Foundation Anchoring Procedure
An ideal foundation is given on the following pages. This foundation must be used if the existing floor cannot meet the minimum
requirements to support the machine.
The foundation must consist of a single, homogeneous slab. The foundation must be level to within 0.032" / ft. Anchoring the
Vipros 357 Queen to the floor using the anchor-bolts supplied is essential to ensure reliable performance. Amada generally
recommends that the foundation have a minimum load bearing capacity of 3.5 ton/ft
2
. It is the purchaser’s responsibility to
determine that the foundation meets these requirements.
Please note the following:
!
The base plates, shims, anchor bolts, nuts, and washers are
shipped with the Vipros 357 Queen.
!
The concrete J-bolt pads should be filled after the machine
is placed on the foundation.
