FINALIZE CONVEYOR ASSEMBLY

DRIVE AND IDLE END COMPONENTS

Assess the drive and idle component placement based on the "Conveyor Frame Dimension
1.
Guidelines" in the ThermoDrive Technology Engineering Manual at www.intralox.com.
Reassemble or install new idle end components as needed to meet the design requirements.
2.
Install a ThermoDrive-compatible drive end solution that meets the design requirements.
3.
Keep heat away from plastic components. Remove or cover nearby belting, containment
blocks, and wearstrips during welding to avoid surface damage.

NOTE: To lower wearstrips up to 0.5 in (13 mm) near the drive or idle shaft, see "Wearstrip Notching Procedures" on

CARRYWAY AND RETURNWAY COMPONENTS

Install returnway components like shafts, support rails, rollers, and shoes. See the Intralox
1.
ThermoDrive Technology Engineering Manual at www.intralox.com for design guidelines.
Inspect the carryway and returnway for possible belt catch points.
