Step 5:  

a.

 

Turn off magnet, place gripper on the target in Limiting Position 2 and turn magnet full on. Some recommended 
positions are provided below. 

i.

 

The minimum steel in vicinity (for complex or bin picking shapes) 

ii.

 

The worst contact. 

iii.

 

The maximum allowable air gap (coatings) 

iv.

 

The minimum for one pole, but the maximum for the other 

NOTE: The unit is centered on the part but an air gap of 0.2mm approximately equal to 2 layers of standard copy paper is added 
between the pole shoes and part. Artificial air gaps can be used to simulate scale, paint, or debris on a part but it is preferable to use 

the authentic “worst

-

case” allowable part condition rather than nonferrous shims.
