Technik · Technology Kugelrollen-Abstand Die Teilung wird errechnet, indem das kleinste Bodenmaß der Last durch 3,5 dividiert wird. Beispiel: Wenn die kleinste Auflagefläche 350 mm lang ist, ergibt sich 350 : 3,5 = 100 mm Kugelrollen-Abstand. Dieses garantiert, dass sich mindestens 3 Kugelrollen unter der kürzesten Auflage befinden. Spacing The pitch is calculated by dividing the narrowest dimension by 3,5. I.e. if the narrowest dimension is 350 mm divided by 3,5 = 100 mm pitch between ball centres. This ensures 3 ball units are always beneath the narrowest dimension of the load at any one time....
