Content:
– Remove burrs and particles from base mounting surface using oil stone and rag
– Place the straight edge in the middle of base
– Confirm the straightness of rail mounting shoulder (Repeat for the other side)
– Confirm the straightness of rail mounting surface (Repeat for the other side)
– Clean linear guide rail mounting surface
– Mount the linear guide rail
– Install rail mounting bolts loosely
– Install the shoulder plates loosely, then tighten with specified torque
– Torque down rail mounting bolts. Follow the correct tightening sequence. Confirm the straightness (lateral) of master rail.
– Confirm the 2nd rail straightness (lateral) and parallelism (lateral) against master rail.
– Confirm the height error between master rail and 2nd rail.
– If you don´t have straight edge, check parallelism of master and 2nd rail using the following method.
– Attach moving table. Check that the table moves smoothly.
– Confirm the straightness (vertical) at table center, make sure it is within your requirements.
