6.1

preparing the lathe

The lathe should be equipped with a special ring or
brackets, supporting the distributor in centric and
non-contact position with the chuck, as well as the
adapter plate (for chuck mount). The operator should
get these elements by himself or order.
Stiffly and permanently mount the ring or brackets
onto the lathe spindle or spindle bearing cover; the
adapter plate on the spindle end. The adapter plate
requires two I.D. holes of Ø14mm for the safety valve
pin output (the holes spacing according to drawings
provided in this manual).
After installation, the ring or brackets, and adapter
plate should meet the conditions indicated in Fig. 16.
The workstation should be equipped with the
compressed air connection, that contains a connecting
block and shut-off valve (block valve).
The control system and tooling operator should get
by himself or order.
For controlling, use the 2-way 3-position valve
located in a mid-position, connecting the chamber to
the atmosphere. (Fig. 17).
!
NotE: the manufacturer does not provide any pneumatic equipment, proximity switches that work
with chuck control devices as well as any parts working with proximity switch devices.

■ lift the chuck up via hoist and an eyebolt,
■ place the distributor onto the chuck,
■ center the spindle towards to chuck, so that
the safety valve pin catches the adapter
plate I.D. holes of Ø14mm,
■ mount the chuck to the adapter plate,
■ mount the pressure distributor,
■ check, whether during the rotation the chuck
is not rubbing the pressure distributor, if it
does then needs to be centered,
■ when dismounting from the lathe, please
