3-3. Gripping force Holding conditions. ⚫ To lift workpieces vertically, be sure to take into consideration the acceleration rate, air pressure, impact etc., in addition to the mass of the workpieces. Lifting direction ⚫ Consider the center of gravity of the workpiece to avoid moments being applied the magnet gripper as much as possible.
Page 12
⚫Thin workpieces may be deformed during transportation. It is recommended to use multiple magnet grippers for scenarios such as this. Calculate the required holding force. Workpiece thickness t [mm] The holding force graph shows the theoretical value for low carbon steel plate. Holding forces very depending on the material and shape of the workpiece.

4. I/O Settings Tab * To change the setting, set the security access level to the administration level. (1) I/O settings for gripper operation At the time of installation of the YASKAWA Plug & Play Kit, the I/O assignment is already set. If wiring is made as per the manual, it can be used with the default setting.
5. Manual Operation tab (1) Manual operation The manual operation of the magnet gripper can be checked. By tapping the HOLD or RELEASE button, it is possible to perform a holding or releasing action of the gripper. (2) Monitor sensor signal It is possible to confirm whether the Hold position or Release position auto switch reacts.
4. Ensure that the fluid and ambient temperatures are within the specified range. If the fluid temperature is 5°C or less, the moisture in the circuit could freeze, causing damage to the seals or equipment malfunction. Therefore, take appropriate measures to prevent freezing. For compressed air quality, refer to the SMC Best Pneumatics No.
person. 3. Drain flushing Remove drainage from air filters regularly. 4. Removal of equipment, and supply/exhaust of compressed air Before components are removed, first confirm that measures are in place to prevent workpieces from dropping, run-away equipment, etc. Then, cut off the supply pressure and electric power, and exhaust all compressed air from the system using the residual pressure release function.
