Transporting the Overhead-Mount Type (HMS series)
This section gives the typical installation procedure of the robot unit.
- Since the robot unit weighs approx. 56 kg (124 lbs), prepare a crane and forklift with a hoisting load of 0.2 ton or more.
- The overhead mounting job must be handled by at least two persons including a qualified operator for sling, crane and forklift operation.
- Be sure to put on a helmet, safety shoes, and gloves.
1
When unpacked, the overhead-mount robot unit is fastened with rope as shown below. Make sure that the robot's 2nd-axis arm cannot rotate.
NEVER remove the 2nd-axis arm fixing rope until the installation of the robot unit is completed.
This is to prevent the robot arm from rotating unexpectedly due to gravity.
(HMS)
2
As illustrated below, wind the belt sling around the 1st arm one turn.
3
Load the eyes of the belt sling on the hook of the crane.
4
Remove the four bolts and release the robot unit from the pallet.
When worker A is removing those bolts, worker B should support the robot unit as shown below to prevent it from overturning.
5
While keeping the robot posture, slowly hoist the robot unit with the crane.
Before starting this job, make the work floor clear of obstacles.
6
Hoist the robot unit with the crane up to the height where the robot unit can be turned upside down, stop the crane, and have two workers turn the robot unit upside down as shown below.
7
While having two workers keep the robot unit in the upside-down position, slowly hoist the robot unit with the crane so that the robot base comes into contact with the robot installation face of the overhead-mount frame. Secure the robot unit with four mounting bolts temporarily.
8
Firmly secure the robot unit, referring to "Securing the Robot Unit".
Tightening torque: 128 ±20 Nm
9
After completing bolting, unhook the belt sling from the crane and then remove the 2nd-axis arm fixing rope.
Store the 2nd-axis arm fixing rope for future removal of the robot unit. When removing the robot unit, secure the 2nd arm with the rope to prevent the 2nd arm from rotating.
