When fitting the slide rails with rivets, the instructions on page 24 must be
followed.
• The joints on the slide rails must have a distance of 100 mm be-
tween them. The joints should be laid out as in the picture, se
page 18 for reference, with a gap of approx. 10 mm between the
rails.
• Joints may not be positioned in bends, or in the transition be-
tween two beam sections
• Slide rails should be mounted with the longest continuous run
possible, but taking into account beam cuts, for transport purpos-
es.Every slide rail cut is a potential source for noise and dust.
• The inner slide rail after a wheel bend must be cut so that the cut
surface is parallel to the wheel. In front of the wheel bend, the
slide rail will normally be cut at 45°.
NB: Check the final slide rails visually, as well as running a section of
conveyor chain through the installation.
An alternative to the aluminium rivets, is to use the plastic screws XLAG 5.
See page 25 for fitting instructions. The holes for the plastic screws are
threaded with a tap.
3.10.2 Installation of Slide rails - instruction
Fixing slide rail to the conveyor beam
The beginning of each slide rail section must be fixed to the beam, since
the chain will cause the slide rail to be pushed forward. Slide rail which
moves into a wheel bend or a drive unit can block the chain completely.
There are two different methods for fixing slide rail to the conveyor beam:
using aluminium rivets or plastic screws. Either method can be used, but
the riveting method is more secure if the conveyor will run with high oper-
ational speed or be heavily loaded.
After drilling, remove the drill fixture and countersink the holes so each riv-
et head is under the slide rail surface before riveting.
