Description
6 Product Specification S4Cplus M2000/BaseWare OS 4.0
Safe manual movement
The robot is moved using a joystick instead of the operator having to look at the teach
pendant to find the right key.
Over-speed protection
The speed of the robot is monitored by two independent computers.
Emergency stop
There is one emergency stop push button on the controller and another on the teach
pendant. Additional emergency stop buttons can be connected to the robot’s safety chain
circuit.
Safeguarded space stop
The controller has a number of electrical inputs which can be used to connect external
safety equipment, such as safety gates and light curtains. This allows the robot’s safety
functions to be activated both by peripheral equipment and by the robot itself.
Delayed safeguarded space stop
A delayed stop gives a smooth stop. The robot stops in the same way as at a normal
program stop with no deviation from the programmed path. After approx. 1 second the
power supplied to the motors shuts off.
Collision detection
In case an unexpected mechanical disturbance like a collision, electrode sticking, etc.
occurs, the robot will stop and slightly back off from its stop position.
Restricting the working space
The movement of each axis can be restricted using software limits.
There are safeguarded space stops for connection of limit switches to restrict the working
space.
For some robots the axes 1-3 can also be restricted by means of mechanical stops.
Hold-to-run control
“Hold-to-run” means that you must depress the start button in order to move the robot. When
the button is released the robot will stop. The hold-to-run function makes program testing
safer.
Fire safety
Both the manipulator and control system comply with UL’s (Underwriters Laboratory)
tough requirements for fire safety.
Safety lamp
As an option, the robot can be equipped with a safety lamp mounted on the manipulator.
This is activated when the controller is in the MOTORS ON state.
