4.2.6 Bin and Shuttle Operation & Adjustment
4.2.6.1 Bin and Shuttle Operation
The Bin assembly can store two complete sets of pins. The Shuttle, located below the Bin, holds
the pins in the Bin until a new setup is required. When the Shuttle Cam Follower, which is attached
to the Shuttle, travels into the low point of the Shuttle Cam, located on the Table Drive Shaft, the
Shuttle momentarily moves forward allowing a set of pins to drop through from the Bin to the
Spotting Cups.
4.2.6.2 Bin and Shuttle Adjustments
Note: Adjustments must be made with no pins in the bins.
1. With Durabin 2 with Optical Bin Switch, there should be approximately 2 1/2" between the
back edge of the Bin’s back channel and the leading edge of the Shuttle assembly measured at
the center of the Bin (see Figure 4.2-32). Make adjustments if shuttle malfunctions are
occurring, i.e. double shuttling or a pin is not shuttling. Adjustment procedure - For double
shuttling: Lengthen shuttle rod until one pin does not shuttle, then shorten shuttle rod by 1 to
2 turns of the rod end. For a pin not shuttling, shorten the shuttle rod by 1 to 2 turns of the
rod end. To adjust,
a. Remove shuttle spring.
b. Place a punch or screwdriver through the hole near the shuttle end of the shuttle
connecting rod’s tube, and then loosen the jam nut on the end fitting. Do not rotate the
connecting rod’s tube, as this will loosen the connecting rod’s components causing the
shuttle to malfunction during operation.
c. Disconnect the end of the shuttle connecting rod from the shuttle and adjust the length of
the rod accordingly.
d. Reconnect the rod and tighten the jam nut.
