Mounting Strain Links
To mount strain links, perform the following steps, referring to Figure 2-9 for mounting dimensions
Figure 2-9. Strain Link: Mounting Dimensions
1. Select locations on the press where you plan to mount the strain links.
On gap-frame (OBI or OBG) presses, strain links can be mounted on the front, where they
measure tension, or on the rear, where they measure compression (see Figure 2-10). The rear-
mounting option is often preferred because the strain links are away from the work area.
On straight side presses, strain links are typically mounted on both front and rear; they measure
tension, or stretching, of the frame. On 2-channel AutoSetPACs, strain links are mounted
diagonally–for example, one on the left front, one on the right rear (see Figure 2-11). On 4-
channel units, strain links are mounted on all four corners.
Sand down the frame’s surface to remove all paint or plastic filler, which will affect strain link
readings. Cast frames may need light grinding to provide a flat surface.
