NOTE
: The safety scanning laser will display a flashing icon of a windshield and wiper
when it detects that its lens needs cleaning.
NOTE:
When the tires or floor get dirty, the wheels will tend to slip, and the
AMR can fail to localize. This is common near goals. Both the floor and the tires
need to be kept clean.
NOTE:
The frequency of these procedures will depend on your particular sys-
tem, its operating environment, and the amount of usage. Operating in an envir-
onment with a lot of dust or dirt will require more frequent cleaning. Use the
intervals in this section as guidelines, and modify the schedule as needed.
Tires
Occasionally clean the tires with a mild soapy solution. Remove any dirt or debris that may
accumulate on the tires, because these can degrade the AMR’s performance.
Casters
Occasionally clean the casters with a mild soapy solution. Remove any dirt or debris that may
accumulate on them, because these can degrade the AMR’s performance.
This applies to the casters on the LD Platform Cart Transporter as well as on the cart.
Axles
Keep the axles free of hair, string, or anything that may wrap around and bind up the plat-
form’s drive.
Lasers
Occasionally clean the lenses of all lasers. Use only alcohol-based, non-abrasive cleaners, and
wipe thoroughly.
