Correct use method to ensure the service life of the indexer

For automation equipment manufacturers, in addition to meeting the use parameters, the product selection criteria are more concerned about the product life, because too small and medium-sized enterprises are mainly considering the cost performance when purchasing cam indexers. Of course, from the perspective of cost saving, the life of the product really means the value that the cam indexer can create. One factor that affects the service life of the cam indexer is the adjustment of the indexer during use. The cam indexer is a high-precision The processed parts are carefully assembled and adjusted by the manufacturer before leaving the factory. Due to its high precision, any improper adjustment method will affect the accuracy of the cam indexer. The change of accuracy will cause impact and noise, damage the cam indexer, and fail to reach the expected speed and bearing capacity, causing wear and shortening. The life of the cam indexer. So how to adjust the cam indexer?

1. First, after using for a period of time, the distance between the shafts needs to be adjusted:
After long-term use and wear of the cam indexer, there will be a gap in the positioning work area. In this case, the gap can be eliminated by adjusting the distance between the shafts. Another method is to synchronize the eccentric sleeves at both ends of the input shaft to eliminate the gap.
2. In addition, there will be deviations in the input and output shaft positions during production, which also need to be resolved through adjustments:
Adjust the lock nuts on both sides of the cam or the bearing glands on both sides of the input shaft to adjust the axial position of the cam indexer. The axial position of the split wheel can also be adjusted by adjusting the bearings on both sides of the output shaft or the lock nut at the rear end. In addition, it is necessary to remind all manufacturers that the cam indexer has been carefully adjusted by professional engineers before leaving the factory, and users are not allowed to adjust it privately to prevent misadjustment. If it is necessary to adjust during use, the better way is to contact the factory, which is also the protection of the product.
