Assembly 4.2.2 Turn control cam Turn control cam, example control cam for inductive monitoring Depending on the jaw stroke, it may be necessary to change the alignment of the control cam for the sensors IN 80 and RMS 80. In the image, the installation situation (A) shows the control cam in the delivery state of the product and the installation situation (B) shows the turned control cam.
The magnetic switch MMS 22-PI1 can be adjusted and taught in two ways. • "Standard mode" allows for quick installation on the T-nut preset by SCHUNK in the groove or the defined setting dimension "l1." • In "Optimal Mode", the sensor identifies the optimal position in the groove itself.
The switching point of the position "Gripper open" and "Gripper closed" have already been set by SCHUNK. If these positions are to be used, carry out the following: Slide the sensor 1 (1) into the bracket (2) until it stops.
Page 27
Assembly Turn the screw (5) to adjust the position of the control cam (6). Ø Slide control cam (6) inwards until the sensor 1 (1) no longer ✓ responds. Move the control cam (6) back towards the outside until the sensor 1 (1) begins to switch.
Assembly 4.2.6 Mount the magnetic switch MMS 22 CAUTION Risk of damage to the sensor during assembly! Observe the maximal tightening torque. • Position "Gripper open" or "Part gripped (I.D. gripping)" Bring product in the position to be set. Ø If necessary remove T-nut (3).
Assembly 4.2.7 Mount the programmable magnetic switch MMS 22-PI2 CAUTION Risk of damage to the sensor during assembly! Observe the maximal tightening torque. • NOTE If there is no T-nut available, slide the sensor according to dimension I1 into the groove (2), Setting dimensions for magnetic switches 25].
