Standard units not to be used in an explosive environment. Any use of a rotary index table where safety may be in dou- bt is not permitted! Please contact Motion Index Drives be- fore using the index table in such an environment as to ensu- re electrical components are suited for specific environ- ments.
1.4. Installation Rotary index tables must be installed in accordance with regulations outlined in the documentation. The in- stallation position is user defined, and must be disclosed to MID when ordering the rotary index table. Check before installation that the delivery is complete and correct.
Alvania R2 fett H pound A Duration of Oil In general the oil in the Rt Series does not have to be changed. Please contact Motion Index Change Drives for detailed information regarding your application requirements. Grease All series larger than RT250 require monthly greasing. All over models RT250 and smaller are Intervalves completely maintenance free.
The rotary index table transforms a constant input drive motion into a constant output drive motion. The drive motion occurs by means of a flame or induction harde- ned and high-accuracy milled constant lead barrel cam. The use of mathematical laws of motion along with a properly programmed motor profile (see section 3.1)
ACCELERATION: This is the time the motor and index drive run from zero speed, 0 Hz, to a peak speed. The accelera- tion time should never be less than 0.5 seconds for a programmable index drive. Motion Index Drives will provide the acceleration time recommended for your VFD/Amplifier parameters.
Every month please lubricate using the bearing grease fittings on all TMF Series and models RT400 and larger. RT100 to TT315 in- dex drives are maintenance free (do not require gresing). Please lubricate bearing with EP2 grease. (See lubrication chart) Do not mix mineral lubricants with synthetic lubricants.

5.1 Removing the Cam Follower Start by removing the cap plug (item 70). Then use the cir- clip pliers to remove the retaining ring (item 60). After the hexagonal bolt (item 50, including 40 and 30) has been re- TORQUE TABLE moved, together with the two washers, an internal thread becomes accessible in the cam follower insert.
7. Transport The slinging equipment (see figure) must be attached in the threaded holes (see table and dimensions sheet) in the po- sitions shown in the figure and checked to ensure that it is work-ing correctly (see the instructions for the slinging equip- ment).
