Installing The Robot - Omron Hornet 565 Quick Setup Manual

1.4 Installing the Robot

Frame
The Hornet 565 robot is mounted in a user-supplied frame, so that it hangs over the work-
space. A sample frame design is given, with dimensions, in the user's guide. See the following
figure.
Ensure that the robot is oriented such that the Status Display panel faces away from the con-
veyor, if your system has a conveyor. This will give you the best view of the Status Display
panel, and provide the best cross-belt movement of the robot's platform.
Mounting the Robot
1. Position the robot under the mounting frame.
The pallet will not fit in most frames, so the robot will need to be unstrapped from the
pallet and moved manually.
2. Put nylon slings through the six lifting slots. See the following figure.
3. Take up the slack in the slings.
4. Lift the robot up to the mounting pads on the frame.
5. Mount the robot with three M12 x 1.75 screws. Mounting screws are user-supplied; the
length is determined by your frame design.
The screws should be stainless or zinc-plated steel.
Lock washers are not needed, as the robot base has spring-lock Heli-Coil
