ensure secure mounting, the clamping station must be fastened on
the machine table at all possible mounting points. With the NST3
500-300, the clamping modules mounted must be removed prior
to assembly in order to make the outer mounting locations
accessible.
NST3 set-up
Alternating ventilation for the clamping modules when
connecting and disconnecting the air supply at the clamping
station
When connecting the clamping station, it must be taken into
consideration that complete ventilation of the piston chambers in
all clamping modules during the locking process is only possible via
the air connection. For safe pressure ventilation, use the
appropriate valves, shut-off valves with discharge or sealing
nipples with ventilation.
Ensure that the connecting points of the clamping station are not
located in the water bath. For this reason, make sure the cooling
lubricant in the machine compartment has completely drained
when actuating the air connections.
For the clamping stations, piston chamber ventilation takes place
alternately at one of the two free air connections. The air
connections or connected supply lines must have a ventilation
option for this reason.
Connecting hose lines
Choosing the minimum cross section for the hose line depends on
the number of quick-change pallet modules installed inside one
clamping station or in several clamping stations actuated with
shared hose lines. Then, supply lines with the following minimum
cross sections must be used.
