When higher loads are involved, it is advisable to secure the Shaft. Ideally, a
Combination Drilling Jig (c) should be used to machine the Shaft, Shaft-Clamp
Profile and Support Profile as detailed in the following steps:
▪
Using a carbide drill, cut a blind hole in the Shaft, 40 mm from the end face
(as shown in the drawing)
▪
At the same distance from the end face, cut a through hole (d) through the
Shaft-Clamp Profile and Support Profile together, up to the centre bore of
the Support Profile
▪
Press dowel pin (b) DIN 6325 into the Shaft
▪
Install the Shaft into the Shaft-Clamp Profile as described above

b = DIN 6325-4x24 dowel pin
c = Order No. 0.0.444.68 for Shaft D10
d = ⌀4 mm
Shaft-Clamp Profile and Shaft D10:
There are various methods for assembling support profile, Shaft-Clamp Profile
and Shaft.
To make installation easier, apply a film of oil or grease to the outer surfaces
of the Shaft-Clamp Profile that come into contact with the support profile be-
fore pressing it into the groove. Do the same to the contact points between the
Shaft and Shaft-Clamp Profile and to the guiding Shaft itself. When working
with short support profiles that have not yet been connected to a fixture, it is
advantageous to undertake installation in the following steps:
▪
Press the Shaft-Clamp Profile into the relevant groove of the support profile
▪
Use a vice (fitted with protective jaw plates) to press in the Shaft
▪
Follow the same sequence for the other side

Fundamentally, a Linear Unit converts a rotary motion into a translational
motion.
A Linear Unit is made up of:
▪

Drive
▪
Support profile
These components are picked for assembly and assembled in part or in full,
depending on customer wishes.
