3.1
Installation of the Safeguarding
To insure safety, be sure to install safeguarding. It prevents unforeseen accidents with
personnel and damage to equipment. The following is quoted for your information and
guidance.
Responsibility for Safeguarding (ISO 10218)
The user of a manipulator or robot system shall ensure that safeguards are provided and used
in accordance with Sections 6, 7, and 8 of this standard. The means and degree of
safeguarding, including any redundancies, shall correspond directly to the type and level of
hazard presented by the robot system consistent with the robot application. Safeguarding may
include but not be limited to safeguarding devices, barriers, interlock barriers, perimeter
guarding, awareness barriers, and awareness signals.
3.2
Mounting Procedures for MOTOPOS Baseplate
The MOTOPOS should be firmly mounted on a baseplate or foundation strong enough to
support the MOTOPOS and withstand repulsion forces in acceleration and deceleration.
Construct a solid foundation with the appropriate thickness to withstand maximum repulsion
forces of the MOTOPOS.
The flatness for installation must be kept at 0.5 mm or less: if the flatness of the mounting face
is insufficient, the shape of the MOTOPOS may deform and its functional ability may be com-
promised. Mount the baseplate either as indicated in " Fig. 3.2.1 In Case of Installing the
MOTOPOS and Manipulator on a Common Baseplate " and " Fig. 3.2.2 In Case of Mounting
the MOTOPOS on the Floor ".
