3. Start up
3.1 Gear function
HEINZ gears form a compact, robust unit which, through the use of accurately calculated disk
cams, enable the transformation of a constant input speed into an optimum, precise and
impact-free (intermittent) output movement.
The cam rollers fitted in the turret are guided precisely in the curve by the hardened and ground
cam path.
This cam path is formed with a variable slope and is divided into a dwell angle and index angle
area. When the cam is rotated, the precise jolt and impact-free movement of the output shaft is
produced by the cam path and the cam follower. As the cam course is constructed standard
symmetrically.
The dwell angle area has a zero slope. Through this, the cam followers result in a precise, self-
locking positioning of the output shaft without an additional locking mechanism.
When a brake motor is employed, the positioning of the output shaft is independent on the
braking accuracy of the motor as the accurate positioning is dictated by the position of cam
followers in the dwell angle area. The whole dwell angle area is available for braking (see 3.3).
3.2 Oil level
The oil level should be checked before start up. It is sufficient it the oil can be observed through
the oil level indicating glass (see also 4.3 gear)
