Compensation unit compensating in Z-direction
The compensation unit AGE-Z 2 allows for Z-compensation of different collection and deposition positions. The compensation unit runs on a ball-guide that is free from play. Pressure springs determine the rigidity of the AGE-Z 2. It can be increased by additionally actuating the pneumatic cylinder.
The cylinder also ensures the unit to be locked in the event of dynamic movements. Monitoring of the retracted and the extended position is done by a magnetic switch.
