What to do if Brooks PreciseFlex 400 Robotics joint is out of range?
If a joint on your Brooks Robotics system is out of range, it may be beyond the software limit stop. Move the joint back into range while monitoring the virtual pendant, or check the program for the commanded position.
What to do if Brooks Robotics amplifier under voltage?
If your Brooks Robotics amplifier is experiencing under voltage, it could be due to the motor power supply reaching its current limit and shutting down. Try slowing down the robot. Also, check the Energy Dump PCA and consider replacing the 48V supply.
How to fix a Brooks PreciseFlex 400 motor duty cycle exceeded error?
If the motor duty cycle is exceeded on your Brooks Robotics system, reduce the speed or acceleration of the robot. Also, check for any instability.
What causes a hard envelope error on Brooks PreciseFlex 400?
A hard envelope error on Brooks Robotics typically means the robot has crashed into something.
What to do if Brooks PreciseFlex 400 Robotics amplifier fault?
If you are experiencing an amplifier fault with your Brooks Robotics system, check the harness and motor for shorts.
What to do if Brooks PreciseFlex 400 amplifier over voltage?
If your Brooks Robotics amplifier is experiencing over voltage, replace the energy dump board and check the harness for shorts.
How to troubleshoot mechanical noise from Brooks PreciseFlex 400 Robotics joint?
To troubleshoot mechanical noise from any joint in Brooks Robotics, check the joint bearings for failure and re-tension the belt.
How to fix loud buzzing or vibration from Brooks PreciseFlex 400 Robotics joint?
To address loud buzzing or vibration from a joint in your Brooks Robotics system, re-tension the timing belts. If the timing belt will not hold tension, replace it.
What to do if Brooks Robotics pneumatic gripper sensor not working?
If the pneumatic gripper sensor is not working on your Brooks Robotics system, check the continuity of the cable through the wrist. Also, check the green lights on the sensor to see if the sensor is triggering.
How to fix squeaking from Z belt on Brooks PreciseFlex 400 Robotics?
To fix squeaking from the Z belt on Brooks Robotics, apply thick grease to the front and rear edges of the belt, (Mobile 222 XP). The belt can get stiff over time and squeak against pulley flanges.
