Carriage/Spreader Mount for Motion Systems

Product Specifications

Technical details and manufacturing context for Carriage / Spreader Mount

Definition

The Carriage/Spreader Mount is a structural component used in motion systems to support and position the carriage and spreader assembly. It provides a stable interface between the moving parts and the machine frame or guide rails, ensuring proper alignment and load distribution during linear or rotational movement. The mount is typically manufactured from steel, aluminum alloy, or cast iron, with surface treatments such as anodizing for corrosion resistance. It is available in various configurations to accommodate different travel lengths and load capacities. The mount features a mounting interface with thread sizes from M8 to M16, and its weight ranges from 15 to 60 kg depending on size and configuration. Key performance parameters include a load capacity of 500–2000 kg (static; dynamic loads may require derating), positioning accuracy of ±0.05 mm, and repeatability of ±0.02 mm under no-load conditions at 20°C, both per ISO 230-2. Maximum speed is 1–2 m/s, limited by the motor and control system. Operating temperature range is -10°C to 60°C, with ingress protection ratings from IP54 to IP65 per IEC 60529. The material is typically 6061-T6 aluminum alloy per ASTM B221, with anodized surface treatment per MIL-A-8625. These values are reference ranges and must be verified for the specific model and application. The mount absorbs operational forces and vibrations, maintaining alignment between moving and stationary elements to enable smooth motion transfer. It is essential to confirm model-specific values and standards with the legal manufacturer or supplier before procurement.

Working Principle

The mount provides a rigid, precisely machined interface that secures the carriage and spreader assembly to the motion system's structural framework. It absorbs operational forces and vibrations while maintaining alignment between moving components and stationary elements, enabling smooth and accurate motion transfer. The mount's design ensures proper load distribution and structural integrity during operation.
