GEARBOX ASSEMBLING OPTIONS
Motor and gearbox can be assembled on the machine in different ways, according to the design
of the machine.
All gearboxes, except CE20, have a centering di fixing holes on the front flange (for
"flange mounting") and feet with holes (for "feet mounting") - see Chapter 1.
CE20 has no feet, so it can only be assembled as "flange mounting".
If the motor is long and/or heavy, in order to reduce the vibrations, it is strongly suggested
to additionally fix the motor by means of its feet.
In this case, use shims under the motor feet (shown in red color - upon customer's supply),
that must be adapted by grinding, after checking their thickness during assembling
operations.
Below are the options available.
"Gearbox flange mounting"
"Gearbox flange mo motor feet"
"Gearbox feet mounting"
"Gearbox feet mo motor feet"
Only if the motor is very heavy and the radial loads on the gearbox output side are not high, this solution
can be used as well.
Do not use this solution if the load "F" on the output side of the gearbox is high (e.g.
with Poly-V belts)! The motor feet may not be dimensioned for holding high forces.
