12.2 Screw tightening torques

Tightening torques for guideways and carriages

DANGER!

Risk to life posed by falling machine elements!

If the strength of the screw connection is not sufficient to securely fasten the guideway or carriage, they may fall down.

  • Profiled driven guideways should be secured using all available mounting holes and screws.
  • In the case of high loads, employ constructive measures to prevent guideways or carriages from falling should the base fail.
  • The recommendations of the screw suppliers must be followed.
  • Ensure that the material strength of the connecting structure is sufficient.

DANGER!

Risk to life posed by falling machine elements!

The friction coefficient μ can be reduced by up to "half" when greases are used and screws can fail during tightening. The torques must be reduced accordingly.

Lubrication of the fastening screws with grease and tightening using a torque wrench enables a more even preload force to be achieved. This results in a marked improvement of running accuracy.

μK = 0.12 (coefficient of friction in head) in accordance with VDI 2230

Tightening torques for front plates and additional wipers

See the table below for maximum tightening torques for fastening screws for the front plates.

DANGER!

Risk to life posed by falling machine elements!

Screws for securing front plates are provided with threadlocker. The adhesive force of the threadlocker is reduced by repeated screwing and unscrewing, which can lead to unwanted loosening of the screw and loosening of the front plate during operation.

  • Do not re-use fastening screws several times.
  • Ensure that new fastening screws are used when replacing components.

NOTE: SCHNEEBERGER recommends KP2K lubricating grease in accordance with DIN 51825, or GP00N/GP000N liquid grease in accordance with DIN 51826.

  • The specified lubricant volumes are valid for both grease and liquid grease.
  • During greasing, move carriages three times their length several times.
  • If there are two lube connections per carriage, the specified quantity should be divided accordingly.
  • When using GP000N liquid grease, the installation orientation of the axis must be taken into account (separate connection).

Lubrication with oil

Initial lubrication, amount of oil per carriage (cm³)

BM carriage

BM 15 BM 20 BM 25 BM 30 BM 35 BM 45
Any installation position 0.2 0.5 0.6 0.9 1.1 1.2

NOTES:

  • SCHNEEBERGER recommends CLP mineral oil in accordance with DIN 51517 or HLP in accordance with DIN 51524, with a viscosity range from ISO VG32 to ISO VG100 (DIN 51519).
  • CGLP slideway oils can be used up to ISO VG220.

General information on lubrication

  • Inject the entire oil quantity in a single impulse, or in several short impulses in quick succession, while the carriage is being moved.
  • In the case of vertical installation of the carriage, the lube connection must be installed in the upper front plate.
  • If there are two lube connections per carriage, the specified quantity should be divided accordingly.
  • During greasing, move carriages three times their length several times.
  • Take note of the installation orientation of the axis (separate connection).
  • Carry out lubrication/cleaning strokes if necessary.
  • Lubricate before shutdown/recommissioning.
