2 HOW TO ASSEMBLE UNPACKAGING AND INSTALL INTRODUCTION Thank you for choosing our unit. Pick & Place This product is a composite unit that uses two cams for the horizontal and vertical directions to output horizontal and vertical motions. This manual shows precautions and service/inspection items below. Please carefuly read this manual before use or maintenance.

2 HOW TO ASSEMBLE AND INSTALL 6) The driveline from the motor to the index unit input shaft should be rigid and nobacklash. A backlash may cause a shock during the dial plate rotation, shorten the service life of the unit, and/or damage parts. (1) Do not use another input shaft in series between the motor and the Pick and Place Unit input shaft.
3 2 HOW TO ASSEMBLE BEFORE AND INSTALL OPERATION (3) Correctly install a tension adjuster for the timing belt or chain if used. The lack of the tension adjuster may lead to shock or vibration. Chain Tension lever An example of tension lever 7)...

4 ADEQUATE OPERATION Adequate operation Use the product within the range of specifications. A load and/or WARNING: ! r.p.m. exceeding the specifications may result in a damage, a malfunction and/or accuracy deterioration of the Pick and Place unit. (1) Keep the load mass (carrying mass) below the dynamic rated carrying mass. Don't touch any moving part during the operation of the Pick and ...

4 ADEQUATE OPERATION Don't suddenly stop the input shaft revolution during the output section is working. ① A sudden stop of the input shaft by clutch brake etc. will apply the overload to the unit. This may cause an overrun of the dial plate on the unit. ! WARNING: ② If a torque saver is provided, a sudden stop will release the torque saver. This may cause an overrun of the dial plate on the unit. ③ If the emergency stop is necessary, install the safety measure to prevent a sudden stop, and select the larger torque saver enduring the overload. (4) After emergency stop, manually rotate the shaft to the dwell section and start again. A handle should be provided with the driving system to permit the manual rotation of the input shaft in such a case.
