Replacing the counting disc on your counting machine – quick & easy explained

Fast and safe replacement of the counting disc is a key factor in ensuring smooth operation of your counting machine. With the right approach, downtime can be minimised and productivity sustainably increased.

In our video, we show how easily the counting disc can be replaced on a GTS counting machine. Our systems are specifically designed to make maintenance work efficient and user-friendly – ensuring maximum performance in daily operation.

Instructions: Replacing the counting disc

Replacing the counting disc takes place in a few, clearly structured steps:

  1. Open the access door to the counting unit.
  2. Loosen the hexagon socket screw.
  3. Remove the current counting disc.
    Note: To prevent the counting disc from falling and being damaged, place a cloth underneath the installed disc before removal.
  4. Insert the new counting disc.
  5. Centre the counting disc beneath the transfer block.
  6. Gently press the counting disc against the transfer block.
  7. Rotate the counting disc until the drive pin of the shaft fully engages in one of the drive holes of the counting disc.
  8. Secure the counting disc using the hexagon socket screw (maximum tightening torque: 10 Nm).

Important note for proper operation

The counting disc must be installed in such a way that no vacuum loss occurs between the transfer block and the counting disc. To ensure optimal performance and process reliability, we also recommend replacing the adapter disc.

Efficient maintenance for maximum machine performance

The simple replacement of the counting disc demonstrates how important well-designed machinery is for daily operation. Our counting machines are engineered to enable maintenance processes to be carried out quickly, safely and without unnecessary complexity. This reduces downtime and ensures consistently high performance.
