SECTION 4: Installation (continued)
4.1.10.2. If the indexer has a drive code which causes multiple indexes per
camshaft revolution (i.e. X2, X3, etc… drive codes), additional lobe(s) on
the Brake Cam are required. The lobes will be equally spaced.
Therefore, phasing the one lobe of the Brake Cam to one dwell period
on the indexing cam will, in most cases, cause the other lobes to be
correctly phased with the other dwell periods.
NOTE: Controllers are normally shipped loose and brake cam / limit switches are
mounted to the unit. However, neither are set or adjusted at the factory. Controller
must be set for load & speed of the application per instruction in the vendor’s
manual. The limit switch and brake cam must be set so as to initiate the stopping
cycle and result in an on station stop (somewhere in the cam’s dwell period).
NOTE: The switch and brake cam commonly provided to initiate the stop cycle can
not be used to indicate “on station.” A second switch and brake cam should be
ordered for this purpose.
