Two KLEs are synchronised by connecting Drive Units KLE using a Synchronis-
ing Set and the corresponding tube.
The Synchronising Sets include all components required for connecting two
Compact Linear Units.
The Synchronising Set contains:
▪
2 Coupling Halves KLE Al
▪
2 Coupling Halves for tube clamping
▪
2 Coupling Inserts
▪
Hexagon Socket Head Cap Screws St, bright zinc-plated
When designing the synchronised Linear Units, the drive speed and distance
between the Linear Units are key criteria.
Synchronising two Linear Units KLE
Press the Coupling Insert into place.
Next, screw the Coupling Housing to the Drive Unit KLE.
Insert Coupling Half KLE centrally into Drive Unit KLE and screw it into place.
When doing so, the Coupling Half must be secured to prevent it from turning.
Tightening torque for the fastening screw in the Coupling Half:
KLE 6 60x60: M6 = 10 Nm
KLE 8 80x80: M8 = 20 Nm
The question of whether a machined Coupling Housing or a machined adapter
plate is used for connecting the motor depends on the geometry of the gearbox
or motor (Table 8).
The longer screws can be used to screw on Coupling Housing KLE.
