Integrated measuring system IMS for ball and roller rail systems

Integrated measuring system for ball and roller rail systems  New features at a glance Modular, multi-part guide rails for IMS-A The possibility of modular joints allows multi-part IMS-A rails to be configured very easily. This makes it possible to create rail tracks > 4500 mm (Page 24). IMS-A interface DRIVE-CLiQ® with acceleration data With the new ordering option "D4," in addition to the position data, acceleration data from the integrated MEMS sensor in the X/Y/Z direction can be cyclically read out and transmitted to SIEMENS controllers. This makes it possible to implement fundamentally...

Integrated measuring system for ball and roller rail systems! Product overview Runner block Runner block with mounted adapter plate and mounted scanner ► Same mounting hole pattern and connecting dimensions as standard runner blocks. ► An adapter plate allows the scanner1 to be replaced during servicing without removing the runner block. 1) See the next chapter for more information. Scanner fastening screws must be accessible. There must be sufficient room to pull the scanner over the rail end. Guide rail Guide rail with integrated steel scales ► Same mounting hole pattern and connecting dimensions...

Integrated measuring system for ball and roller rail systems The Rexroth ball and roller rail systems are available with fully integrated inductive length measuring system. The length measuring system consists of a scanner, a scale, reference marks, and the absolute code band. The scanner with sensors is mounted on the runner block. As it travels over them, it evaluates the scale, the reference marks or the absolute code band integrated in the guide rail. This mechatronic system combines the functions of guidance and measurement into one unit and opens up new, ideal opportunities in machine design....

Technical data | Integrated measuring system for ball and roller rail systems 11 Loads due to forces and moments on the runner block The forces acting on the system are distributed among the runner blocks depending on the arrangement. The loads caused by forces and moments resulting from the effective forces need to be calculated for each runner block when performing the life expectancy calculation. All load calculations assume an infinitely rigid mounting base and an infinitely rigid structure. The life expectancy calculation for the IMS is analogous to the calculation of the life expectancy...

Integrated measuring system for ball and roller rail systems | Technical data  Description and technical data of scanner (IMS-I / IMS-A) Scanner on the The basic construction of the scanner is explained using the example of a ball runner block. runner block The construction of the scanner on the roller runner block differs only slightly. The scanner is secured to the runner block via the adapter plate. It is no wider or taller than the runner block. The hole pattern of the fastening bores of the runner block also remains unchanged. Advantage: The fastening of the runner block to the connection...
