[1] When using a linear movement robot
Applicable robots:
All “X” series single-axis robots except single-axis rotary movement robots (see [2])
Linear movement axes (X, Y, Z axes) of “X” series Cartesian robots
The above robots use the stroke end origin detection method. The motor side stroke end
is set as the origin at the factory prior to shipping
Set the origin position while referring to the following section in the robot controller
instruction manual.
When using ERCX, SRCX, DRCX or TRCX controllers:
See “9-1-1 Return-to-origin by the search method” in Chapter 9.
When using a QRCX controller:
See “11-9 Absolute Reset” in Chapter 11.
When using a RCX40 controller:
See “11-8 Absolute Reset” in Chapter 11.
CAUTION
Avoid changing the origin position to the non-motor side. Changing the origin position
to the non-motor side may cause a positional shift or robot breakdowns, and is also
dangerous in some cases. If the origin position must be changed, please consult our
sales office or dealer.
[2] When using a rotary movement robot
Applicable robots:
R5/R10/R20 (“X” series single-axis robots)
RF
(R axis of “X” series Cartesian robots SXYx/MXYx)
RL/RH (R axis of “X” series Cartesian robots HXYx)
RM/RS (R axis of “X” series Cartesian robots ZRM/ZRS)
On the above robots, the customer should set the origin at the desired position.
Move the robot to the desired position and set it as the origin while referring to the
following section in the robot controller instruction manual.
When using ERCX, SRCX, DRCX or TRCX controllers:
See “9-1-1 Return-to-origin by the search method” in Chapter 9.
When using a QRCX controller:
See “11-9 Absolute Reset” in Chapter 11.
When using a RCX40 controller:
See “11-8 Absolute Reset” in Chapter 11.
After setting the origin position, affix the stickers (triangular stickers supplied with the
robot) to both the tool side and workpiece side so that they can be used as the alignment
marks. Use these marks as the reference position the next time the origin must be set.
