INTRODUCTION This service manual pertains to the disassembly and assembly of CAMCO’s Heavy Duty "E" Series Index Drive models 950E, 1150E, 1550E & 2050E. This manual is to be used in conjunction with the General Service Manual, which describes the lubrication and general maintenance of CAMCO Index Drives. A cross section view of a typical CAMCO Heavy Duty "E" Series Index Drive model 950E, 1150E, 1550E or 2050E is included in this manual.
SPARE PARTS KIT: CAMCO offers a spare parts kit for all CAMCO index drive models manufactured by CAMCO. The spare parts kit for CAMCO’s Heavy Duty "E" Series Index Drive includes input oil seals, input bearings, and input shims. Cam followers are not included in the spare parts kit. CAMCO recommends a spare parts kit and cam followers be purchased and kept on hand prior to any disassembly of your CAMCO E-Series Index Drive.
WARNING CAMCO’s Heavy Duty "E" Series Index Drives cannot be "hand cranked" when completely assembled, i.e. with follower wheel installed. During some portions of repair, the motor drive package is used to rotate the input shaft and follower wheel. Some means for running the motor at extremely low speeds is mandatory. Use extreme caution when operating the motor during repairs. Before starting disassembly of your CAMCO unit you should read and review the following instructions.
DISASSEMBLY AND INSPECTION: 2.2. Visually observe the surface of the outer shell. Inspect followers for damage or radial looseness. Looseness should not exceed .001 inch. Do not confuse radial looseness with axial endplay. End play will be from .03 to .06 inch as a normal condition. If endplay exceeds .06 inch the followers should be replaced. DISASSEMBLY: 1. Remove only those structural members and fixtures required to gain access to the index drive and to allow for completing the necessary procedures.
OIL SEAL REPLACEMENT: diameter is bent or otherwise damaged, replace the oil seal. CAMCO recommends replacing the Input oil seals (Item #13) anytime the input is disassembled regardless of whether they are damaged or not. After being in service for some time, the sealing lip can become brittle and easily cracked. Most damage to oil seals occurs at assembly when recommended seal installation procedures are not followed. 2. Check the input shaft for surface nicks, burrs or a groove from the sealing lip.
.1. Installation tools should have an outside diameter .010 inch smaller than the bore size. The bore should be .005 larger than the shaft size, and the face of the tool should be relieved so that pressure is applied only near the outside diameter of the seal. cam followers, pack all new cam followers in a large Styrofoam container (Igloo‚ 50 or 60 gallon Ice Chest) three-quarters filled with dry ice. 1. Remove socket head cap screws (Item # 32) and remove side access cover (Item #10) 8.2.
WARNING Use protective gloves while handling cam followers after they have been packed in dry ice. 4. Remove bore plug (Item #33), the cam follower screw (Item #15) and the heavy washer (Item #9). CAMCO used Red Perma-Lok‚ to secure these screws If you encounter difficulty when removing the screw, apply heat to the screw and remove while still warm. 1. Coat the follower wheel stud hole with anti-seize lubricant.
CAM AND/OR INPUT SHAFT REPLACEMENT: 2. Install heavy-duty washer and socket head cap screw, assembled as shown in sketch titled "Cam Follower Replacement E-Series Index Drives" in this Service Manual. Use Red Perma-Lok®‚ and torque the socket head cap screw to specification. The tightening torque depends on the size of the cam follower. See the table titled "Torque Requirements for Tightening Screws" in this Service Manual for tightening torque.
1. Remove two or three cam followers. See section titled "Cam Follower Removal" in this Service Manual for detailed instructions on cam follower removal. 5. Depending on whether the follower wheel was removed, proceed as follows. 5.1. Follower wheel was not removed. 2. While referring to the sketch titled "E-Series Input Shaft And Cam Removal", proceed as follows. 5.1.1.
5.1.5. Put a hex nut on the threaded rod and run it down until the nut is snug against the plate and until the threaded rod is supporting the weight of the cam. 7. Match mark the bearing cartridges. Eccentric cartridges are used in E-Series Index Drives to accommodate different cam diameters. The cartridges must be replaced in the same orientation as when removed.
cartridges were removed. See sketch titled "E-Series Input Shaft and Cam Removal" in this Service Manual. sure the input shaft doesn’t fall when the end is pushed out of the cam and becomes unsupported. 10.1. Using diametrically opposed tapped holes, install two (2) threaded rods into the tapped holes. These rods should extend beyond the end of the input shaft sufficiently to allow for a hydraulic jack. 13. Before proceeding, inspect the keyway in the input shaft to make sure they are to size.
tion where one or more cam followers are over the housing cavity. Use a come-a-long or other device to pull the follower wheel and any attached tooling into position. Two or three cam followers can be accessed through the large access opening in the housing. See section titled "Cam Follower Replacement" in this Service Manual. CAM REMOVAL: 1. Once the input shaft has been removed, use one of two methods to lower the cam into the bottom of the housing. 1.1.
4.1. Reverse one of the methods described for lowering the cam into the housing when lifting the cam. See section titled "Cam and/or Input Shaft Replacement" in this Service Manual. CAUTION Make sure the bearing is seated against the shaft shoulder. Improper mounting of the bearing can cause premature failure. 3.5. If the bearing does not immediately seat against the shaft shoulder, use a piece of tubing over the shaft and against the bearing, and a soft hammer to drive the bearing against the shoulder.
7.2. Heat a new Bearing Cone in a commercial bearing oven that has been designed for this purpose. Heat evenly to about 250˚F. 11.1. Endplay in the input shaft is not permissible. There should be preload on the input bearings. Use a dial indicator and a pry bar to check for endplay. 7.3. Alternatively, heat the bearing with a heat gun. 11.2. Heavier preload is preferred to endplay. Remove input shim if end play is detected.
2. With a depth micrometer, measure from the face of the dwell track on one side of the cam to the dowel pin. resistance is encountered, adjust the cam axially to a more suitable position. WARNING CAMCO Heavy Duty "E" Series Index Drives cannot be "hand cranked" when completely assembled, i.e. with follower wheel installed. During some portions of repair, the motor drive package is used to rotate the input shaft and follower wheel. Some means for running the motor at extremely low speeds is mandatory.
FOLLOWER WHEEL AND/OR OUTPUT BEARING REPLACEMENT: 12. Once proper contact has been assured, use the following procedure to tighten the locknuts and secure the lockwasher tabs. FOLLOWER WHEEL REMOVAL: 12.1. Back off both locknuts and the lockwasher on one side of the cam. In most cases, the follower wheel and/or output bearing cannot be removed without removing the major portion of any support structure and fixtures.
Refer to the model number of your Index Drive for the amount of dwell provided. Also refer to "Interpretation of Index Drive Model Number" in the General Service Manual. CAUTION See "Approximate Weights" within this Service Manual for sizing the lift device. OUTPUT BEARING REMOVAL: WARNING CAMCO’s Heavy Duty "E" Series Index Drives cannot be "hand cranked" when completely assembled, i.e. with follower wheel installed.
3. Thread lifting eyes into the threaded holes in the bearing (two places 180 degrees apart or three places 120 degrees apart) and using a boom crane or hoist set the bearing onto the housing. 1.3. If used, install pull type dowel pins. Apply Red Perma-Lok. 1.4. Install 16 to 40 socket head cap screws. Tighten to specification. See table titled “Torque Requirements For Tightening Screws” in this Service Manual. 4.
2. Customer name (original purchaser of drive ) the bearing to ensure that new grease is being distributed throughout the bearing and not just purging past the seals. Inject the recommended amount divided by the number of stops during each index for one full revolution of the table. 3. Model number (located on name plate) 4. Serial number (located on name plate) (essential when ordering parts) WARNING CAMCO’s Heavy Duty "E" Series Index Drives cannot be "hand cranked" when completely assembled, i.e.
