Adept Cobra s600/s800 Robot User’s Guide, Rev H 37
3.4 Environmental and Facility Requirements
The Adept robot system installation must meet the operating environment requirements
shown in Table 3-1.
3.5 Mounting the Robot
Mounting Surface
The Adept Cobra s-series robot is designed to be mounted on a smooth, flat, level
tabletop. The mounting structure must be rigid enough to prevent vibration and flexing
during robot operation. Adept recommends a 25 mm (1 in.) thick steel plate mounted to a
rigid tube frame. Excessive vibration or mounting flexure will degrade robot
performance. Figure 3-2 shows the mounting hole pattern for the Adept Cobra s-series
robots.
NOTE: On the under side of the base there is a hole and a slot that can be
used as locating points for user-installed dowel pins in the mounting
surface; see Figure 3-2. Using locating pins could improve the ability to
remove and reinstall the robot in the same position.
