Mounting The Robot And Tool; Using The Robot Without An Imm; Euromap 12 To Euromap 67 Conversion - Universal Robots UR3/CB3 Original Instructions Manual

17.3 Mounting the robot and tool

Before constructing a tool and a mounting surface, the integrator must consider how joint 4 (wrist
2) is orientated during pick and place. Joint 1, 2 and 3 has parallel axes and if joint 4 orientates joint
5 to the left or to the right then joint 5 is parallel to the other three axes, which forms a singularity.
It is generally a good idea to place the robot in a 45 degree angle or constructing a tool where the
surface of the tool flange of the robot points down when gripping the items from the vertical mould
surface.

17.4 Using the robot without an IMM

To operate the robot without an IMM, a by-pass plug must be used to close the emergency and
safety signals. The only alternative is to permanently uninstall the interface as described in 19.1.

17.5 EUROMAP 12 to EUROMAP 67 conversion

To interface an IMM with EUROMAP 12 interface an E12 - E67 adaptor must be used. Several
adaptors is available on the marked from different manufacturers. Unfortunately most adaptors
are constructed for specific robots or IMMs assuming specific designs choices. This means that
some adaptors will not connect the UR robot and your IMM correctly. It is recommended to read
both the EUROMAP 12 and EUROMAP 67 standard whenever using or constructing an adaptor.
A list with common errors is shown below:

CAUTION:
If you do not install a light curtain you may damage both the robot
and the mould.
