Location for cable fixing plates
There are two mounting positions for the base on both sides. Use each cable fixing plate to select the location suitable for the cable routing according to your Manipulator’s operation condition.
How to mount the cable fixing plates
For the Base
- Mount the cable fixing plate (a) on your Manipulator.
Hexagon socket head cap bolt (b): 2-M4× 8
Tightening Torque: 4.0 ± 0.2 N·m
Put the wire tie (a) through the cutout for fixing the cables on the cable fixing plate. Then, bind the cables with the wire tie over the cable protection sheet (b).
KEY POINTS
When binding the cables, be sure to make extra length so that the cables will not be tight while each joint operates and the bending radius is within the specifications of the cable.
For Joint #2
- Mount the cable fixing plate (a) on your Manipulator.
Hexagon socket head cap bolt (b): 4-M4× 8
Tightening Torque: 4.0 ± 0.2 N·m
Put the wire tie (a) through the cutout for fixing the cables on the cable fixing plate. Then, bind the cables with the wire tie over the cable protection sheet (b).
KEY POINTS
When binding the cables, be sure to make extra length so that the cables will not be tight while each joint operates and the bending radius is within the specifications of the cable.
For Joint #3
- Mount the cable fixing plate (a) on your Manipulator.
Hexagon socket head cap bolt (b): 4-M4× 8
Tightening Torque: 4.0 ± 0.2 N·m
Put the wire tie (a) through the two slotted holes for fixing the cables on the cable fixing plate. Then, bind the cables with the wire tie over the cable protection sheet (b).
KEY POINTS
When binding the cables, be sure to make extra length so that the cables will not be tight while each joint operates and the bending radius is within the specifications of the cable.
For Joint #4
- Mount the cable fixing plate (a) on your Manipulator.
Hexagon socket head cap bolt (b): 4-M4× 8
Tightening Torque: 4.0 ± 0.2 N·m
Hexagon strut (c): BSF410-E×4
Put the wire tie (a) through the cutout and the slotted hole for fixing the cables on the cable fixing plate. Then, bind the cables with the wire tie over the cable protection sheet (b).
KEY POINTS
When binding the cables, be sure to make extra length so that the cables will not be tight while each joint operates and the bending radius is within the specifications of the cable.
