4.3 Mounting
DANGER:
Make sure the robot arm is properly and securely bolted in place.
The mounting surface shall be sturdy.
CAUTION:
If the robot is bathed in water over an extended time period it
might be damaged. The robot should not be mounted in water
or in a wet environment.
Tool The robot tool flange has four M6 thread holes for attaching a tool to the
robot. The M6 bolts need to be tightened with 9 N m. If very accurate repositioning
of the tool is desired, the Ø6 hole is provided for use with a pin. Figure 4.2 shows
where to drill holes and mount the screws.
DANGER:
1. Make sure the tool is properly and securely bolted in place.
2. Make sure that the tool is constructed such that it cannot cre-
ate a hazardous situation by dropping a part unexpectedly.
Control Box The control box can be hung on a wall, or it can be placed on the
ground. A clearance of 50 mm on each side is needed for sufficient airflow. Extra
brackets for mounting can be bought.
Teach Pendant The teach pendant can be hung on a wall or on the control box.
Extra brackets for mounting the teach pendant can be bought. Make sure that no
one can trip over the cable.
DANGER:
1. Make sure that the control box, teach pendant, and cables do
not come into contact with liquids. A wet control box could
cause death.
2. The control box and teach pendant must not be exposed to
dusty or wet environments that exceed IP20 rating. Pay spe-
cial attention to environments with conductive dust.
