The installation carriage can be used to carry out the following installation work:
Alignment of the butt joints in the case of multi-part guide rails
1.
Position the carriage over the joint so that one of the two external fixing holes of
the guide rail is visible.
2.
Position the carriage over the fixing hole of the other guide rail and insert and
tighten the screw.
Adjusting the guide rails without lateral reference
1.
Pass the installation carriage gradually over the guide rail.
Ș
The lateral position is measured by laser or dial gauge.
2.
Place the carriage over the central guide rail fixing hole.
3.
Press the rail into the desired position.
4.
Introduce guide rail fastening screws into the guide rail from above via the central
fixing hole and tighten.
The installation carriage is available from SCHNEEBERGER as an accessory.
Danger!
Risk to life posed by falling machine elements!
Possible consequences include death and serious injury.
• Ensure that additional fall protection is provided.
• Never remove the front plate from MONORAIL BM.
• Rolling elements must under no circumstances be allowed to fall
out of the carriage.
• In order to prevent rolling element loss, always store and transport
carriages on transport/assembly rails.
Always keep carriages on the guide rail. Mount carriages onto and dismount
them from the transport rail using an assembly rail.
If optionally implementing paired systems, ensure that the carriages of different
guide rails are not interchanged.
In the case of carriages with a read head, always remove the read head before
mounting the carriage onto an assembly rail.
Protect individual carriages from dirt and the loss of rolling elements.
Always brace the locating surfaces of the carriage against the locating surfaces
of the mounting plate. The locating surface of the carriage is the side that has
been ground.
Arrange for reworking of front plates to alter the lube connection to be carried
out through SCHNEEBERGER.
Before mounting carriages onto the guide rail, remove the factory-applied
protective coating. In the case of repeated movement of the carriages back and
forth on the guide rail, protect wipers from damage caused by sharp-edged rail
fixing holes.
Always tighten fastening screws using a torque wrench (for tightening torques,
see „12.2 Screw tightening torques" on page 73).
