Base table
A base table for anchoring the Manipulator is not supplied. Please make or obtain the base
table for your Manipulator. The shape and size of the base table differ depending on the
intended use of the robot system. The following is the basic requirements of Manipulator
table for your reference.
The base table must not only be able to bear the weight of the Manipulator but also be able
to withstand the dynamic movement of the Manipulator when it operates at maximum
acceleration/deceleration. Ensure that there is enough strength on the base table by
attaching reinforcing materials such as crossbeams.
The torque and reaction force produced by the movement of the Manipulator are as follows:
Model number C8-A701*** C8-

Max. Horizontal reaction force (N) 1,200 1,300 1,300
Max. Vertical rotating torque (N·m) 1,900 2,200 3,400
Max. Vertical rotating torque (N) 6,600 6,000 7,800
The plate for the Manipulator mounting face should be 30 mm thick or more and made of
steel to reduce vibration. The surface roughness of the steel plate should be 25
μ m or less.
The base table must be secured on the floor to prevent it from moving.
The Manipulator must be installed horizontally.
When using a leveler to adjust the height of the base table, use a screw with M16 diameter
or more.
