Wear calculations
The wear of the components can then be calculated.
The chain wear can be different on the two measuring points:
• Wear
chain_top
= Measure_Nominal
Chain_top
– Measure_Inspection
Chain_top
• Wear
chain_tab
= Measure_Nominal
Chain_tab
– Measure_Inspection
Chain_tab
The slide rail wear can be different on the two measuring points. Due to the fact that it is hard to
measure the slide rail itself these wear values has to be calculated from two measurements.
• Wear
slide_rail_top
=
= Measure_Nominal
Gap_top
– Measure_Inspection
