Robotiq Screwdriving Solution - Instruction Manual
The Robotiq Screwdriver is meant to be used on Universal Robots collaborative robots. The robot, Screwdriver, Screw Feeder, and
any other equipment used in the final application must be evaluated via a thorough risk assessment.
The following non-exhaustive list presents risksthat must be assessed during the integration process:
l
Risk of pinching between the Screwdriver and the processed objects or the surrounding environment.
l
Risk of pinching between the moving and stationary parts of the screw singulator of the Screw Feeder.
l
Risk of damage to material or bodily injury caused by contact with a screwdriving bit, or with a screw held in place by the screw-
driving bit and vacuum sleeve.
Depending on the application, there may be hazardsthat require additional protection and/or safety measures. For instance, the
screw handled by the Screwdriver could be inherently dangerous to the operator.
Warning
Loss of vacuum can occur due to power failure or air supply stoppage.
2.3.Intended Use
The Screwdriver isdesigned for reclaiming a screw from the screw detection position on the Screw Feeder, holding that screw in
order to move it from the detection position to a fastening or screwing location, and fastening or screwing said screw.
2.3.1.Typical Applications
