Assembling Beams
Each beam section must be connected to the beam sections on either side of it to form the
complete system layout. The layout may be broken into sections for ease of assembly. When
breaking the layout into sections, ensure that each section is as self-contained as possible.
1.
Place two beam sections end-to-end, ensuring that both beam sections are colinear to
each other as shown in
.
2.
The beam section for the curve motors is not symmetrical, there is a top (empty T
groove) and a bottom (T groove has hardware securing the individual sections).
Ensure it is installed in the correct orientation.
3.
Apply Loctite 243 to two M8 x 25 mm screws and install and tighten the screws to
26 N-m [230 in-lb] using a 6 mm Hex bit.
NOTE:
The Loctite must cure for 2 hours at 22° C [72° F] before using the transport
system.

4.
Place the next beam section and align its end to the end of the previously assembled
sections, ensuring that both the new beam section and the assembled sections are
colinear to each other.
5.
Apply Loctite 243 to two M8 x 25 mm screws and install and tighten the screws to
26 N-m [230 in-lb] using a 6 mm Hex bit.
NOTE:
The Loctite must cure for 2 hours at 22° C [72° F] before using the transport
system.
