Fine-Adjust the Upper V-Rail
Fine-adjust the upper v-rail if the pallets make significant noise when traveling
over the upper v-rails. This diagram indicates the location of the components that
are referenced in this procedure.
1. Verify that all stand and wedge screws are tight.
2. Complete one (1) of the following:
• Run your finger over the upper
v-rail joint.
• Manually slide a pallet across the
upper v-rail joint in both directions
while you watch and listen to the
pallet.
3. If you feel a ridge, or if the pallet makes any knocking sounds as it rolls over
the upper v-rail joint, proceed to step 4; otherwise, the procedure is complete.
4. Determine which section is higher and by how much, and then complete
one (1) of the following:
• If the upper v-rail requires ±0.05 mm (±0.002 in.) adjustment, see
Adjust the Upper V-Rail ±0.05 mm (±0.002 in.) - Straight Section to
Straight Section
on page 104.
• If the upper v-rail requires >±0.05 mm (>±0.002 in.) adjustment, see
Specialized Upper V-Rail Adjustment - Straight Section to Straight
Section
on page 108.
The maximum vertical tolerance at the upper v-rail joint is 70 µm.
Upper v-rail alignment is an iterative process. Alternate between height
and wedge adjustments until the upper v-rail is flush and the sound is
consistent when a pallet is pushed past the upper v-rail join.
