2.8 Making robot ready for operation (Foundry Prime)
2.8.1. Additional installation procedure
General
Robots delivered with the Foundry Prime protection are specially designed to work in water
jet cleaning cells with 100% humidity and alkaline detergent. To ensure that the protection
offers the best reliability, some measures are needed during installation of the robot according
to the procedures below.
NOTE!
For best reliability, it is also of highest importance that the special maintenance instructions
for the Foundry Prime robot are followed and documented.
Commissioning
•
Never switch off the overpressure in motors and serial measurement compartment
during cooling down of robot after it has been switched off.
•
When turning off an cleaning cell we recommend that the humid air inside a cell is
ventilated out, to avoid that the humid air is sucked into e.g. gearboxes due to the
raised vacuum when cooled down.
