6.1.2
Installation of the payload
For hard and stiff payloads (e.g. made from steel):
NOTICE!
If the aluminium slide is bent against a curved payload, the service life of the guide will be reduced.
•
Make sure that the mounting surface of the payloads is even to within t ≤ 0.01 mm. When using
additional slides, any differences in height must be compensated.

–
Position the payload in such a way that the break-down torque resulting from the force F (parallel
to the axis of motion) and the lever arm "a" remains low.

1. Mount the payload on the slide with the screws and centring sleeves.
2. Ensure that the tightening torques and the max. screw-in depth D are observed.
