Replacing and adjusting the escaper and the robot escaper guide
CAUTION:
Turn OFF the power switch before replacing.
Turn ON the power switch when adjustments are necessary. Before replacing,
remove all the screws from the hopper, the rail, and the escaper.
When using screws with a different diameter, replace the escaper, rail, passing plate and the
robot escaper guide.
•
The robot escaper guide SIER1017 - matches the 1.0 ~ 1.7 type of screws.
•
The robot escaper guide SIER2030 - matches the 2.0 ~ 3.0 type of screws
Please check that the model numbers correspond with the screws being used.
Replace and adjust the escaper and escaper guide after removing the attaching plate for the
holding plate as well as the holding plate.
After replacement, be sure to adjust and check the parts in the area of the escaper.
When you remove the escaper attaching screw, please use the driver for M2 (bit No.0).
Summary of the adjustment:
Adjust moving parts to correspond with the rail. In terms of height, the level of the escaper
surface should be lower than the level of the rail surface. Line up the rail groove with an
escaper notch at the end of the reference point run. A reference point run is the detecting of
the starting point of the escaper motor rotation. Also, make sure there is no contact with the
side of the rail and the robot escaper guide.
