Assembly
• To guarantee the necessary tightening torque, the adapter plate
must have a sufficient height.
• The mounting screws must not be too long in order to prevent
damage to the internal electronics of the force-torque-sensor.
The adapter plate must have an even and stable surface running
parallel to the force-torque-sensor to prevent distortion during
operation.
The catalog data sheet contains detailed information and precise
manufacturing instructions for possible adapter plate
design,

NOTICE
Risk of damage to the sensor!
The sensor can get damaged if the specified range of
measurement is exceeded.
•
Only mount the sensor if the corresponding interface has
been put into operation to check the saturation.
•
If an error occurs during assembly, wait until the error
disappears.
NOTICE
Incorrect assembly will cause material damage!
The drilling patterns on the robot and tool side of the product are
identical but the screw depths differ! The screws for the robot
side can cause damage to the product on the tool side.
•
Take care not to mix up the robot and tool side of the product.
NOTICE
Risk of material damage if alignment pins are too long!
Using alignment pins that are too long creates a gap between the
adapter plate and the product and can damage the product.
•
Use alignment pins of the correct length.
•
Make sure the adapter plate and product are flush.
NOTE
• Secure all screws with Loctite
®
242. To do this, apply adhesive
to the exposed screw threads.
• Use adhesive only once. Always apply new adhesive if reusing
fastening elements.
