Synchronising the iLMU
Synchronising Sets are used when two Linear Units are to be run in parallel.
item Synchronising Sets comprise couplings that are fitted between two Linear
Units and are connected by a Synchroniser Shaft that has been manufactured
in the appropriate length. This ensures that the end result is a highly custom-
ised and flexible design.
Synchronising Sets from item can be used to operate two Linear Units in paral-
lel with just one motor. They comprise shaft Couplings that are tailored to the
relevant Linear Unit and designed to compensate for slight misalignments and
withstand the stated torque over long-term use. The Couplings are pre-prepared
to accommodate a Synchroniser Shaft. Besides featuring a compact design,
expanding hub couplings are also easy to use. The friction-based connection is
created by tightening the central screw with the specified tightening torque. An
integrated pull-off thread makes them easy to dismantle. First, the central screw
is removed, then a longer screw is driven into the same position to effortlessly
relieve tension in the Coupling. How long a Synchroniser Shaft can be depends
on its operating speed. To determine the maximum length for a given speed
or the maximum speed for a given length, please consult the information
contained in the diagrams.
