...
  • Page 17: Removing Assembly Protective Film For Additional Wipers (Optional) For Monorail Mr

    Removing assembly protective film for additional wipers (optional) for MONORAIL MR Carriages with additional wipers ZAN/ZAV for MONORAIL MR are supplied with an assembly protective film if the rails are screwed from above and the fastening holes are covered with plugs. The assembly protective film protects the sealing lips during assembly and must not be removed until the fastening holes of the rails are closed.
  • Page 18: Lubrication

    Changes to the lubrication connections on the front plate of the carriages must be carried out by SCHNEEBERGER. Installing the bellows FBM (optional) for MONORAIL MR The bellows FBM protects a rail or a rail train. An adapter piece is required for rails with a magnetic scale.
  • Page 19 4. Slide the bellows (5) onto the rail so that the trapezoidal bellows section runs exactly in the rail groove provided. Bellows 5. Engage the rivet plugs on the end of the bellows into the corresponding holes (4) of the adapter plate. 6.

    Clean dirty rails with a soft, lint-free cloth or fabric cloth. Do not use compressed air! Running the carriage on and off the rail MONORAIL MR To make sure that the rollers do not fall out of the carriages, run the carriage on and off only with the mounting rail MRM! The carriages are pushed onto the rails and form a unit together with the rail.
  • Page 21: Replacing The Additional Caoutchouc Wiper

    MONORAIL BM No mounting rail is required to run the carriage on and off. The carriages are pushed onto the rails and form a unit together with the rail. To maintain the required tolerances, do not interchange the carriages of different rails with each other.
