TURBO HB
1.1. Basic introduction
LNS conveyors simply and reliably remove waste from machining operations. Machine efficiency is
increased and operator safety is improved since the conveyors work with little operator attention and
without interrupting production time. LNS SA conveyors are available for many types of machine tools or
other applications. They can be arranged to deliver wet or dry waste to containers or to conveyor or
chute-type disposal systems. For further information, contact LNS.
The TURBO HB conveyor was specifically designed to handle a wide variety of materials and applications
where filtration is not required. Its simple yet robust construction ensures it offers a long, continuous,
trouble free operation in the most demanding of today’s machining environments.
Combining the latest conveyor technology and user friendliness, it provides efficient chip removal, while
remaining simple to use and highly reliable. Given its compact assembly, TURBO HB requires very little
space, and allows for optimum use of the work surface.
1.1.1. Symbols and terminology
This sign recommends following the directions very closely avoiding causing an incident
that could result in injury, damage to the equipment, or data loss.
This sign indicates that safety measures must be taken to avoid possible electrical shocks
or mishaps.
This sign stress interesting points or comments, and provide useful advice for optimal
system operation

SETTING INTO OPERATION

2-2 CHAPTER 2: SETTING INTO OPERATION
TURBO HB
2.1. Transportation
Please read the safety precautions described at the beginning of this manual before
handling the following devices.
Depending on its destination, the conveyor is normally secured to a pallet then heat sealed inside a
protective plastic cover. All shipping documents including this manual are also secured to the pallet.
Regardless of the type of packaging, the un-creating and lifting instructions recommended by LNS SA
must be observed in order to prevent any injuries to persons and damages to objects.
2.2. Unpacking
For practical and safety reasons, the conveyor must be unpacked in a spacious, well-lit location.
Check to see that the lifting capacity of the hoisting crane, or lift truck, is adequate before
proceeding with the handling of the merchandise. No one should be near the hanging load,
or within the operating range of the overhead hoist/crane, forklift, or any other means used
for lifting and transportation.
1) If the conveyor is received as shown below start by removing the protective plastic material
2) Cut any steel banding used to secure the conveyor to the pallet using side cutters (always wear
eye protection and gloves)
3) Remove any screws holding the conveyor to the pallet (these may go through jacking or castor
plates.
