Removal
► Use the software or manually move the conveyor rail into a position which allows you best ac-
cess.
– To move the conveyor rail manually, pull the toothed belt of the width adjustment unit.
► Switch off the machine, disconnect it from the power supply and secure it to prevent
unauthorized reactivation. Observe the instructions in section 1.2 "Preparatory Work..." [}15].
► Move all gantries out of the transport area as far as possible at one side of the machine.
► Loosen the movable idler pulley.
CAUTION
Loosen the movable idler pulley only as far as necessary!
► Do not remove the movable idler pulley. Otherwise the T-slot nut on the inner side will
fall into the conveyor rail.
► Carefully unthread the belt drive.
Installation
► Follow the removal instructions in reverse order for installation. Also observe the following in-
structions:
CAUTION
Installation instructions
► Check the new toothed belt before fitting it. Hold it up high. It should hang loose and
should not twist.
► Do not bend or damage the toothed belt.
► Make sure that the toothed belt is positioned accurately in the guidance on the motor
shaft or in the belt drive.
► When you tighten the idler pulley, set the tension of the toothed belt (see below).

7.5.2 Belt Tension
The precalculated values for setting the belt tension can be found in the following chapters.
In addition, the value for any section of the conveyor belt can be calculated using a formula
(see 7.5.2.2 "Calculating the Belt Tension" [}160]).

Pulling out the COT insert
To gain better access to the various screws, you may need to pull the COT insert out a
little.

► Check the belt tension at the relevant measuring point.
► If the belt tension is not correct, adjust the movable idler pulley.
CAUTION
Do not let the T groove nut fall into the conveyor wall!
► Do not remove the movable idler pulley completely, to make sure that the grooved nut
does not fall into the conveyor wall.
► Repeat the measurement four times.

7.5.2.2 Calculating the Belt Tension
NOTICE
For conveyor belt only
This calculation only applies to the conveyor belts of SIPLACE TX machines.
Fig.217: Measuring the distance
► Define the two idler pulleys between which you
want to set the belt tension. If possible, do not
use the movable idler pulleys.
► Measure the distance between the two idler pul-
leys parallel to the conveyor belt. (see dia-
gram)
CAUTION!
Note that it is not always possible to simply
measure the distance between the idler pulleys
from center to center.
.
► Calculate the belt tension using the following for-
mula:
(15000 / idler pulley spacing [mm]) [Hz]
The permissible tolerance is always plus/minus 10%
of the calculated value.
Example
Distance between the idler pulleys: 235mm
Calculation:
15000 / 235 = 64 (rounded, exactly 63.829…)
10 % von 63.829… = 6 (rounded, exactly 6.3829…)
Result:
Belt tension: 64 +/- 6 Hz
