Notes
CAUTION
Risk of injury during travel movements in the changer rack
area.
If the distance between the column of the bridge and the changer rack
is too small, there is a risk of jamming and crushing of the fingers.
— The changer rack must be installed such that there is a distance of at
least 25 mm between the changer rack and the column of the
bridge.
Exact changer rack alignment is necessary to enable trouble-free stylus
system change. The deviation must not exceed 0.1 mm over the total
length of the profile rail.
— Align the changer rack such that the deviation of the profile rail
does not exceed 0.1 mm.
NOTE
For the MSR changer rack certain points must be observed:
— The changer rack may only be used in connection with ZEISS coordi-
nate measuring machines.
— Only rack holders approved for use with ZEISS coordinate measuring
machines may be mounted.
— The rack holders must be located within the CMM travel range. Oth-
erwise the rack holders cannot be qualified.
Fastening the changer rack onto the measuring
table
The changer rack is usually installed on the measuring table at the rear
and parallel to the X axis. Alternatively, it may also be installed parallel to
the Y axis. It is important during installation to make sure that the
changer rack is completely aligned lengthwise.
The distance between the frame supports should be between 400 mm
and 1000 mm, depending on the size of the changer rack.
When mounting, proceed as follows:
1 Fasten the changer rack to the measuring table, - screws M12, DIN
912.
2 Loosen the lower set screws on both frame supports, two each per
support.
