Mounting
Transmission elements
Fit or remove transmission elements only using suitable equipment.
•
For fitting the transmission elements use the center hole in the shaft.
•
Avoid impacts and shocks.
•
In case of a belt drive, tension the belt in a controlled manner according to manufacturer
•
information.
Be sure to carry out mounting in a manner free from distortion.
•
Compensate minor inaccuracies by suitable flexible couplings.
•
Fastening
Use screws with a minimum property class of 8.8.
•
Observe prescribed tightening torques.
•
Secure against unintended loosening.
•
For alternating loads, we recommend applying anaerobic curing adhesive between flange
•
and mounting surface.
Gearbox with hollow shaft and shrink disk
Use fitting grease in the area of the contact surfaces of machine shaft and hollow shaft
•
bore.
Be sure to carry out mounting in a manner free from distortion.
•
Lead forces only across the hollow shaft and not across the housing.
•
For axial fastening, use the snap ring grooves in the hollow shaft.
•
Proposed solution for axial fastening
Dismounting
Undo axial gearbox locking in the hollow shaft
•
Extract the gearbox from the motor shaft using an appropriate auxiliary tool
•
Proposed solution for dismounting
Gearbox with hollow shaft and shrink disc
NOTICE
▶ Never disassemble the new shrink disc.
▶ Thoroughly clean and degrease hollow shaft bore and machine shaft!
▶ Do not tighten clamping screws before the machine shaft has been inserted, the hollow
shaft may undergo plastic deformation.
▶ Cover the shrink disc during operation so that it is secured against contact by implementing
suitable measures (e.g. cover).
