Commissioning
DANGER!
Danger resulting from incorrect commissioning
Commissioning must be performed only by persons with technical and electrotechnical
training who were also authorized by fruitcore robotics GmbH.
Before commissioning:
Make sure that any transport equipment or transport securing devices have been removed.
Make sure that the robot and any add-on parts are screwed on properly and safely.
Ensure that there is sufficient room for the robot arm to move freely. There must be no obsta-
cles or persons in the working area.
Note that the range of the robot and thus the danger zone change with add-on parts and
workpieces.
If the robot is combined with other machinery in a system, make sure that the other machin-
ery cannot damage the robot.
Make sure that the safety measures according to the risk assessment have been put in place
and configured to ensure that the commissioning personnel, operators, and bystanders are
protected.
Familiarize yourself with the work environment of the robot system prior to commissioning.
Ensure that suitable protection devices (e.g. separating protection device, light curtain, or
safety laser scanner) were installed. The protection devices mus
t stop the robot’s movement
within the danger zone. Check the protection devices for proper function.
In case of damage to the robot, horstCONTROL, or mechanical interface, as well as all parts
of the protection device, the robot must not be used.
Protection devices (emergency stop, safety stop) must be connected only to safety-critical
interfaces and must be designed to be redundant.
Check the emergency stop and safety stop functions daily.
Do not enter the danger zone of the robot during operation, and do not touch the robot.
Make sure that the robot is grounded (power plug connected to PE protective conductor). A
suitable RCD (residual current operated device) must be installed.
Before the power supply is switched on, it must be ensured that the connection cable is con-
nected between the horstCONTROL and the robot, and the power cable is connected to the
power supply.
