Installing Mdt And Slk; Mounting The Mdt On The Workpiece Pallet; Mounting The Slk On Transfer Section Profiles - Bosch Rexroth ID 40 Manual

3 Installing MDT and SLK

3.1 Mounting the MDT on the workpiece pallet

Please observe ID 40/MDT assembly instructions 3 842 527 943.
Prior to mounting the MDT on a workpiece pallet, drill two M3 threaded holes into
the carrying plate using the included drilling template. Now attach the appropriate
mounting base onto the workpiece pallet. Mounting bases are included for all standard
workpiece pallets for Bosch Rexroth transfer systems (TS 1, MTS 2, TS 2 plus and
TS 4 plus) as well as for any workpiece pallet with a level carrying plate.
Slide the MDT into the mounting base guide and fasten it down with the included
screw. This ensures the MDT is mounted in stable fashion.
Do not use the MDT as a "handle" for the workpiece pallet. The weight of the
workpiece pallet can damage the fastener or the MDT itself.
The MDT can be mounted onto the workpiece pallet plate in various positions. This
flexibility arises from the fact that the MDT is readable from three sides (front,
right and left). However, the vertical axes for both the SLK and the MDT have to run
parallel to each other. The gap dimensions (or read/write distance) between the
MDT and the SLK have to be observed for proper data transmission (see Chapter 13
"Technical data").
The MDT can also be mounted on the underside of the workpiece pallet. When doing
so, make sure that the MDT cannot come into contact with any section elements
while the workpiece pallet is in motion. This can damage the MDT.

3.2 Mounting the SLK on transfer section profiles

Use the included mounting kit to mount the SLK on the Bosch section profiles ST 1,
ST 2 and ST 4. This will ensure the specified distance between MDT and SLK. An
illustrated assembly guide is also included.
