If the electric gripper is used integrated into a system (machine, robot, etc.), the

system must satisfy regulations and standards for safety measures. First check

whether the system satisfies the relevant regulations and standards, and if so, handle

the product properly in accordance with the regulations and standards. The electric

gripper is an end effector for the robot system. When you design and/or assemble an

electric gripper, be sure to satisfy all requirements and conditions written in ISO

10218-2.

•

When you design and/or assemble an electric gripper, you must comply with the

stipulation of ISO 10218-2 "End-effectors shall be designed and constructed so that

the loss or change of energy supply (e.g. electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic, vacuum

supply) does not cause release of the load that would result in a hazardous condition.

When practicable, power can be supplied to end-effectors for troubleshooting without

applying motive energy to the robot actuator(s)."

• Devices must be selected and handled by a system designer, personnel in charge of

the actual operation using the product or similar individual with sufficient knowledge

and experience.

• Be sure to read the catalogue and operation manual before handling the product.
