or radial displacement value. If you are using couplings supplied by other manufacturers, contact them and ask them for the maximum permissible misalignment tolerances, making sure that you specify the po- tential radial loads for your application. The following diagram shows the possible displacements: 5DGLDOPLVDOLJQPHQW . $QJXODUPLVDOLJQPHQW . /DWHUDOPLVDOLJQPHQW . . . . Figure5-6: Possible displacements Assembly 5.5 Connecting components B5-0 en Edition 0/2 5Alignment Alignment must be carried out in two axis planes that are vertical with respect to one an- other. This is possible using rulers (radial offset) and feeler gauges (angular offset) as shown in the diagram. You will achieve greater degree of alignment accuracy by using dial gauge or laser alignment system. The diagram below shows the alignment process based on the example of flexible coup- ling: Figure5-7: Alignment process based on the example of flexible coupling Ruler Measuring points Feeler gauge Information It is advisable to insert shims or metal sheets under the mounting feet in order to align the drive components in the vertical direction. It is helpful to use support paws with adjusting screws on the foundation to adjust the drive components laterally. Further information Further information about misalignment tolerances for couplings supplied by Flender can be found in the relevant operating instructions for the couplings in the complete documentation for the gear unit. If couplings from other manufacturers are to be used, then, specifying the radial loads that occur, ask the manufacturer which alignment errors are permissible. You can find additional information about couplings in the associated operating instructions. 5.5 Connecting components 5.5 Connecting components 5.5.1 Gear units with mounted components 5.5 Connecting components Depending on the order specification, the gear unit can be equipped with various compon- ents.
