NOTE
• Secure all screws with Loctite®. To do this, apply adhesive to
the exposed screw threads.
ð
Use adhesive only once. Always apply new adhesive if
reusing fastening elements.
• Mounted screws may not protrude above the surface! Select
screws so that they are flush with the surfaces and screw them
together without washers.
Evenness of the
mounting surface
The values apply to the whole mounting surface to which the
product is mounted.

Adapter plate
requirements
An adapter plate can be used for mounting the SWK on the robot
and the end effector on the SWA. An adapter plate is necessary if
the screw connection diagram of the SWS has to be adapted to the
customer's equipment (robot flange, end effector).
IMPORTANT! Only use adapter plates if they have bores and
recesses that match the product exactly. Precisely fitting
installation is a prerequisite for the function.
The adapter plate must meet the following requirements:
• The adapter plate requires bores for the mounting screws with
sufficient thread depth for mounting on the robot.
• The adapter plate requires centering recesses for dowel pins
with sufficient depth so that no gap is created during assembly.
• Depending on the robot flange, the adapter plate requires a
centering plate on the robot side and a centering recess at the
interface to the SWK robot side.
• Depending on the end effector, the adapter plate requires a
centering plate on the SWA tool side and a centering recess at
the interface to the end effector.
• For sizes with an external piston stroke control, the adapter
plate requires a recess adapted to the sensor outlet.
The catalog data sheet contains detailed information and precise
manufacturing instructions for possible adapter plate design.
NOTE
The mounting of the SWK with an external piston stroke control is
described in chapter
