The bearing technology used - rotary iglidur® bearing bushes as well as drylin® linear technology - has been fulfilling the high requirements in various KHS systems for around twenty years. What is new, however, is that the customer not only purchases the bearings, but also completely ready-to-install functional components. Numerous examples of this can be seen in the Innoket Neo roll-fed station:
Height adjustment of the cutting mark sensor
For example, the height adjustment of the cutting mark sensor**(see image 1 below**). Until now, KHS has always assembled this function itself from numerous parts. Now they are completely supplied by us: with linear adjustment option, clamping, scale tape measure and fastening for mounting. The basis is a drylin® W-linear guide type WS-10-40.
Return rollers of the label guide
A second example are the deflection rollers for the label guide through the roll-fed station**(Fig. 2**). The rollers - which are of course also lubrication-free and corrosion-resistant - are fitted with xiros polymer ball bearings (Fig. 3). The roller material was selected in practical tests to ensure exactly the desired frictional resistance.
Adjustment of the worktable
Another complete system is the horizontal adjustment of the entire worktable. This is used to adjust the distance between the roll-fed station and the basic machine. The adjustment is made by hand crank using a drylin® SLW threaded spindle(Fig. 4). The rear guidance was designed with drylin® W-linear guide type WSQ-16**(Fig. 5**). And an energy chain from the E2/000 series is responsible for the flexible supply of energy, signals, vacuum and compressed air to the labelling station**(Fig. 6**).
