Tooling Recommendations
Installation of tooling and fixtures should be performed by personnel who
are familiar with the operation of this system. Tooling and fixtures are
supplied by the customer.
There are two system configurations possible with the MH-SERIES
POSITIONER headstock only and headstock/tailstock with MotoMount. To
ensure optimal performance from the MH-SERIES POSITIONER tooling
system, Yaskawa Motoman makes the following recommendations for
each configuration.
5.1
Headstock Only – Tooling Recommendations
The stand-alone headstock assembly provides the only support for tooling
and production parts. Proper tooling design directly effects the headstock
performance and longevity. All tooling practices apply to the headstock
assembly whether it is accompanied by a column or not.
