    1.3. Intended use The intended use of PARU Mini is to drive tooling units supplied by Rhein-Nadel Automation GmbH (RNA) or tooling units selected in consultation with RNA. These tooling units are buffering or sorting devices matched to the PARU Mini and which serve for the orderly feeding of bulk parts for automatic pick-up by a downstream process (for example a handling device or escapement).

    3. Certain work such as replacing electromagnets, leaf springs or other components of the PARU-Mini must only be done by qualified personnel of Rhein-Nadel Automation GmbH or after previous consultation with qualified personnel of the Rhein-Nadel Automation GmbH. For carrying out such work, please contact our customer service: vertrieb@rna.de 1.5. Residual hazards Danger! The PARU-Mini is intended to complete / to be incorporated into a complete system.
  • Page 6: Product Description

    PARU Mini requires no manipulations. The complete tuning/ matching of the system is done in RNA’s factory by means of simulation-based system engineering in accordance with user’s requirements. PARU Mini is an incomplete machine as defined by the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
  • Page 7 Notice! PARU-Mini is a precision machine. The function of the drive depends on the accuracy of the design of the tooling and its coating. For correct function of the equipment, the controller settings as well as the filling rate, state of the parts to be fed and qualities of threaded assemblies must also be in line with the specifications in these operating and installation instructions.
  • Page 8: Automatic Mode Change / Pin Assignment

    Due to the PARU Mini’s design with individual spring legs it can be adapted to a wide range of tooling units in addition to the ones specified above. This must be done in consultation with RNA however. As a rule the equipment user only needs to observe the tightening torque for the tooling fasteners. For the sake of completeness and in anticipation of potential maintenance work find below the tightening torques for all relevant threaded assemblies of PARU Mini (all screws have property class 10.9 or better):...
  • Page 9 PARU Mini drives do not require the operator to take care of selecting the right operating mode. The operating mode is determined by a code in the RNA vibrating drive connector. A wire jumper from pin 3 to 4 in the connector switches the controller to mode 2: 100 or 120 Hz.

    2.4. Functional description PARU Mini is a two-mass system. With PARU Mini, exciter mass and useful mass are connected to each other by spring leaves inclined at a fixed angle. The usable mass also includes the tooling. The vibratory system is excited by magnets. This results in an oscillating motion of the usable mass. This motion accelerates the parts in horizontal and vertical direction, causing them to move along the tooling.

    Installation Instructions 3.1. Shipping and handling PARU Mini is packed for shipment in a suitable cardboard box. If the cardboard box is severely damaged on delivery, please contact the forwarding agent without delay. Please observe the forwarding agent's Terms and Conditions so as not to forfeit your right to claim damages due to errors in form. For unpacking and internal transport please observe the instruction sheets attached, if any.

    The optimum feed rate of PARU Mini for one or several parts of Buyer has already been determined in RNA Digital Solutions GmbH’s factory. We strongly recommend that you not deviate from the amplitude and frequency defined for the respective tooling.
  • Page 13: Operating Instructions

    If PARU Mini runs smoothly at the target frequency and amplitude associated to the tooling, the upstream process (feeding system) can be started with parts for final adjustment of their transition to the PARU Mini. Operating Instructions 4.1. Operation For operation of the PARU Mini observe the following items: In standard configuration the feeding system is switched on and off via the controller.
  • Page 14: Maintenance Items And Intervals

    For tooling changes make sure that the upstream process (feeding system) supplies the correct parts matching the new tooling of the PARU Mini. Otherwise it may be damaged by handling of the wrong parts. 4.3. Maintenance items and intervals PARU Mini is designed for continuous automatic operation. Information on wear cannot be provided as such wear varies depending on the system (PARU Mini - tooling - parts handled) on hand.

    Danger! Before connecting or disconnecting cables, verify absence of voltage. Non-observance may lead to electric shock or machine malfunctions. • Use only original fuses with the specified amperage! In the event of faults in power supply switch off the machine at once! •...
  • Page 16 ‘We have noticed a defect on the PARU Mini and need spare parts. How do we get them?’ In principle, each component of the PARU Mini can be ordered individually, except for the spring legs which are available only as pre-assembled units. Please contact Rhein-Nadel Automation GmbH (www.rna.de) for your spare part requirements.
