DS - PRECISION WEDGE LEVELLING- 14a DATA SHEET Why Choose Precision Wedge Levelling Elements? WL-LEs provide a system of installation of large or heavy equipment which requires a very rigid connection to their foundations and which also require very accurate alignment for satisfactory performance; for example machines which are subjected to significant changes in load distribution during operation. Farrat Precision Wedge Levelling Elements (WL-LE) can be used for supporting and levelling machinery and equipment during construction, erection and operation. WL-LEs are the same basic form as standard Wedgemount but the top and bottom faces are precision machined to provide an accurate, rigid support for maximum stiffness. Features > Rigid Machine to foundation integration > Precision adjustment to obtain very fine alignment > Systemised heavy machine installation > A very high degree of machine bed stiffness (by conversion of support points from pivot support to a virtually fixed or built-in support) > A very tight connection between the machine and floor without distortion of the machine bed. The tighter the connection the more the concrete will integrate itself with the machine thus increasing the reinforcing effect of the concrete > Facility to carry out subsequent readjustments to alignment to correct foundation settlements and movements which may occur from time to time > Support for machines which are subjected to significant changes in load distribution during operation Typical Applications > Levelling and supporting heavy components on machine tool tables > Long bed machinery > Large boring and milling machines > Grinding machines > Transfer Machines > Rolling mills > Gas turbines > Large compressors > Nuclear reactors > Buildings and structures
