2.3 Changing the Mechanical End
This section describes the procedures of changing the mechanical ends of the
1st-axis to 3rd-axis for the VS-G series.
CAUTIONS IN CHANGING THE MECHANICAL ENDS
1. When changing the mechanical ends, design the mechanical stoppers according to your
usage and manufacture them.
2. After changing the mechanical end, the software motion limits (PLIMs, NLIMs) should be
changed not to interfere the mechanical end at the robot operation.
3. The mechanical stoppers may not limit the workable area of the robot. Therefore, do not
enter the robot’s restricted space when the robot power is turned ON.
4. If the robot is collided with the mechanical stopper, the robot will stop by detecting the
collision but the mechanical stopper may be broken.
When the robot is collided with the mechanical stopper, remove the mechanical stopper.
And inspect the robot and surrounding devices, and repair them. Do not re-use the
mechanical stoppers and re-manufacture them.
5. The reference drawings described on this manual cannot be covered on the customer’s
usage conditions sufficiently. Design, manufacture and install the mechanical stoppers
according to your usage conditions.
6. The weight addition by the mechanical stoppers may affect the maximum payload.
7. The failures caused by the mechanical stoppers shall not be covered by the warranty even
if the robot is under warranty.
