The figure clarifies the function of these two parameters. A grip is
only valid (which means it doesn't create an error) if the detected
width of the part lies within the hatched area consisting of the part
width tolerance and the clamping travel. If no part is detected,
then the gripper state will change to "NO PART FOUND". If a
contact is detected outside of the defined range, this will be
detected as an axis block and the gripper's state will change to
"ERROR".
NOTE
The detector of parts to be gripped and the grip monitoring are
not running in pre-position mode ("Pre-position" command).
NOTICE
Material damage due to insufficient lubrication!
In the case of long-term short travel, it is possible to dry the
product.
• Every 1000 movements or at least once per day the product
should be moved through its full range of travel.
NOTE
• For soft parts to be gripped, it may be necessary to increase the
clamping travel.
• Setting the part width tolerance to the full range of movement
of the product (maximum settings) will deactivate the detection
of axis blocking when gripping.
