Fig. 3.20 Example of changing axis-3 working envelope (TVL 700)
<2> Examples of changing axis-3 working envelopes and the change method
By changing the shape of the mechanical stopper, you can set the operation
range of the machine at a desired level. A design example of a mechanical
stopper is explained below using the TVL500 robot as an example. Wherever
required, you can design and manufacture a mechanical stopper on the arm 2 (1)
side according to Figs. 3.21 to 24.
If a working envelope position is changed, the soft limit must be changed. As for
the change of soft limits, see the "Instruction Manual: User Parameters" provided
as a separate volume.
