The  risk  assessment  is  the  responsibility  of  the  integrator.  Based  on  its  results,  the  integrator 
determines whether additional safety measures (e.g., safeguards) are needed to protect the operator 
working with the robotic arm in the installation. 

Before installation, carry out the following preparatory works: 

1.

 

Unpack the robotic arm and other components. 

2.

 

Check the supply package against the list in 

Section 1.3.

 

3.

 

Check the appearance of the robotic arm and other components for any damages or defects. 

 

If you find any obvious damages or defects or find out that any of the supply package 
components is missing, contact the dealer or the manufacturer. 

 

 

When unpacking and installing the robotic arm, make sure not to move or rotate the 
robot joints manually because this can cause damage to the arm.

 

Installation of the PULSE robotic arm requires completing the following two steps: 

1.

 

Mechanical integration 

2.

 

Electrical integration 

2.1.1

 

Continuous power supply requirement 

For  safety  reasons, 

the  integrator  shall  be  obliged  to  provide  continuous  power  supply

  to  the 

robotic arm (e.g., installing an uninterruptible power supply, a redundancy circuit, etc.). Otherwise, 
we cannot guarantee that the robotic arm maintains its position during a power outage, which may 
result in serious damage to its components. 

2.2

 

Mechanical integration 

 

Pinching hazard! When performing mounting works, keep your fingers away from 
the arm joints to avoid entrapment. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Make sure 
long hair is tied back.

 

2.2.1

 

Mounting the robotic arm 

Though the footprint of the PULSE robotic arm is as small as 120 mm (see 

Figure 2-1

), you need 

to  account  for  the  arm  workspace  (

Figure 1-4

) when  choosing  a  mounting  location.  This  is 

important to exclude collisions with other equipment or objects. 

The  recommended  mounting  position  for  the  PULSE  robotic  arm  is 

vertical, 

on  a 

horizontal 

immovable surface

. The mounting surface should be: 

 

flat, solid, and stable

 

 

sustain 8 times the weight of the robotic arm (see 

Table 1-2

)
