Installation for Safeguarding

To ensure safe, be sure to install safeguarding. It prevents unforeseen accidents with
personnel and damage to equipment. Refer to the quoted clause for your information and
guidance.
Responsibility for Safeguarding (ISO10218)
The user of a robot or robot system shall ensure that safeguards are 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.

Mounting Procedures for robot Base

The robot should be firmly mounted on a baseplate or foundation strong enough to support
the robot and withstand repulsion forces during acceleration and deceleration.
Construct a solid foundation with the appropriate thickness to withstand maximum repulsion
forces of the robot referring to "Table 1: Maximum Repulsion Forces".
A baseplate flatness must be kept at 0.5 mm or less: insufficient flatness of installation
surface may deform the Robot shape and affect its functional abilities. Mount the Robot base
as described in "3.2.1 Mounting Example" at Page 13.

● The treaded holes for the robot base are M12. Use mounting bolts with specifications
conforming to ISO898-1 property class: 10.9 or 12.9
● The plate for the robot mounting face shoud be 20 mm thick ore more and made of steel to
reduce vibration. The surface roughness of the steel plate shoud be 25 µm or less.
● The table must be secured on the floor or wall to prevent it from moving.
● The robot must be installed horizontally.
● Level the robot horizontal and vertical direction.
3.2.1
Mounting Example
For the first process, anchor the base plate firmly to the ground. The baseplate should be
rugged and durable to prevent shifting of the robot or the mounting fixture. It is recommend to
prepare a base plate of 20 mm or more thickness, and anchor bolts of M16 or larger size.
