3.4.1 Fitting the Short End Position Buffer
The short end position buffer must be fitted in SIPLACE SX machines with two gantries. This buffer
needs to be removed and replaced with the long end position buffer in SIPLACE SX machines with one
gantry at location 1.
► Carefully place the flat ribbon cable (1) and the pneu-
matic connections (2) over the gantry.
► Remove the black plastic foil. A cable tie fixes the
black plastic foil to the trailing cable (1).
► Fit the end position buffer (2) to the left side.
► Fit the end position buffer (3) to the right side. The
safety switch (4) for the buffer monitoring function
must engage in the Schmersal switch.
► Tighten the fastening screws (1) for both buffers.

3.5 Connecting the Trailing Cable
► Remove the cover (1) over the gantry interface. To do
this, loosen the two fastening screws on the right side
and carefully open the bottom left pushbutton.
► Fit the trailing cable holder (1) from below, to the gan-
try distributor holder. See the following section.
► Carefully place the flat ribbon cable and the pneumat-
ic hoses to one side (2).
► Make sure you do not damage the cables and hoses.
► Take care that the alignment is correct and that all ca-
bles and hoses are run above one another and even-
ly.
NOTICE!
When fitting the trailing cable, make sure that the heat-
shrinkable sleeve (1) protects the flat ribbon cable under
the Y sensor module holder.

Trailing cable holder - overview
Restore the electrical and pneumatic connections
1. Two hexagon spacer bolts M4 x 10 mm.
2. Gantry board holder
3. Trailing cable holder
► Loosen the two hexagon spacer bolts M4 x 10 mm on
the trailing cable holder.
► Hold the trailing cable holder from below, on the gan-
try board holder.
► Screw the two hexagon spacer bolts from above, into
the trailing cable holder.
► Secure the two hexagon spacer bolts with Loctite
241.
► First connect the 7 flat ribbon cables (1) to the boards
for the gantry interface of the X axis (3) and the gantry
interface of the Y axis (4). The sequence depends on
the different cable lengths. Work your way from back
to front.
► Remove the dummy plugs from the pneumatic hose
couplings.
► Connect the four pneumatic connections for the trail-
ing cable to the gantry connections (2). The se-
quence depends on the different hose lengths..
