Mounting Dimensions
The maximum space (R) includes the radius of the end effector. If it exceeds 80 mm, define the radius as the distance to the outer edge of maximum space. If a camera or solenoid valve extends outside of the arm, set the maximum range including the space that they may reach.
Be sure to allow for the following extra spaces in addition to the space required for mounting the Manipulator, Controller, and peripheral equipment.
- Space for teaching
- Space for maintenance and inspection (Ensure a space to open the covers and plates for maintenance.
- Space for cables
WARNING
Install the Manipulator in a place where the the tool or the tip of the workpiece does not reach the wall and safety barriers when the Arm holding the workpiece is stretched.
If the tool or tip of the workpiece touches the wall and safety barriers, it can be extremely hazardous and may result in serious bodily injury and/or severe equipment damage to the robot system.
The distance between the safety barriers and tool or workpiece should be set according to the ISO10218-2.
For details on the stopping time and stopping distance, refer to the following:
Appendix C: Stopping time and Stopping distance in Emergency
Appendix D: Stopping time and Stopping distance when Safeguard is Opened
KEY POINTS
When installing the cable, be sure to maintain sufficient distance from obstacles.
For the minimum bend radius of the MC cable, refer to the following.
Ensure distance to the safeguard from the maximum motion range is more than 100 mm.
