*1: Mounting types other than Table top mounting, Ceiling mounting, and Wall mounting are out of specification.

*2: When PTP statements are used

*3: Do not apply the load exceeding the maximum payload.

*4: If the center of gravity is at the center of each arm.
If the center of gravity is not at the center of each arm, set the eccentricity using INERTIA command.

*5: For details of the installed pneumatic tube for customer use, refer to the following section.
User Wires and Pneumatic Tubes

*6: For details of the environmental requirements, refer to the following section.
Environment

*7: When used in a low-temperature environment near the minimum temperature specified in the product specifications, or when the unit is idle for a long period of time during holidays or at night, a collision detection error or similar error may occur immediately after the start of operation due to high resistance in the drive unit. In such cases, warm-up operation for about 10 minutes is recommended.

*8: The conditions at measurement are as follows.

  • Operating conditions: Under rated load, all arms simultaneous motion, maximum speed, and maximum acceleration/deceleration which duty is 100%.
  • Measurement point: 1000 mm apart from the rear of Manipulator

*9: Manipulators with cleanroom specifications discharge the exhaust inside of the base and inside of the arm cover section together. Consequently, if there is a gap in the base section, the arm tip section will not be sufficiently negatively pressurized, which may result in dust generation.

  • Cleanliness level:

    • C8L: ISO Class 3 (ISO14644-1)
    • C8XL: ISO Class 4 (ISO14644-1)
  • Exhaust port: Fitting for ⌀12 mm tube 60 L/min vacuum

  • Exhaust tube: Polyurethane tube Outer diameter: ⌀12 mm

ESD specification uses resin materials with anti-static treatment. This model controls adhesion of dust due to electrification.

Protection level for the standard model and cleanroom model Manipulators is equivalent to IP20.

The IP (International Protection) rating is an international standard indicating the degree of protection against dust and water.

Protection Class
IP20 Dust protection level: 2 A solid object which is 12.5 mm or longer cannot touch dangerous areas inside of the Manipulator.
Water protection level: 0 Not protected.

*10: Protection level for the protected-model Manipulators is IP67 (IEC standard). The Manipulators can be used in environments where the possibility of dust, water, and water-soluble cutting oil falling of the Manipulator exists. Note the following points.

  • The Manipulator is not rust-proofed. Do not use the Manipulator in environment where corrosive liquids exist.
  • Fluids that deteriorate the sealing materials, such as organic solvents, acids, alkalis, and chlorine cutting fluids, cannot be used.
  • The Manipulator cannot be used for underwater operations.
  • The Controller does not have protection features against the environment (Controller’s protection level: IP20). Make sure to install the system where environmental requirements for the Controller are satisfied.
  • The fan cover is equivalent to IP 20.
  • Be sure to connect a connector compliant with protection class IP67 or higher and a connector cover to the Ethernet cable connector.

The IP (International Protection) rating is an international standard indicating the degree of protection against dust and water.

Protection Class
IP20 Dust protection level: 2 A solid object which is 12.5 mm or longer cannot touch dangerous areas inside of the Manipulator.
Water protection level: 0 Not protected.
IP67 Dust protection level: 6

A testing rod which is 1.0 mm or longer cannot touch dangerous areas inside of the Manipulator.

Totally protected against dust.

Water protection level: 7 Water cannot enter the Manipulator when the Manipulator is immersed in water for 30 minutes under the condition that the highest point of the Manipulator is located 0.15 m below the surface of the water and the lowest point is located 1 m below the surface of the water. (The Manipulator is stopped during the test.)

*11: Note the following points when wiring the movable M/C cable.

  • Install the cable not to apply a load to the connector.

  • Bend the cable at the minimum bending radius of the movable part or more. The bending radius (a) and dimensions are shown in the figure below.

*12: The Accel setting of "100" is the optimum setting that balances acceleration/deceleration and vibration during positioning. Although values larger than 100 can be set to Accel, it is recommended to minimize the use of large values to necessary motions since operating the Manipulator continuously with the large Accel setting may shorten the product life remarkably.

*13: Maximum AccelS setting value varies depending on the load. For details, refer to the following figure. Setting the value which exceeds the maximum AccelS causes an error. Check the setting value.

Maximum AccelS setting value

  • Table top mounting, Ceiling mounting

  • Wall mounting
