3.3.2 Install Tape Scale Using the Applicator Tool
Use the steps in this section to install PurePrecision Laser Tape II Scales using the hand-held
Applicator Tool. (See Section 3.1.4 Design Guide for details on scale mounting instructions.)
The Applicator Tool
The Hand-Grip Applicator Tool (Model TSAT-PPT) is needed for tape scale lengths greater than
300mm and recommended for lengths of 250mm. It is designed to be handheld and to slide along
either a permanent or temporary mounting edge while the tape scale is supplied.
Applicator Tool Mounting Surface Guide Edges
The applicator tool has two guide edges:
Low guide edge for configurations of thickness 0.76mm (0.030 inches)
High guide edge for configurations of thickness greater than 9.5mm (.375 inches)
Refer to the encoder Interface Drawings for tape scale reference edge “D.”
Low Guide Edge
Grips for Finger Placement
Reference arrows for tool
and tape scale orientation
Low guide edge of tool should
be in contact with mounting
surface edge of thickness
0.76mm (0.030 inches)
Note: The low guide edge also corresponds to the “D”
tape scale reference edge in the interface drawing.
