General
The DressPack must be maintained regularly to ensure its function. The lifetime
of a process cable package can be extended with the correct preventive
maintenance activities. A daily visual check of the DressPack is highly
recommended, which is normally performed by robot production personnel. It is
essential that the person performing the visual check have basic training in ABB
DressPack.
Wear parts
Wear parts should be replaced before considerable damage occurs to the process
cable package. Replace wear parts before the part is completely damaged.

"Regularly" implies that the activity is to be performed regularly, but the actual interval may not be
specified by the robot manufacturer. The interval depends on the operation cycle of the robot, its
working environment and movement pattern.
Generally, the more contaminated the environment, the closer the maintenance intervals. Also, the
more demanding the movement pattern (sharper bending cable harness), the closer the intervals.
