5.3. Methods for Aligning Guideways
Alignment of the guide rails depends on the level of accuracy needed and must be
specified in the construction phase of the machine, since this is when the number
of locating surfaces as well as their positions is determined. A distinction is made
between the following types of alignment:
No reference edge available
• Alignment by hand without tools
• Not recommended
• Very low level of accuracy
No reference edge available
• Alignment by hand with tools, e. g. aligning gauge, guide strip, dial gauge,
installation carriage
• Medium to high level of accuracy depending on the complexity
Lateral reference
• Alignment by means of pressing against the locating surface
• High level of accuracy, depending on the accuracy of the reference edge
• Very quick due to predefined reference edge
Lateral locating surface and additional lateral clamping
• Alignment by pressing against the locating surface with the help of lateral
clamping elements
• Very high level of accuracy, depending on the accuracy of the reference edge
• Very quick due to predefined reference edge
