Overhead-mounting the Robot
To overhead-mount the robot, an overhead-mount frame and suspension jig are required. Set up those items, referring to the overhead-mount frame shown below and the suspension jigs specified on the following pages.
- Install the robot according to "Securing the Robot Unit" on the previous page. Use bolts of strength class 12.9.
- Keep a space of 250 mm or larger for wiring behind the robot. Fasten the wiring to the mounting face or beam so that the weight of the cables will not be directly applied to the connectors.
Overhead-mount Frame
The figure below shows an example of overhead-mount frame.

When the robot is running at high speed, large reaction forces are exerted on the top plate structure. Take proper measures to protect the top plate from vibration caused by reaction forces. Separate the robot installation top plate structure from other top plate structures within the equipment.
