"He who marches out of step hears another drum." ~ Ken Kesey
We have found from arm to arm the boards are actually NOT centered on any of our M&R Presses both auto and manual. The variance is over 1/8 inch in one direction. This happens with both the M&R boards and the Action Engineering boards.Also, lock/unlock/lock/repeat a board and watch it shift a bit This happens on our older press 12C 3-4 years old, 14C 1.5 years old, and a new (few months) 8/4 manual.I am not aware how to make our boards actually center on the arms..... To where the center of the board is centered on the arm.....So, you are not alone.
This is keeping us from using all our sleeve pallets. At station 4 the print, if it exceeds an overall width of 9 cm, will fall of the pallet . That really does suck.

I dont know the year we are discussing so I may make assumptions that are wrong. The earlier Chameleons had pins that must be installed on the arms before tightening the four bolts that hold them to the speed table. If yours is this make sure the numbered arms are in the right position, pins in, and then tighten the bolts. If you do not have guide pins make sure the arms are in the proper place by number and then you measure from the outermost pallet leveling bolt between arms and split them exactly. This should make all the pallets in the same position.
Thanks for the info! I will check that out very soon! That makes for..... 38 arms to double check
