Screws and locating pins
Notice | |
Ensure correct length of the screws and locating pins Make sure that the screws and locating pins have the correct length in order to obtain a flat tile surface and to avoid damage to the tile. Ensure correct tolerance of the locating pins The D5 locating pins must have an m6 tolerance. |
The length of the screws [1] and locating pins [2] for fixing the tiles depends on the height X of the machine bed [3].
Beckhoff recommends the following screw depths in the tile:
- The M6 screws [1] for fastening the tiles should protrude between 6 and 9 mm from the machine bed [3].
- The D5 locating pins [2] for fastening the tiles should protrude between 3 and 5 mm from the machine bed [3].
For further information on the maximum screw depths into the tile, please refer to the chapter on Dimensional drawings.
