Motor Slide Base

Once you use drive belts, chains or friction drives you will find a require for re-tensioning. As time passes, vibration and friction can result in slipping or unnecessary use on your machinery’s electrical motors or belts. The simplest way to account for that is to make sure your electric motors can be adjusted to pay for these problems through the use of electric motor slide bases. These permit you to accurately adapt the mounted electrical motor’s lateral position to the millimeter.
Motor Slide Bottom: This model demonstrates the use of a time saving technique called a good Component. A GOOD Component allows you to associate or “package jointly” other necessary elements and features when placing a part within an assembly. The linked parts and features will become automatically placed combined with the smart component by selecting a couple of reference faces. This particular example is utilized to quickly place a motor framework with the associated installation holes and hardware.
This model also has mate reference included which is another way to be better when assembly modeling. It’ll automatically add one or more mates without having to select multiple mate entities and the type of mate. A Design Table is utilized to generate four sample configurations which can be quickly modified to include more framework sizes.

Motor slide base made of steel
Steel Motor slide foundation is a simple alternative to the common clamping rails.
The electric motor is directly attached on the installed engine slide vase and the belt drive is stretched on the basic level of the slide base. The installation is less time-consuming and the establishing is easier.
The “Mono Plate“ version contains an assembly board which can’t be adjusted to between your motor feet.
With the “Duo Plate“ version, the assembly board is divided and only 1 side is led with the adjusting screw (tensioning screw). The plates can be moved independently which allows a certain variation with the motor feet distance.
The top quality galvanized surface or the cathodic dip painting (KTL) guarantee longevity with both versions and an easy use even under critical conditions. Additionally they are extremely torsion-resistant due to special workmanship of the metal profiles.
Due to the varied slot design you can reach a particular variability to add on different motors with the „Mono Plate“ version as well.
As the “Mono Plate” version is favored since it is more stable, so long as the exact distance between your motor feet is known.
Another advantage is certainly that the slide bases are easy to handle and light in weight.
Possible applications for the products include pumps, fans, compressors, conveyors, springtime loaded or vibration isolating mechanisms and much more.

pdblowers PN 54140 (modified 54140.P)

Modified base available for enhanced durability and strength
After using adjustable motor bases for several years on a huge selection of blower packages, pdblowers is rolling out several upgrades that produce the motor bases far more durable and easy to use. Beginning with the typical 445T motor bottom, our fabrication team makes the following modifications: Motor slide base
Welded Corners – The shaped corners of the bare slide bases are welded jointly to add durability and power to the overall base
Pressing Bolts – In two opposing corners, nuts are welded to the bottom frame and fitted with 6″ zinc-plated steel bolts. These pushing bolts are used to help placement the motor and change the alignment without having to put pressure on the adjusting screws that may otherwise easily become stripped.
Durable Paint Finish – After the modifications are made, the base receives a primer coat of Sherwin-Williams KEM KROMIK, a rust inhibiting, corrosion resistant phenolic alkyd resin primer, accompanied by a finish coat of Sherwin-Williams SHER-KEM® high gloss metal finishing enamel.
These altered bases are kept in stock for make use of on all pdblowers blower deals and can be purchased individually.
Universal engine slide bases can be utilized to mount NEMA standard electrical motors. Fabricated from metal and covered with primer for rugged, lasting reliability, these engine slide bases simplify the adjustment, alignment, and positioning of electric motors. Ideal for fine motor positioning, tightening of belts, and alignment applications.

Product Features
Bases are given with washers
Bases are painted with an oven-baked primer for better get in touch with of customer’s paint
All “D” bolts (electric motor mounting bolts) are welded into position to prevent spinning and “dropping” from slots
All “D” bolts are fixed to the exact foot pattern of the electric motor to aid in easier motor installation
Exact drop-in alternative to all major make slide bases
One adjusting screws for frames 56-145T
Dual adjusting screws for frames 182T-505T
The main purpose of a slide base is to permit the customer to adjust the motor’s position to insure proper tension on the belting apparatus.
Motor slide base
Construction/Installation:
The slide base is a one piece steel installation apparatus (with floor mounting holes and adjustable engine mounting bolts). When setting up, the base should be safely anchored as near to its operating position as possible. The engine should then be positioned on the slide bottom and the belting program configured. Position the electric motor so the proper tension is supplied to the belts and tighten the motor in place.

Availability:
Slide bases could be supplied for horizontal frames 140T through 449T, and so are specific to each body. Frames 140T – 365T possess one adjustable screw and 404T – 449T possess two adjustable screws.
56 – 505U Frame Size in Stock;
56 – 145T Frames are Single-Adjusting Screw Type;
182T – 505U Frames are Double-Adjusting Screw Type
Bases are Provided with Washers
Primed with Oven-Baked Primer for Easy Painting (Color: Black)
All “D” Bolts (or Motor Mounting Bolts) are Welded into Position to avoid Spinning and Dropping from the Slots

Field Installed Adjustable Motor Slide Base Weighty gauge steel mounting bases simplify installing motors and make the tensioning, maintenance and alternative of belts a straightforward efficient task. Fabricated from sheet or metal plate, after that primed and completed in a gray rust and corrosion resistant oven-baked complete.
foundation is meant to match a size 56 framework (56C, 56, 56J) and is supplied with washers and an oven-baked primer that’s ready for customers paint. All “D” bolts (motor installation bolts) are welded into position to avoid spinning and “dropping” from slots, plus all “D” bolts are set to the exact foot design of the electric motor for easier set up. This motor base is a primary drop in replacement for various other brands of slide bases.
