  • Page 10: General Description And Technical Information

    4 GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND TECHNICAL INFORMATION The equipment consists of a pendular parallelogram balanced by a gas spring, and a telescopic arm. The assembly of both secures the clamping head and keeps it in a perpendicular position to the work area. In addition, it is possible to incorporate locks (manual or pneumatic) that lock the rotation on the shaft of the base and cross, the tilting motion of the arm and the extension of the arm.

  • Page 18: Installation

    5 INSTALLATION INSTALLATION ✓ The work bench or installation location must be a horizontal surface, thus avoiding shifts and deviations. ✓ When using the 3arm® fastening flange the maximum weight is 10 kg. ✓ CAUTION! Do not remove the washer before you have finished installing the tool. Otherwise the arm could start a sharp upward movement that could cause harm.
  • Page 19 5. Air connection (for versions with pneumatic locks L22 or L92 only). Requires suitable piping tube for use with compressed air. (Ø = 6 mm and maximum exterior supply pressure 0.8 MPa/ 8 bar). 6. Wiring connection (for versions L92 only). To connect your 3arm® arm to the controller of your tool [See ELECTROPNEUMATIC SYSTEM p.
  • Page 20: Installing And Changing Tools

    5.1 INSTALLING AND CHANGING TOOLS Before any type of adjustment or maintenance task, the staff and/or operators responsible for these tasks must bear in mind that the 3arm© arm is configured to work with a certain range of loads. SUDDEN SHARP UPWARD MOVEMENT If for any manipulation, adjustment or maintenance task, or for any other reason, the load is released from the arm (for example, when changing the tool), the arm may suddenly ascend sharply and could cause harm.
  • Page 21: Adjustments

    6 ADJUSTMENTS 6.1 BALANCING THE ARM Regulate the tension of internal shock absorber if the arm drops or has a lot of upward force. 1- Maintain the tilting arm in an approximately horizontal position to facilitate the task. 2- Using the flywheel installed for this purpose, in the upper part of the cross, rotate it as necessary.
  • Page 22: Balanced, Centred Position

    6.2 BALANCED, CENTRED POSITION -Balanced arm position: It tends to stay in the position in which it was left free. -Centred arm position: It tends to remain horizontal once left free. It is possible to adjust the arm to achieve balanced or centred adjustment. A - BALANCED (see image below) 1- Turn the Allen screw (4 mm Allen key) until the flat part of the screw head is in contact with the eccentric.
  • Page 23: Regulation Of The Resistance To Rotation

    6.3 REGULATION OF THE RESISTANCE TO ROTATION. The studs in the Base arm and arm - cross enable you to adjust the rotational resistance of the different axes of movement of the arm. The studs can be tightened or loosened with a Nylon tip to regulate this turning resistance (4 and 5 mm Allen keys).
  • Page 24: How To Secure Tools With A Square Section

    6.4 HOW TO SECURE TOOLS WITH A SQUARE SECTION To secure the tool correctly, Tecnospiro recommends using ball-tip headless Allen studs for thrust pads. This component allows you to adjust the tool from all sides, adapting the pads to the surface of the tool.

  • Page 29 Depending on the Vertical (V) or Horizontal (H) work that is going to be carried out, you must position the switch as shown in the image. If working in A (angle), the switches must be positioned at V (vertical) if a more vertical than horizontal position prevails, or otherwise H (horizontal).
  • Page 30 7.2.2 The use of telescopic compensators allows screw-mounting or tightening in any position (V- Vertical, H-Horizontal, A-Angle) with the arm completely blocked. For the use of compensators in your 3arm arm, follow these instructions. 1. Remove the guards and verify that the switches are in the locked position. Put them back immediately.
