Take-Up Unit
Take-Up Unit
These units are designed to support a shaft which is positioned at either end of an adjusting screw. The unit is held in position by a take-up frame. The unit has a channel machined on either side of the housing that fits the guide rails of the take-up frame. The adjusting screw is attached to the unit by a collar which is pinned to the end of the adjusting screw.

These units are typically mounted where it is important to position a shaft or tighten a belt. As the adjusting screw is turned, the shaft shifts position. Generally, the take-up frame and unit are placed on opposite ends of the shaft, and both must be adjusted in like increments to maintain the proper shaft position.

The primary application for these units is conveyors and the NTN nomenclature designation is T. More information on these units can be found in the NTN mounted unit catalog.
