3.1
Safety Guard Installation
To insure safety, be sure to install safety guards. They prevent unforeseen accidents with per-
sonnel and damage to equipment. The following is quoted for your information and guidance.
(ISO 10218)
Responsibility for Safeguarding
The user of a manipulator or robot system shall ensure that safeguards are provided and used
in accordance with Sections 6, 7, and 8 of this standard. The means and degree of safeguard-
ing, including any redundancies, shall correspond directly to the type and level of hazard pre-
sented by the robot system consistent with the robot application. Safeguarding may include
but not be limited to safeguarding devices, barriers, interlock barriers, perimeter guarding,
awareness barriers, and awareness signals.
3.2
Mounting Procedures for Manipulator Baseplate
The manipulator should be firmly mounted on a baseplate or foundation strong enough to sup-
port the robot and withstand repulsion forces during acceleration and deceleration.
Construct a solid foundation with the appropriate thickness to withstand maximum repulsion
forces of the manipulator.
During installation, if out of the plane is not right, the manipulator shape may change and its
functional ability may be compromised. Out of the plane for installation must be kept at 0.5mm
or less. Mount the baseplate in either of the following ways: 3.2.1 or 3.2.2.
Table. 1 Maximum repulsion forces of the manipulator
Horizontal rotating maximum torque
(S-axis moving direction) 54000N • m
(5500kgf• m)
Vertical rotating maximum torque
(LU-axis moving direction) 88300N • m
(9000kgf• m)
