Incorporating DLS and GV3 into MCS Framework Systems

Incorporating DLS and GV3 into MCS Framework Systems

Incorporating DLS and GV3 into MCS Framework Systems

Product catalog summary
Introduction
This document provides guidelines for incorporating Hepco DLS units and GV3 slide beams into Hepco MCS and other proprietary framework systems. It outlines the types of junctions, fixing brackets, and compatibility with various profiles.

Junction Types
There are five basic types of junctions for attaching DLS and SB units to a framework system. These junctions are illustrated in the document.

Fixing Brackets
Three basic types of fixing brackets are available in several sizes for connecting DLS and SB units to a framework system. These brackets are compatible with profiles from most other framework system manufacturers, provided the T slot opening and centers match Hepco MCS specifications.

Compatibility and Combinations
The document includes a table to determine possible combinations of fixing brackets and DLS/SB units for the required junction. It also references specific Hepco product catalogues for detailed information.

Profile and Bracket Compatibility
The document provides a compatibility table for various MCS profiles and brackets, indicating which combinations are possible and any limitations, such as bracket width exceeding the MCS section.

Application Recommendations
The lightweight DLS profile is recommended for high inertia Y-axis applications. X and Y-axis DLS units can be coupled in any size combination, with specific instructions for drilling and tapping fixing holes.

Mounting Methods
Two methods are described for attaching the Y-axis: the clamp method and the T-nut method. The document specifies the use of heavy-duty T-nuts for lightweight Y-axis profiles.

Multi-Axis Systems
Instructions are provided for joining DLS units to create multi-axis systems, including details on fixing clamps and additional holes required.

Joining DLS units together to make multi-axis systems The lightweight DLS profile may be preferable for high inertia Y axis applications. Please refer to Hepco DLS and GV3 catalogues. X and Y axis DLS units may be coupled together in any combination of size. Fixing holes must be drilled and tapped accordingly. For Z axis requirements please refer to Cantilever axis in DLS catalogue. Clamp method For attaching Y axis in orientation as shown.
