6) The driveline from the motor to the index unit input shaft should be rigid and
nobacklash. A backlash may cause a shock during the dial plate rotation,
shorten the service life of the unit, and/or damage parts.
(1) Do not use another input shaft in series between the motor and the Pick and
Place Unit input shaft. If used, it should be sufficiently rigid.
(2) When directly connecting the Pick and Place unit input and reduction shafts
with a coupling, use a coupling of no backlash and easier to adjust alignment.
(If the space permits, a model that the Pick and Place unit and reducer are
integrated may be used.)
