8.) Extension of the worm conveyor system
Different possibilities for extending the conveyor system are available
(MBDK0001 in section 17).
If an intermediate bearing is not required continue with step 9.
If an intermediate bearing is required for the extension, slide the
intermediate bearing onto the extension worm and guide the shaft end
through the hollow shaft as shown.
The two worm ends must be twisted in such a manner that they are
positioned approximately 180° relative to each other and the cross
hole is flush.
Fasten the connecting bolt.
The free shaft end must be supported at axis height until the
intermediate bearing is fastened in the trough.
Short extension worms do not need to be supported.
Extending the worm
9.) Prepare the intermediate bearing
The trough extensions must be prepared for the intermediate bearing.
To do this enlarge the small bore in the side wall of the trough to
Ø 10 mm.
For extension KWB art. no. ZSV 24 place a second intermediate
bearing. (MBDK0001 in section 17)
Enlarge the bearing point bore
10.) Install the intermediate bearing
Guide the extension trough over the worm and bolt the two flanges
together
Connect the flanges
Guide the fastening bolts of the intermediate bearing through the
prepared bore of the side wall of the trough. Tighten the connection
and ensure that the bearing bush is in the aligned position. To do
this maintain the intermediate bearing at the appropriate position.
At this point a support is no longer necessary for the worm, as the ends
of the long worm elements are already permanently supported.
For additional extensions repeat the steps from step three. If there are
no additional extensions go to step 11.
