Gantry Support Module Installation
Parallel Alignment Specifications
The gantry support block contains a spherical bearing and a lip seal. It is
factory-lubricated with cleanroom grease. Both the bearing and spindle interface surface
are lubricated. This design allows the gantry to operate with up to 0.5 mm of
mis-alignment with respect to the primary axis. The bearing will self-align and the gantry
spindle will slide axially within the bearing's inner race.
NOTE: The life of the LG6 gantry support module and the gantry support
assembly may be reduced if the parallelism specification (see
or nominal gap tolerances (see
measure the gap throughout the entire X-axis stroke to verify compliance.
