MH3105 – Type II
The factory home position is located by aligning two homing pins after
installing them into holes in the faceplate and housing. Once both pins are
aligned, some minor programming with the programming pendant is
required. To reset each a MH3105 headstock, proceed as follows:
1. Make sure robot(s) is in home position.
2. Locate the headstock homing hole. Using the programming pendant in
TEACH MODE, jog the faceplate
slowly
until the faceplate homing
hole is just below to the headstock homing hole.
3. Install the faceplate homing pin through the faceplate homing hole in
the faceplate. The pin may need to be tapped in with a hammer.
4. Install the headstock homing pin through the headstock homing hole in
the headstock. The pin may need to be tapped in with a hammer.
5. Slowly jog the faceplate until faceplate homing pin just touches the
headstock homing pin (
) on the housing. If you go too far
both pins will bend, causing an inaccuracy. Slowly jog the faceplate in
reverse rotation until the both pins are straight and still touching each
other.
