Assembly Conditions
The Force Measuring Rollers RMGZ 400B and RMGZ 600B are defined as “partly
completed machinery” according to the Directives 2006/42/EC, article 2. In
order to assure a proper functionality of the parts and guarantee the essential
health and safety requirements of operators working with it, the following
conditions for the assembly must be met:
Caution
The Measuring Rollers may not be stressed over the specification limits neither
during assembly nor operation. The unit’s overload protection value may not be
exceeded.
Caution
The attachment points for the Force Measuring Rollers on the machine frame
must be properly designed. The bearings need to be appropriately mounted.
Caution
For correct installation and operation, follow the electrical wiring diagram and
instructions in this manual.
3.2
Assembly Preparations
The Force Measuring Rollers RMGZ 400B and RMGZ600B are usually mounted
on a mounting bracket which is in turn installed on the machine frame or on the
rotating base plate of a stranding machine. The built-in flange on the force
measuring roller provides M8 thread holes for easier assembly. If mounting
brackets are used, they need to have mounting holes with a spline groove (see
drawing Fig. 1, detail A).
Mounting brackets and machine must be prepared for the installation of the
force measuring rollers. The
corresponding mounting holes must be drilled in the
machine frame.
Caution
If the RMGZ 400B/600B Force Measuring Rollers are used as a replacement for
their predecessor products RMGZ 400A/600A, the 4mm 0[.157“] position pin
must be replaced with the supplied pin ø3x5 [0.118“ x 0.197“].
