DELIVERY AND TRANSPORT
The Arm and Control contain sensive electromechanical components. These
can be decalibrated or damaged by shock. Cables need to be in perfect con-
dion. Damaged components can, for example, cause electrical risks and may
lead to severe injury.
Therefore:
• Check if the packaging is in perfect condion and fulls its protecve
funcon
• Cables or plugs must be free of damages
• If damages are found, the devices are to be taken out of operaon (e.g.
‘disabled’ label). In cases of doubt, contact the manufacturer.
Delivery
Panda is delivered in original packaging. The delivery scope is described in
chapter: Introducon/ This is Panda/ Scope of delivery and addionally required
equipment.
Since both the Arm and Control contain sensive electromechanical components,
we recommend storing and transporng them in their original packaging at all
mes. The transport posion is described in chapter: Specicaons/ Technical
Specicaon.
• Furthermore, we oer a funcon in Desk for bringing the Arm in transport
posion with one click.
• Before the funcon can be used, the end eector must be removed
• It is to be ensured that the robot can move freely to adopt the transport
posion and is not encumbered by obstacles.
