Installation on blank platform
Positioning holes and M12 threads are needed, just like descibed in "Threads and positioning holes on the platforms".
Installation on grid platform
By definition, grid platform has all positioning holes and threads ready (Multi-pupose holes).
The set AD-RM-n includes n pieces of bolts, where 2 bolts are type OKSB12-45 and the remaining ones (n-2 pieces) are of type DIN912M12X45.
Installation to T-slots
T-slot type A set enables installations parellel to T-slots.
T-slot type AB set enables installations parallel and perperdicular to T-slots.
AD-MT-xx contains machining of keys M-T1 with batch startup cost BS-1 (this is once per production order), keys LK-18xx (2 pcs) and screws DIN7984M6X10 (2 pcs).
AD-BT-xx contains installation one bolt DIN912M12X45 with T-slot nut DIN508-M12-xx.
xx = T-slot widht. Most typical ones are 14, 16 and 18 mm.
Fastening clamps
This is an option which is typically used to fasten components to a base (typically a T-slot table) in cases where the component cannot be bolted directly.
ICI-12 For Multi-Rail RM ( 2 pcs )
IC1-12-C For Combo-Rail ( 2 pcs )
Both of these can be used with M12 and 1/2" bolts.
In the picture above the clamps have a hole for M16 bolts ( ICI-16 )
Threads and positioning holes on the platforms
When a Multi-Rail system is installed on the grid or blank platform, most typical way of installation is to use two shoulder bolts for positioning and DIN912 bolts for remaining holes.
Shoulder bolt requires a precise 12 mm hole. Additionally, bushings and/or threaded inserts can be used.
For the standard bolts simple M12 thread is needed. In aluminium platforms, threaded inserts are recommended.
Inserts and platforms are available through the OK-VISE global distribution network.
