2.9 Notes on safe operation
Incorrect handling of the personnel
Incorrect handling and assembly may impair the product's safety
and cause serious injuries and considerable material damage.
• Avoid any manner of working that may interfere with the
function and operational safety of the product.
• Use the product as intended.
• Observe the safety notes and assembly instructions.
• Do not expose the product to any corrosive media. This does
not apply to products that are designed for special
environments.
• Eliminate any malfunction immediately.
• Observe the care and maintenance instructions.
• Observe the current safety, accident prevention and
environmental protection regulations regarding the product's
application field.
2.9.1 Handling
During automated loading or unloading, particularly with high
loading weights, always work with the handling system at reduced
speed. The handling system must be positioned and fastened
precisely to guarantee that the connection is not offset.
Check the approach position of the pallet handling at regular
intervals. The position of the handling system can change slightly,
particularly with high loading weights or when the clamping pallet
is bearing the loading weight significantly towards the front. In the
event of eccentricity on the coupling interfaces, the relevant
traveling axes of the handling system must be adjusted. The pallet
changing system must lie flush with the pallet adapter with no tilt
angle and eccentricity when joining.
A rigid handling system must be used with high loading weights.
For the automated coupling process, it is recommended to use the
air purge to clean the coupling interface.
The pallet handling should be moved out of the machining area
once pallet loading is complete. On leaving the machining area,
the clamping system must be positioned such as to prevent dirt
from entering the interface.
Maintenance specifications
Follow the maintenance and care instructions. These instructions
are based on a normal working environment. If the pallet changing
system is to be operated in an environment with abrasive dusts or
corrosive or aggressive fumes or fluids, prior approval must be
obtained from SCHUNK.
