Maintenance concept
Fast reaction in case of a module failure
You have the option to assemble the XTS in such a way that you
can replace individual supply segments in case of a failure. As a
result you do not have to dismantle the entire XTS system and you
can minimize the downtime and maintenance work.

With the standard assembly, all guide rails are connected with the
locating pins 1 and all individual modules with locating pins 2. The
goal of this maintenance concept is to generate individual ex-
changeable supply segments between supply modules 4 and mod-
ules without supply 3 so that each supply segment can be removed
individually from the complete system.

You have the option to generate exchangeable module segments by
not using the locating pins 1 and 2. As the locating pins 2 are miss-
ing on the cable side (front side) of the supply module 4, an individ-
ual supply segment can be completely removed from the XTS sys-
tem.
