3.4 End Effector
More attention must be paid to the design of the
end effector to prevent power loss or any other
errors that could lead to workpiece falling or
damage.
The tool-type end effector is usually equipped
with high voltage, high temperature and active
rotary shaft. Special attention should be paid to the
operating safety.
The end effector should be mounted firmly on the
robot to avoid workpiece release during operation
which may cause personal injury or hazard.
The end effector may be equipped with its own
control unit. Be sure the control unit does not
interfere with robot operation.
3.5 Pneumatic, Hydraulic System
When using the pneumatic or hydraulic system,
the gripped workpiece may fall due to insufficient
pressure or gravity.
The pneumatic system must be equipped with
the relief valve, so that can be applied in an
emergency.
3.6 Emergency Stop
The robot or other control component should have
at least one device for immediate halt of n
function, such as an emergency stop switch.
The emergency stop button must be installed in an
easily accessible location for quick stop.
While executing an emergency stop, power to the
servo motor will be cut, and all movements will
be stopped. And the control system will be shut
down. Emergency stop should be reset if the
restoration of operating procedure is wanted.
Avoid using emergency stop to replace a normal
stop procedure. This could lead to unnecessary
