Intro
This is an industrial robot make by FANUC that can be programmed, generally to perform repetitive motions. The robot is actually a collection of 3 systems:
- The controller which plans motion, collects signals and causes the robot to move
- The robot arm, which mechanically performs the motion
- The teach pendant, which acts as a human-machine interface to the robot, allowing the operator to type commands and generally configure, program and run the robot.
Rules
- Total payload cannot exceed 11 lbs
- Total payload = mass of end of arm tool + mass of anything the robot lifts or moves under its own power
- The robot should not directly touch food or anything else requiring sanitation
- This is not a "cleanroom" type robot
- The robot should not be exposed to chemicals or caustic substances
- This is not a robot rated for chemical, oil or caustic substance exposure
- Use common sense
- Just because this is a low payload robot does not mean it can't or wont cause harm should someone do something stupid with it
Instructions
- Before starting any project with the robot it's important to have a plan for how it will be used
- Know what the robot is going to be doing
- Are there going to be people working with and or alongside the robot?
- Make sure the task is safe to do before doing it
- Have you designed a tool? Will it be lifting something? Have you checked the payload to see if the robot is capable of lifting it
- only can lift 11lbs at the wrist
Maintenance Info
FAQ
- Are there mechanical drawings of the robot?
- Yes, check the link in the documentation
ToDo
- Move the controller to the bottom of the cart
- Cable routing & cleanup
This was put in the CNC shop because it is controlled numerically by a computer... is this the right space?
