The adjusting unit is the pneumatically actuated core component of an adjustable lateral guide and adapts the complete guide quickly to changing product formats. It is particularly suited to conveyors that are difficult to access during operation, since the mounting and adjustment mechanism is placed beneath the conveyor.
The adjustable lateral guide is assembled from the adjusting unit, the mounting set (3842547718) and components of the lateral guide range. Mounting and adjustment are also possible in horizontal and vertical curves; in horizontal curves a customer-side adjustment is required.
- Synchronous, even adjustment of several units
- Pneumatic actuation via a 4/2 directional control valve, up to 8 units per valve
- Returns to the start position after 16 switching cycles
- Customer-side position query recommended
