Installation of Safeguarding
To insure safety, be sure to install the safeguarding. It prevents
unforeseen accidents with personnel and damage to equipment. The
following is quoted for your information and guidance.
(ISO10218)
Responsibility for Safeguarding
The user of a manipulator or robot system shall ensure that the
safeguarding is provided and used in accordance with Sections 6, 7, and
8 of this standard. The means and degree of safeguarding, including any
redundancies, shall correspond directly to the type and level of hazard
presented by the robot system consistent with the robot application.
Safeguarding may include but not be limited to safeguarding devices,
barriers, interlock barriers, perimeter guarding, awareness barriers, and
awareness signals.
3.2
Mounting Procedures for Manipulator Base

The manipulator should be firmly mounted on a base or foundation strong
enough to support the manipulator and withstand repulsion forces during
acceleration and deceleration.
Construct a solid foundation with the appropriate thickness to withstand
maximum repulsion forces of the manipulator as shown in table 3-1
Maximum Repulsion Forces of the Manipulator
During installation, if the flatness is not right, the manipulator shape may
change and its functional ability may be compromised. The flatness for
installation must be kept at 0.5mm or less. Mount the manipulator base in
either of the following ways: chapter 3.2.1 When the Manipulator and
Mounting Fixture are Installed on a Common Base at page 3-3 or
chapter 3.2.2 When the Manipulator is Mounted Directly on the Floor at
page 3-3

Installation
When the Manipulator and Mounting Fixture are Installed on a Common Base
The common base should be rugged and durable to prevent shifting of the
manipulator or the mounting fixture. The thickness of the common base is
50mm or more and an M20 size or larger anchor bolt is recommended.
For the installation dimensions of the manipulator installation base, refer
to the dimensions in fig. 3-2 Direct Mounting on the Floor at page 3-4
Affix the manipulator securely with the hexagon head bolts M20 (90mm
long recommended). Tighten the bolts and anchor bolts securely so that
they will not work loose during operation. See "Fig. 3-1 Mounting on the
Common Base" for the method.

3.2.2
When the Manipulator is Mounted Directly on the Floor

The floor should be strong enough to support the manipulator. Construct a
solid foundation with the appropriate thickness to withstand maximum
repulsion forces of the manipulator. As a rough standard, when there is a
concrete thickness (floor) is 200mm or more, the manipulator base can be
fixed directly to the floor with anchor bolts M20. Before mounting the
manipulator, however, check that the floor is level and that all cracks, etc.
are repaired. A non-concrete floor or a floor less than 200mm thick is
insufficient for installation, even if the floor is concrete.

Inspection Schedule
Inspection Schedule
Proper inspections are essential not only to assure that the mechanism
will be able to function for a long period, but also to prevent malfunctions
and assure safe operation. Inspection intervals are displayed in six levels.
Conduct periodical inspections according to the inspection schedule in
table 9-1 Inspection Items at page 9-3
In table 9-1 Inspection Items at page 9-3 the inspection items are
classified into three types of operation: operations which can be
performed by personnel authorized of the user, operations which can be
performed by personnel being trained, and operations which can be
performed by service company personnel. Only specified personnel are to
do inspection work.
The inspection interval must be based on the servo power
supply on time.
NOTE
For axes which are used very frequently (in handling applications, etc.), it is recommended that inspections be conducted at shorter Intervals. Contact your Yaskawa
representative.
