How to Install a Fixture to the Actuator
Fixtures can be mounted to the pedestal base, the actuator piston rod, or the upper
end cap.
The actuator is equipped with an upper end cap and a pedestal base which has
from four to eight threaded mounting holes.
The pedestal base also contains a center position threaded hole which may be
used to attach a swivel mounting accessory. The piston rod also contains a center
position threaded hole. This mounting hole is typically used to attach a swivel
mounting accessory or a specimen supporting fixture (shaker head or vibration
table) to the actuator.
Note See the Series 249 Swivels manual (MTS part number 011-775-600) for
more information about installing and using swivels with the actuator.
See the appropriate specifications table for information about the mounting
holes, hole pattern, and thread specification.
