4: INSTALLATION
5. Put the tool holder into the fork so that the groove in the
tool holder slides into the fork. Don't rest the tool holder
on top of the fork.
Figure 4-84: Groove on a Tormach Tooling System
(TTS) aligned with the shoulder of an ATC fork.
6. Put a machinist's square on the machine table.
Examine Perpendicularity in the Y Direction
1. Verify that the rod is perpendicular to the machine table
in the Y direction: compare the rod's position to the
vertical edge of the machinist's square.
l If the rod is perpendicular to the vertical edge of the
machinist's square, go to "Examine Perpendicularity
in the X Direction" (below).
l If the rod must be adjusted, go to Step 2.
2. Loosen the flange nuts on the standoffs.
3. Turn the tilt standoff with an adjustable wrench, and
slowly pivot the ATC until the rod is perpendicular to the
vertical edge of the machinist's square.
Figure 4-85: Tilt standoff.
4. Tighten the flange nuts with a 13 mm socket.
5. Reexamine the alignment of the ATC in the Y direction. If
the rod isn't perpendicular to the vertical edge of the
machinist's square, repeat Steps 2 through 5.
Examine Perpendicularity in the X Direction
1. Verify that the rod is perpendicular to the machine table
in the X direction: compare the rod's position to the
vertical edge of the machinist's square.
l If the rod is perpendicular to the vertical edge of the
machinist's square, go to "Examine the Alignment of
the Carousel Door Opening" (below).
l If the rod must be adjusted, go to Step 2.
2. Loosen the two socket head cap screws on the linear
rails.
Figure 4-86: Socket head cap screws on the linear
rails.
3. Slowly pivot the linear rails up or down until the rod is
perpendicular to the vertical edge of the machinist's
square.
4. Tighten the socket head cap screws.
5. Reexamine the alignment of the ATC in the X direction. If
the rod isn't perpendicular to the vertical edge of the
machinist's square, repeat Steps 2 through 5.
Examine the Alignment of the Carousel Door Opening
1. Remove the tool holder from the fork, and set it aside.
Note: You'll need this tool later in the
installation procedure to make further
alignments.
