2.1 Transportation

[1] Handling of the Robot

Unless otherwise specified, the actuators are wrapped individually when the product is shipped out.

(1) Handling of the Packed Product

x Do not damage or drop. The package is not applied with any special treatment that enables it to

resist an impact caused by a drop or crash.

x An operator should never attempt to carry a heavy package on their own. Also, use an

appropriate way for transportation.

x If the shipping box is to be left standing, it should be in a horizontal position. Follow the

instruction if there is any for the packaging condition.

x Do not step or sit on the package. x Do not put any load that may cause a deformation or breakage of the package.

(2) Handling after Unpackaged

x Do not carry the actuator by holding the cable, or do not move it by pulling the cable. x Hold the body base when transporting the actuator. x Do not hit or drop the product while carrying. x Do not give any excessive force to any of the sections in the actuator.

2. Installation

[2] Handling of Multi-Axes Type

This is the case that this product is delivered with other actuators being combined. Multi-axes type will be delivered in a package with an outer case fixed to a wooden base.

(1) Handling of the Packed Product

Do not damage or drop. The package is not applied with any special treatment that enables it to resist an impact caused by a drop or crash.

x An operator should never attempt to carry a heavy package on their own. Also, use an

appropriate way for transportation.

x When suspending the package using ropes, pass the ropes from underneath the

reinforcement frames at the bottom of the base. When lifting with a forklift, also place the forks underneath the base.

x Do not apply an impact on the package or let it bounce when putting it down. x Do not step or sit on the package. x Do not put any load that may cause a deformation or breakage of the package.

(2) Handling after Unpackaged

Appropriately fix the end of the actuators if it is overhanging so it would not widely shake with external vibration. If the actuator assembly is transported without the ends being secured, do not apply an impact of 0.3G or more.

x In the case that the actuator needs to be carried up with ropes or another method, be sure to

use an appropriate cushioning to avoid the robot being deformed or put on an excessive pressure. And also, be sure to keep the robot in a stable and horizontal posture. Make a tool to utilize the attachment holes and tapped holes on the actuator and attach it if necessary.

x Do not attempt to apply load to the actuator. Also, avoid the cables being pinched or caused

an excessive deformation.

[3] Handling of Robot Mounted on Mechanical Equipment (System)

Followings are the cautions for when transporting the actuators installed in the machinery equipment (system) in the whole system.

x If any end of the actuator is overhanging, secure it properly to avoid significant movement

due to external vibration. If the actuator assembly is transported without the ends being secured, do not apply an impact of 0.3G or more.

x Do not attempt to apply load to actuators when hanging the machinery equipment (system)

with tools such as a rope. Also, avoid the cables being pinched or caused an excessive deformation.

2.2 Installation and Storage • Preservation Environment

[1] Installation Environment

The actuator should be installed in a location other than those specified below. In general, the installation environment should be one in which an operator can work without protective gear. Also provide sufficient work space required for maintenance inspection.

x Where the actuator receives radiant heat from strong heat sources such as heat treatment furnaces x Where the ambient temperature exceeds the range of 0 to 40qC x Where the temperature changes rapidly and condensation occurs x Where the relative humidity exceeds 85% RH x Where the actuator receives direct sunlight x Where the actuator is exposed to corrosive or combustible gases x Where the ambient air contains a large amount of powder dust, salt or iron (at level exceeding what is

normally expected in an assembly plant)

x Where the actuator is subject to splashed water, oil (including oil mist or cutting fluid) or chemical

solutions

x Where the actuator receives impact or vibration

If the actuator is used in any of the following locations, provide sufficient shielding measures:

x Where noise generates due to static electricity, etc. x Where the actuator is subject to a strong electric or magnetic field x Where the actuator is subject to ultraviolet ray or radiation

[2] Storage • Preservation Environment

The storage • preservation environment should be similar to the installation environment. In addition, make sure condensation will not occur when the actuator is to be stored or preserved for a long period of time. Unless specified, we do not include drying agents when shipping the actuator. If you are storing the actuator in an environment where condensation might occur, you must treat the entire shipping box, or treat the actuator itself after unpacking, to prevent condensation. The unit can withstand temperatures up to 60qC during a short storage/preservation period, but only up to 50qC if the storage/preservation period is longer than one month.

The actuator should be lying flat during storage • preservation. If the actuator is to be stored in a packed state, follow the specified actuator position if indicated.



[3] Handling of the Robot Mounted on Mechanical Equipment (System)

The following are the cautions for when transporting the actuators installed in the machinery equipment (system) in the whole system.

x Affix the table so they would not move while transporting. x If any end of the actuator is overhanging, secure it properly to avoid significant movement due to

external vibration. If the actuator assembly is transported without the ends being secured, do not apply an impact of 0.3G or more.

x Do not attempt to apply load to actuators or connector box when hanging the machinery equipment

(system) with tools such as a rope. Also, avoid the cables being pinched or caused an excessive deformation.

3. Connecting with the Controller

When designing an application system, incorrect wiring or connection of each cable may cause unexpected problems such as a disconnected cable or poor contact. The following explains examples of prohibited handling of cables.

Warning: For wiring, please follow the warnings stated below. When constructing a

system as the machinery equipment, pay attention to the wiring and connection of each cable so they are conducted properly. Not following them may cause not only a malfunction such as cable breakage or connection failure, or an operation error, but also electric shock or electric leakage, or may even cause a fire.

• Use dedicated cables of IAI indicated in this instruction manual. Contact us if you wish to have a change to the specifications of the dedicated cables.

• Make sure to turn the power off in the process of power line or cable connection or disconnection.

• Do not attempt to cut a dedicated cable with connectors on both ends to extend, shorten or re-joint it.

• Hold the dedicated cable to avoid mechanical force being applied to the terminals and connectors.

• Use a cable pipe or duct to have an appropriate protection when there is a possibility of mechanical damage on a dedicated cable.

• In case a dedicated cable is to be used at a moving part, make sure to lay out the cable without applying any force to pull the connector or extreme bend on the cable. Do not attempt to use the cable with a bending radius below the allowable value.

• Make certain that the connectors are plugged properly. Insufficient connection may cause an operation error, thus it is extremely risky.

• Do not lay out the cables to where the machine runs over them.

• Pay attention to the cable layout so it would not hit peripherals during an operation. In case it does, have an appropriate protection such as a cable track.

• When a cable is used hanging on the ceiling, prevent an environment that the cable swings with acceleration or wind velocity.

• Make sure there is not too much friction inside the cable storage equipment.

• Do not apply radiated heat to power line or cables.

• Have a sufficient radius for bending, and avoid a bend concentrating on one point.

Steel Strap (Piano Wire)

Tie them up softly.

• Do not let the cable bend, kink or twist.

• Do not pull the cable with a strong force.

• Pay attention not to concentrate the twisting force to one point on a cable.

• Do not pinch, drop a heavy object onto or cut the cable.

• When a cable is fastened to affix, make sure to have an appropriate force and do not tighten too much.

Do not use spiral tube in any position where cables are bent frequently.

• PIO line, communication line, power and driving lines are to be put separately from each other and do not tie them together. Arrange so that such lines are independently routed in the duct.

Power Line

Duct

I/O Line (Flat Cable, etc.)

3. Connecting with the Controller

• If using a cable track, arrange the wiring so that there is no entanglement or kink of the cables in the cable carrier or flexible tube, and do not bind the cables so that the cables are relatively free. (Arrange the wiring so the cables are not to be pulled when bent.)

• The occupied volume rate for the cables, etc., inside the cable track should be 60% or less.

 ٧ Regarding the load inertia

The rotary actuator is an actuator that applies a rotational torque to the loaded work piece and makes the work piece have a rotational motion. The rotational torque applies the load inertia and angular acceleration that can be figured out with the following formula.

T = J•Į

T : Torque N•m (kgf•cm) J : Load inertia kg•m

(kgf•cm•s2)

Į : Angular acceleration rad/s

i.e. applying a torque to an object with load inertia generates an angular acceleration. Therefore, for the rotary actuator, the loadable amount is expressed with the load inertia.

٧ Calculation of the Load Inertia

Load inertia is a specific value for an object determined by the weight and profile. It is to be calculated as;

J = ³ r

dM r : Distance from center dM : Small mass

For example, if the loaded work piece is offset from the rotary shaft, the following formula can be applied.

J = M•r

M : Mass of the loaded piece (kg) r : Distance from the center (Offset distance) (m)

(Offset distance)
