5. Assembly and Installation
Step 1 - Preparation of the bore: Before the parallel pin with female thread is mounted, it is essential that the bore is clean and free of burrs. This ensures that the pin can be inserted accurately and a secure connection is guaranteed. Dirt and burrs in the bore can hinder the assembly and affect the stability of the connection.
Step 2 - Pressing or driving in: The actual assembly is done by pressing or driving the parallel pin into the prepared bore. It is important to apply even pressure to avoid damage. This ensures a stable and permanent fixation of the pin in the component.
Step 3 - Using the female thread: After the assembly, the integrated female thread can be used for additional securing. Screws or threaded pins can be screwed in to further stabilize the connection and secure the fastening. This additional fixation increases the reliability and load-bearing capacity of the entire construction.
A clean and careful assembly step ensures that the parallel pin with female thread can achieve its full functionality and strength. Using the female thread provides an additional method for stabilizing and fixing the components, making the application possibilities even more diverse.
Step 4 - Inspection and testing: After the assembly, it is crucial to inspect the installation to ensure that the fit and alignment of the components meet the specifications. A thorough inspection helps to identify and correct assembly errors before the assembly is put into operation.
6. Safety instructions & Standards
Protective equipment: During the assembly of parallel pins with female thread, wearing appropriate protective equipment is essential. Safety goggles protect the eyes from flying particles and shavings, while gloves protect the hands from injuries and skin irritations. These precautions significantly contribute to preventing workplace accidents.
Tools: Use only intact and task-appropriate tools. Defective or unsuitable tools can lead to faulty assemblies and injuries. Additionally, suitable tools ensure a safe, precise, and efficient installation of the parallel pins.
Compliance with standards: When assembling and using parallel pins with female thread, it is crucial to observe the relevant standards. Adherence to DIN EN ISO 8735 is particularly important. This standard outlines the requirements for parallel pins that must be met for safe and reliable use. Furthermore, supplementary engineering and safety standards should be considered to ensure the highest safety and quality standards.
