7.2.2 Mount the brackets
Mount the brackets on opposite sides of the coupling on either the shafts or on the solid
coupling hubs, and both at the same rotational position.
Prerequisites
To obtain the highest possible measurement accuracy and to avoid damage to equipment:
• Ensure the brackets fit solidly onto their mounting surfaces.
• Do not use self-constructed mounting brackets, or modify the original bracket
configuration. For example, do not use support posts longer than those supplied
with the bracket.
• Choose the shortest support posts that will allow the laser beam to pass over or
through the coupling.
Note
Refer to Figure 7-8 for detailed illustrations on how to mount the brackets. The numbers in the figure
correspond to the numbers in the following steps.
