2.3.4. Inspection during programming and test-running
General
In order to ensure adequate life of the equipment, it is vital that the cables and hoses are
properly installed and operated correctly, with their movement patterns well within the
acceptable limits.
Checking the cable package at the upper end
This procedure details how to inspect the DressPack upper end installation during
programming and test-running the complete installation the very first times.

Action
Note
Inspect the DressPack upper arm installa-
tion.
Detailed in section
.
Check the position of the process cable
support axis 6, in relation to the final
movement pattern of the robot wrist.
Make a note of where the process cable
support axis 6 was finally positioned to
make it easier to replace it in the future.
If required, protective sleeves may be fitted.
Place these where they prevent the
protective hose from rubbing against the
robot´s upper arm as much as possible.

Parts:
•
A: Protective sleeves
Make a note of where the protective
sleeves were finally positioned to make it
easier to replace them in the future.
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.
If required, re-program the robot
movement pattern!
Large rotating movements of the upper arm
(axes 4 and 6 combined) may cause
twisting of the DressPack.
When programming such movements, we
recommend that the rotating movement of
axis 6 is ordered before that of axis 4.
This reduces the risk of damaging the
DressPack upper arm.
Make sure the upper arm protective hose
does not get flattened
during rotating upper
arm movements.
Flattening indicates an overstressed hose
and
increases
the risk of damaging the
DressPack upper arm.
