A spacer BLO on the undercarriage of a flanging machine is a part used to create a gap or separation between two components. In the context of the undercarriage, spacers can be used to maintain a specific distance between wheels, bearings or other elements of the motion system. These spacers can help to ensure correct alignment, reduce friction and ensure smooth running of the drive train.

The main functions of a spacer on the wheel set of a flanging machine include:

1. Alignment : Spacers help to maintain precise alignment between the components of the wheel set, which is essential for stable and efficient movement of the flanging machine.

2. Friction reduction: By creating a defined gap between moving parts, spacers can help reduce friction, resulting in smoother movement.

3. Load distribution: They help to distribute the load evenly over the components of the wheel set, which can contribute to more uniform wear and longer service life.

When to change a spacer depends on a number of factors:

1. Normal wear and tear: Like any moving part, a spacer can undergo normal wear and tear over time. If it becomes worn or damaged, it may lose its effectiveness and require replacement.

2. Mechanical damage: Shock, impact or other mechanical damage can damage a spacer, requiring replacement to maintain the integrity of the system.

3. Changes to the system: If changes are made to the undercarriage system, it may be necessary to adjust or replace the spacers to ensure correct operation.

4. Preventive maintenance: Some manufacturers may recommend periodic replacement of parts, including spacers, as part of a preventive maintenance plan to prevent potential breakdowns.

It is essential to consult Repex Floor, the manufacturer, for specific recommendations on the maintenance and replacement of spacers. If any problems are observed, such as unusual noises, difficulty moving or obvious signs of wear, it is advisable to have the machine inspected by a qualified technician. This professional will be able to assess the condition of the spacers and recommend replacement if necessary to ensure that the edging machine operates correctly.
