VT Rev.1
4.3.1 Weight Setting
CAUTION
■
Set the total weight of the end effector and the work piece smaller than the
maximum payload.
The VT series Manipulators can operate without limitations on the condition
unless and until the load exceeds this maximum payload. Always set the
Weight parameters of the WEIGHT command according to the load. Setting a
value that is smaller than the actual load may cause errors, excessive shock,
insufficient function of the Manipulator, and/or shorten the life cycle of
parts/mechanisms.
The acceptable weight capacity (end effector and work piece) for VT series Manipulators
is as follows:
Rated Maximum
3 kg
6 kg
Change the setting of the Weight parameter according to the load.
After changing the Weight parameter setting, the maximum acceleration/deceleration and
speed of the robot system corresponding to the load is set automatically.
