4.2.2.3 End Mounting Caution
The TM12/14 Series uses four M6 threaded holes on the end flange and four M6 screws for mounting
tools. The strength of the M6 screw should be 8.8 or above, and the tightening torque of 9 Nm is
recommended. If your application requires higher precision, you can use two positioning pins with a
diameter of 6 mm for a more secure mounting.
DANGER:
1. Tools must be properly tightened when using this product. Improper tightening may
cause the tool or part to fall out, or even cause personal injury and death.
2. Follow the rule L

CAUTION:
The application of mounting an actuator in the tool end with high vibration or impact may cause
damage to the robot. Design the tool with proper anti-vibration/impact such as
damping/cushion or shock absorber, or use low impact actuator such as pneumatic
cylinder/system with shock absorb/buffer/cushion design to prevent this.
