INTRODUCTION This service manual pertains to the disassembly and assembly of CAMCO’s 1.5 link, 2.0 link, 3.0 link, 4.5 link, and 6.0 link “Table Top” Precision Link Conveyors and CAMCO’s 6.0 and 9.0 “HeavyDuty” Precision Link Conveyors. The CAMCO Precision Link Conveyor comes in two types: “over and under” and “carousel”. Both are driven by a CAMCO Index Drive containing cam followers and a precision ground cam.
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS Statements in this manual preceded by the words WARNING or CAUTION and printed in italics are very important. We recommend you take special notice of these during service or repair. WARNING: Means there is the possibility of personal injury to yourself or others. CAUTION: Means there is the possibility of damage to the CAMCO unit. SPARE PARTS KIT CAMCO offers a Spare Parts Kit for all CAMCO Precision Link Conveyors.
CONVEYOR LUBRICATION INFORMATION The following is a recommendation for “Clean” Environment “Moderate” Loading and “30” Cycles per min. GENERAL Lubrication of the CAMCO’s Precision Link Conveyors is largely dependent upon Work Environment, Conveyor Loading and Cycle Rate, therefore a “standard” lube interval cannot be established but instead should be determined by the Customer based on the above conditions.
CHAIN OR IDLER LUBRICATION LINE SHAFT LUBRICATION All idlers (chain or belt) are supplied with a grease fitting and should be lubricated at least once a month. Roller chains are used in some applications to drive the line shaft or provide power to optional equipment such as indexers, oscillators, pick and place units, etc. These chains should be brushed periodically with a light machine oil. Timing belts do not require any lubrication.
CHANGING OF PRECISION LINK CAM FOLLOWERS If a pedestal mount is used, the four "forward-most” screws used to mount the base to the main frame will be the take-up cam locking screws. The changing of cam followers on CAMCO Precision Link Conveyors is done by two methods, depending upon which follower is worn. The procedure for changing the link pin followers (3) is different from the procedure for the link support followers (10). (See Pages 12 to 15).
WARNING: Use caution when pulling chain for section removal. The chain should be held back so that a runaway condition does not occur. This can happen when the weight of the chain outside the conveyor overcomes the friction of the chain still inside the conveyor and all the links feed out uncontrollably. 7. Remove followers (3) and if equipped, shims (5) from one side only. If equipped with shims (5), retain for reassembly. 8. 9.
CONVEYOR TENSION SETTING On a heavy duty base design, clearance holes will be provided to locate and access these screws. It may also be necessary, on a heavy duty base, to loosen the three end support block mounting screws, located on the bottom of the conveyor frame at the extreme end. GENERAL INFORMATION To maintain and guarantee accuracy and performance of the conveyor, CAMCO utilizes a unique “chordal action compensating CAM”. This CAM arrangement is state of the art in precision link conveyor design.
