ABB DressPack IRB 6640, Product Manual

Page: 162 / 370

Note Action
If required, re-program the robot move-
ment pattern! Check the operating cycle of the robot, to
make sure the movement pattern of the
wrist does not cause extensive wear or
strain of the cable package. 4
When programming such movements, we
recommend that the rotating movement
of axis 6 is ordered before that of axis 4. Large rotating movements of the upper arm
(axes 4 and 6 combined) may cause twist-
ing of the DressPack. 5
This reduces the risk of damaging the
DressPack upper arm.
Flattening indicates an overstressed hose
and
increases the risk of damaging the
DressPack upper arm.
Make sure the upper arm protective hose
does not get flattened during rotating upper
arm movements.
6
Collisions and excessive bending will in-
crease the risk of damaging the equip-
ment.
Make sure no combined rotating move-
ments of axes 5 and 6 causes collisions
between the
cables/hoses or the process
cable support axis 6 and the upper arm.
7
Minimum bending radius: 10 x cable/hose
diameter.
Such movements may also cause excess-
ive bending of cables or hoses.
