Mechanical Installation
Most mechanical parts are pre-assembled, making installation quick and simple.
1.
When installing a foreign main material hopper on top of a neckpiece, the top flange of the neckpiece
needs to be adapted. The lid of the neckpiece can be dismounted for easy machining.
2.
•
Install the neckpiece directly on top of the
entrance of the production machine;
•
Install the neckpiece in a
90-degree
angle
to the machine barrel. This will optimize the
dosing accuracy
in relation to vibrations of
the production machine;
•
Make sure that the complete unit is mounted;
•
horizontally levelled
and fixed securely;
•
Assure proper grounding to control cabinet,
neckpiece and dosing unit.
3.
Connect the unit to the neckpiece by closing curled knob
clockwise.
Mount the unit in a 90-degree
angle to the machine barrel,
as shown in the picture.
Horizontally leveled (MCMicro
