Setup & Operation 4. End Effectors
50 S5 Rev.5
4.3.1 WEIGHT Setting
CAUTION
■
Set t
he total weight of the end effector and the work piece to 5 kg or less.
The
S5 series Manipulators can operate without limitations on the condition that
the load of the Manipulator should be
5 kg or less. When the payload of the
Manipulator is more than
5 kg and less than or equal to 7 kg, refer to the section
“
Restrictions on payload exceeding 5 kg (more than 5 kg and less than or equal
to
7 kg)” in the later part of this section for details.
Always set the Weight parameters of the WEIGHT command according to the
load. Setting a value that is smaller than the actual load may cause errors,
excessive shock, insufficient function of the Manipulator, and/or shorten the life
cycle of parts/mecha
nisms.
The acceptable weight capacity (end effector and work piece) for S5 series Manipulators is
2 kg nominal rating and 5 (7*) kg maximum. When the load (weight of the end effector
and work piece) exceeds the rating, change the setting of the Weight parameter.
After the setting of the Weight parameter is changed, the maximum acceleration /
deceleration and speed of the robot system corresponding to the Weight parameter is set
automatically.
* When the payload of the Manipulator is more than 5 kg and less than or equal to 7 kg,
refer to the section “Restrictions on payload exceeding 5 kg (more than 5 kg and less
than or equal to 7 kg)” in the later part of this section for details.
