WARNING • As the equipment is heavy, make sure of its weight and gravity center position and disconnect the cables when carrying the equipment. Also, DO NOT carry the equipment with the slider. Otherwise, the slider will move and you will get injured.
Page 7
CAUTION • DO NOT place the equipment at a place where the ambient temperature exceeds 40°C, or where the temperature changes sharply, causing condensing, or where it is exposed to direct sunlight. Additionally, if the equipment is installed at a narrow place, the ambient temperature rises due to heat generation in the controller itself or external device, which will result in malfunction or mis-operation of the equipment.
■1.2 For your safe operation When you use the COMPO ARM BA-III series, be sure to take the measures in conformity to the following instruction: This machine is an industrial robot in conformance to the provisions of Paragraph 31of Article 36 of the Ordinance on Industrial Safety and Hygiene.

Chapter 4 Installing Actuator (Axis) This chapter describes the basic installation procedures for the axis and peripheral equipment. Installation shall comply with the instructions of this Chapter. If the installation procedure is incorrect, robot performance cannot be achieved. Not only that, the service life may be seriously reduced. CAUTION Precautions for installation ...
■4.1 Installing Actuator (Axis) Installation shall comply with the following procedures: (1) Setting the oval bolt From the axis end face, insert the oval bolt in the T-slots of the frame installation surface. (2) Mounting on the installation base Drill installation holes on the installation base of the carriage at a pitch of approximately 150 mm, and mount the product with oval bolts.
■4.2 Robot type for each Axis The robot type is indicated by the 6-digit numerals specified for each robot type. If this setting is made, various parameter values suited to the axis to be used can be automatically set. The input procedure is given in Section 4.2 of the CA25 Instruction Manual (Basic Part).
■4.3 Parameter values The parameters of this product are available in two types -- parameter 1 and parameter 2 -- depending on the frequency of use. The relationship between each parameter and the robot type is illustrated below: Setting the robot type allows the parameters on the circled portion on the left to be automatically changed. ■4.3.1 Values of parameter 1 for each robot type This parameter has a higher frequency of use.

(Note) The Sequence of Return to Origin according to the combination format, installation conditions and others. The customer is requested to set it in conformity to your operation conditions. The initial value is common at "1" for all robot types. Thus, if there is no change, simultaneous origin return of all axes can be achieved.
Chapter 5 Precautions for Use ■5.1 Servo gain setting In the actuator, in order to facilitate the parameter setting work of the controller, the initial parameters for operating the component arm are automatically set by setting the "robot type" (6 digit number) determined for each model to the controller.
Page 25
(2) Speed gain (V) ● When the value is reduced ・ If it is made too small, an error such as "overflow error" may occur during operation (especially when accelerating) and operation may not be possible. ・ The positioning and holding force of the slider is reduced. (Rigidity decreases) ●...
Page 26
■5.1.2 About adjustment of servo gain When adjusting the servo gain, refer to the contents described in ■ 5.1.1 "Servo gain setting value and operating condition" and set according to the following description. (1) Speed gain setting The initial value of speed gain usually does not need to be changed. If it is changed, please set as follows.
Page 27
● Abnormalities such as vibration and abnormal noise may occur due to resonance, so check the operation from the low speed range used for return to origin operation and "JOG" operation to the high speed range used for continuous operation. ●...
