2.1 Transport and Storage

This equipment must be shipped and stored in a temperature-controlled environment, within the range -25 to +55 C. The recommended humidity range is 5 to 90 percent, non-condensing.

It should be shipped and stored in the Adept-supplied packaging, which is designed to prevent damage from normal shock and vibration. You should protect the package from excessive shock and vibration.

Use a forklift, pallet jack, or similar device to transport and store the packaged equipment (see the following figure).

The robot must always be stored and shipped in an upright position in a clean, dry area that is free from condensation. Do not lay the crate on its side or any other position: this could damage the robot.

The robot weighs 51 kg (112 lb) with no options installed.

Chapter 2: Robot Installation

2.2 Unpacking and Inspecting the Adept Equipment

Before Unpacking

Carefully inspect all shipping crates for evidence of damage during transit. If any damage is indicated, request that the carrier’s agent be present at the time the container is unpacked.

Upon Unpacking

Before signing the carrier’s delivery sheet, please compare the actual items received (not just the packing slip) with your equipment purchase order and verify that all items are present and that the shipment is correct and free of visible damage.

If the items received do not match the packing slip, or are damaged, do not sign the receipt.

Contact Adept as soon as possible.

If the items received do not match your order, please contact Adept immediately.

Inspect each item for external damage as it is removed from its container. If any damage is

evident, contact Adept (see How Can I Get Help? on page 17).

Retain all containers and packaging materials. These items may be necessary to settle claims or, at a later date, to relocate equipment.

2.3 Repacking for Relocation

If the robot or other equipment needs to be relocated, reverse the steps in the installation procedures that appear in this chapter. Reuse all original packing containers and materials and follow all safety notes used for installation. Improper packaging for shipment will void your warranty. Specify this to the carrier if the robot is to be shipped.

CAUTION: Before unbolting the robot from the mounting surface, fold the outer arm against the Joint 2 hardstops to help centralize the center of gravity. The robot must always be shipped in an upright orientation, as shown in

Figure 2-1.

Chapter 3: System Installation

Facility Overvoltage Protection

The user must protect the robot from excessive overvoltages and voltage spikes. If the country of installation requires a CE-certified installation, or compliance with

IEC

 1131-2, the following information may be helpful:

IEC

1131-2 requires that the installation must ensure that

Category II overvoltages (i.e., line spikes not directly due to lightning strikes) are not exceeded.

Transient overvoltages at the point of connection to the power source shall be controlled not to exceed overvoltage Category II, i.e., not higher than the impulse voltage corresponding to the rated voltage for the basic insulation. The user-supplied equipment or transient suppressor shall be capable of absorbing the energy in the transient.

In the industrial environment, nonperiodic overvoltage peaks may appear on mains power supply lines as a result of power interruptions to high-energy equipment (such as a blown fuse on one branch in a 3-phase system). This will cause high current pulses at relatively low voltage levels. The user shall take the necessary steps to prevent damage to the robot system

(such as by interposing a transformer). See

IEC

1131-4 for additional information.

3.9 Grounding the Adept Robot System

Proper grounding is essential for safe and reliable robot operation. Follow these recommendations to properly ground your robot system.

Ground the Robot Base

The user can install a ground wire at the robot base to ground the robot. See Figure 3-6 for the

ground point. The robot ships with an M8 x 12 stainless steel, hex-head screw, and M8 split and flat washers installed in the grounding hole. The user is responsible for supplying the ground wire to connect to earth ground.

Adept Cobra s800 Inverted Robot User's Guide, Rev H1

Page 37 of 142

Chapter 3: System Installation

Figure 3-6. Ground Point on Robot Base (standard robot shown)

See Installing 24 VDC Robot Cable on page 32 for additional system grounding information.

Grounding Robot-Mounted Equipment

The following parts of an Adept Cobra s800 Inverted robot are not grounded to protective earth: the Joint 3 quill and the tool flange. If hazardous voltages are present at any usersupplied robot-mounted equipment or tooling, you must install a ground connection from that equipment/tooling to the ground point on the robot base. Hazardous voltages can be considered anything in excess of 30

VAC

(42.4

VAC peak) or 60 

VDC

.

Also, see Tool Flange Dimensions on page 108 for the grounding point on the tool flange.

DANGER: Failing to ground robot-mounted equipment or tooling that uses hazardous voltages could lead to injury or death of a person touching the end-effector when an electrical fault condition exists.

3.10 Installing User-Supplied Safety Equipment

The user is responsible for installing safety barriers to protect personnel from coming in contact with the robot unintentionally. Depending on the design of the workcell, safety gates, light curtains, and emergency stop devices can be used to create a safe environment. Read the

Adept Robot Safety Guide

for a discussion of safety issues.

Refer to the

Adept SmartController User's Guide

for information on connecting safety equipment into the system through the XUSR connector on the SmartController. There is a detailed section on Emergency Stop Circuits and diagrams on recommended E-Stop configurations.

4.3 Brakes

The robot has a braking system that decelerates the robot in an emergency condition, such as when the emergency stop circuit is open or a robot joint passes its softstop.

The E-Stop is a dual-channel, passive E-Stop that supports Category 3 CE safety requirements.

It supports a customer-programmable E-Stop delay that maintains motor power for a programmed time after the E-Stop is activated. This customizable feature allows the motors to decelerate under servo control to a stop. This can aid in eliminating coasting or overshooting on low friction mechanisms. It can also aid in the reduction of wear on highly-geared, highinertia mechanisms, while maintaining safety compliance per all standards.

The Programmable E-Stop delay can be set up in Adept ACE, in the robot editor. The default setting is correct for most applications. For details, see the next section.

The braking system will not prevent you from moving the robot manually once the robot has stopped (and high power has been removed).

In addition, Joint 3 has an electromechanical brake. The brake is released when high power is enabled. When high power is turned off, the brake engages and holds the position of Joint 3.

Programmable E-Stop Delay

To set the programmable E-Stop delay from the ACE software, go to the object editor for the robot, and enable Expert Access:

Object > Expert Access

NOTE: This requires a password to enable.

Once enabled, you will be able to see and modify the following three parameters (among others): l

Auto Mode E-Stop Shutdown Timeout l

Hold-to-Run E-Stop Shutdown Timeout l

Manual Mode E-Stop Shutdown Timeout

Adept Cobra s800 Inverted Robot User's Guide, Rev H1

Page 41 of 142

Chapter 4: System Operation

Each of these is the time, in seconds, after that mode E-Stop is asserted, in which V+/eV+ is allowed to decelerate the robot, engage the brakes, and shut down power before the servo nodes automatically shut down power. The value can be set from 0 (immediate power-off) to

0.512 seconds. If the deceleration is too slow, or the brake-on delay too long, the servo will automatically cut power.

Brake Release Button

Under some circumstances you may want to manually position Joint 3 on the Z-Axis without turning on high power. For such instances, a 'Z' Brake Release button is located on the robot

status panel (see Figure 4-2). When system power is on, pressing this button releases the brake,

which allows movement of Joint 3.

NOTE: 24 Volt robot power must be ON to release the brakes.

If this button is pressed while high power is on, high power will automatically shut off.

WARNING: When the Brake Release button is pressed,

Joint 3 may drop to the bottom of its travel. To prevent possible damage to the equipment, make sure that Joint 3 is supported while releasing the brake and verify that the end-effector or other installed tooling is clear of all obstructions.

Chapter 4: System Operation

3. Manual/Automatic Mode Switch

Switches between Manual and Automatic mode. In Automatic mode, executing programs control the robot, and the robot can run at full speed. In Manual mode, the system limits robot speed and torque so that an operator can safely work in the cell.

Manual mode initiates software restrictions on robot speed, commanding no more than

250 mm/sec.

4. High Power On/Off Switch and Lamp

Controls high power, which is the flow of current to the robot motors. Enabling high power is a two-step process. An “Enable Power” request must be sent from the usersupplied PC, an executing program, or the pendant. Once this request has been made and the High Power On/Off lamp/button is blinking, the operator must press and release this button, and high power will be enabled.

NOTE: The use of the blinking High Power button can be configured (or eliminated) in software. Your system may not require this step.

NOTE: If enabled, the Front Panel button must be pressed while blinking (default time-out is 10 seconds). If the button stops blinking, you must enable power again.

5. Emergency Stop Switch

The E-Stop is a dual-channel, passive E-Stop that supports Category 3 CE safety requirements. Pressing this button turns off high power to the robot motors.

NOTE: The Front Panel must be installed to be able to Enable Power to the robot. To operate without a Front Panel, you must supply the equivalent circuits.

NOTE: The OFF state current range exceeds the leakage current of XIO outputs. This guarantees that the inputs will not be turned on by the leakage current from the outputs. This is useful in situations where the outputs are looped-back to the inputs for monitoring purposes.

XIO Output Signals

The eight digital outputs share a common, high side (sourcing) driver IC. The driver is designed to supply any kind of load with one side connected to ground. It is designed for a range of user-provided voltages, from 10 to 24 VDC, and each channel is capable of up to

Adept Cobra s800 Inverted Robot User's Guide, Rev H1

Page 48 of 142

Chapter 4: System Operation

0.7 A of current. This driver has overtemperature protection, shorted-load protection, and is current limiting. In the event of an output short or other overcurrent situation, the affected output of the driver IC turns off and back on automatically to reduce the temperature of the IC.

The driver draws power from the primary 24 VDC input to the robot through a self-resetting polyfuse.

The outputs are accessed through direct connection to the XIO connector (see Table 4-5), or

through the optional XIO Termination Block. See the documentation supplied with the

Termination Block for details.

5.8 Commissioning a System with an eAIB

Commissioning a system involves synchronizing the robot with the eAIB.

NOTE: This section only applies to robots that have an eAIB amplifier. A robot with an AIB amplifier does not need the Adept ACE commissioning.

For a new system with an eAIB, the robot and the eAIB will have been commissioned at the factory and should not need commissioning.

If you are replacing an AIB with an eAIB, you will need to commission the system.

In rare cases with a new robot with an eAIB, you may need to commission the system.

l

If the system will not power up, and the robot status display shows SE, you need to commission the system.

l

If the system will not power up in Manual mode, and the robot status display shows

TR, you need to commission the system.

Safety Commissioning Utilities

The Adept eAIB adds two functions that implement safety in hardware: l

E-Stop

This serves as a backup to the standard software E-Stop process. The system will always try to stop the robot using the software E-Stop first. The hardware E-Stop will take over in the event of a failure of the software E-Stop.

l

Teach Restrict

Adept Cobra s800 Inverted Robot User's Guide, Rev H1

Page 65 of 142

Chapter 5: Maintenance

This limits the maximum speed of the robot when it is operated in Manual mode. As with the E-Stop, this is a hardware backup to software limits on robot speed. If the software fails to limit the robot speed during manual operation, the hardware Teach

Restrict will disable power to the system.

These two functions are only in the eAIB amplifiers. They were not implemented in hardware in the AIB amplifiers, so these utilities do not apply to those amplifiers.

These two functions are supported by four wizards: l

E-Stop Configuration

This sets the E-Stop hardware delay to factory specifications.

l

E-Stop Verification

This verifies that the hardware E-Stop is functioning correctly.

l

Teach Restrict Configuration

This sets the hardware Teach Restrict maximum speed to factory specifications.

l

Teach Restrict Verification

This verifies that the hardware Teach Restrict is functioning correctly.

The initial utility screen will tell you which functions are commissioned. If a function is not commissioned, its verification wizard will not be displayed. Any displayed verification wizard can be run at any time, to ensure that its function is working properly.

Prerequisites

CAUTION: Replace the battery pack only with a 3.6 V,

6.8 Ah lithium battery pack, Adept P/N 09977-000.

Battery information is located in the base of the robot.

Adept Cobra s800 Inverted Robot User's Guide, Rev H1

Page 70 of 142

Chapter 5: Maintenance

NOTE: The previous battery, P/N 02704-000, has been superseded by this battery pack. The battery replacement interval and procedure have not changed.

If you need to disconnect the inner link from the robot base (for service, for example), you can preserve the Joint 2 motor encoder information by installing a backup battery in the inner link

(see Installing an Encoder Battery in the Inner Link on page 73).

Battery Replacement Time Periods

If the robot is kept in storage and not in production, or the robot is turned off (no 24 VDC supply) most of the time, then the battery should be replaced every 5 years.

If the robot is turned on with 24 VDC supplied to the robot more than half the time, then you can increase the replacement interval to a maximum of 10 years.

NOTE: Dispose of the battery according to all local and national environmental regulations regarding electronic components.

Battery Replacement Procedure

1. Obtain the replacement battery pack.

2. Switch off the SmartController.

3. Switch off the 24 VDC input supply to the robot.

4. Switch off the 200/240 VAC input supply to the robot.

5. Disconnect the 24 VDC supply cable from the robot +24 VDC input connector—see

Figure 2-5 for locations of the connectors.

6. Disconnect the 200/240 VAC supply cable from the robot AC input connector.

7. Using a 5 mm hex key, carefully unscrew the AIB or eAIB chassis securing screw—see

Figure 5-2. Note that the screw does not need to be completely removed in order to

remove the chassis, as this screw is captured on the chassis heat sink.

8. While holding the chassis heat sink, carefully hang the chassis on the support bolt on

the side of the robot chassis (see Figure 5-4 and Figure 5-5), so there is access to the

battery. See the following figure for the location of the battery pack.

Chapter 5: Maintenance

Installing an Encoder Battery in the Inner Link

If you need to separate the inner and outer link assemblies from the robot base assembly (for service, for example), you need to install a backup battery in the inner link to preserve the Joint

2 motor encoder information.

NOTE: Before you disconnect the Joint 2 motor cable from the AIB/eAIB chassis, you need to perform the procedure below. If you do not, the Joint 2 motor encoder information will be lost and you will need to re-initialize the robot after you reconnect the Joint 2 motor cable to the AIB chassis.

1. Obtain the replacement battery pack, p/n 09977-000.

2. Turn off all power to the robot.

3. Remove 10 screws on the bottom of the inner link cover and remove the inner link cover.

4. Locate the battery cable in the wire bundle in the inner link.

Figure 5-13. Location of Encoder Battery Cable in Inner Link

5. Connect the battery pack to the connectors on the battery cable. Make sure that the positive and negative connections are correct.

NOTE: After the inner link assembly has been reassembled with the robot base assembly and the wire harness has been securely connected to the AIB/eAIB chassis, you can remove the encoder battery in the inner link.

Chapter 6: Optional Equipment Installation

6.1 Installing End-Effectors

The user is responsible for providing and installing any end-effector or other end-of-arm

tooling. End-effectors can be attached to the tool flange using four M6 screws. See Figure 7-4

for a dimension drawing of the tool flange.

A 6 mm diameter x 12 mm dowel pin (user-supplied) fits in the through-hole in the tool flange and can be used as a keying or anti-rotation device in a user-designed end-effector.

If hazardous voltages are present at the end-effector, you must install a ground connection

from the base of the robot or the outer link to the end-effector. For details, see Grounding Robot-

Mounted Equipment on page 38.

NOTE: A threaded hole is provided on the tool flange (see Figure 7-4). The user

may attach a ground wire through the quill connecting the outer link and the tool flange.

6.2 Removing and Installing the Tool Flange

The tool flange can be removed and reinstalled. If the flange is removed, it must be reinstalled in exactly the same position to avoid losing the calibration for the system.

There is a setscrew on the flange that holds the rotational position of the flange on the quill shaft. A ball bearing behind the setscrew contacts the shaft in one of the vertical-spline grooves in the shaft. Follow the procedures that follow to remove and reinstall the flange assembly.

Removing the Flange

1. Turn off high power and system power to the robot.

2. Remove any attached end-effectors or other tooling from the flange.

3. Use a 2.5 mm hex driver to loosen the setscrew (see Figure 6-1).

4. Note the vertical-spline groove that is in line with the setscrew. You must replace the flange in the same position.

5. Use a socket driver to loosen the two M4 socket-head screws.

6. Slide the flange down slowly until it is off the shaft. Be careful not to lose the ball bearing (3.5 mm) that is inside the flange behind the setscrew.

Installing the Flange

1. Make sure the ball bearing is in the setscrew hole inside the flange. Hold it in place with your finger as you get ready to install the flange.

2. Slide the flange up on the quill shaft as far as it will go, and rotate until the setscrew is lined up with the original vertical groove.

3. Support the flange while using a 2.5 mm hex driver to tighten the setscrew to finger tight. Do not over-tighten the setscrew because this will cause the flange to be off-center from the quill shaft.

4. Use a socket driver to tighten one of the socket-head screws part of the way, then tighten the other one the same amount. Alternate between the two screws so there is even pressure on both once they are tight. The torque specification for each screw is 8 N-m

(71 in-lbf).

6.3 User Connections on Robot

User Air Lines

There are five user air line connectors on the robot user panel on the back of Joint 1—see

Figure 6-3. The five air lines run through the robot up to another set of five matching

connectors on the top of the outer link—see Figure 6-5.

NOTE: On the IP-65 version robot, the connectors are under the outer link cover—

see Figure 9-10.

The Break-away E-Stop function is provided to enable a high power shutdown from the outer link area. For example, it would be used if you want a break-away gripper to shut down robot high power. It lets you disable high power through a user relay circuit inside the robot.

The 2-pin ESTOP connector provides a pair of contacts that can be used for a Break-away E-

Stop function at the end of the arm. See the following table. The function is disabled by default when the system is shipped. The user must enable this function using the Adept ACE software

(see below), and connect a normally-closed circuit to Pins 1 and 2. When the circuit is opened, the system will stop in an E-Stop condition. See the following table and figure.

6.6 Installing Robot Solenoid Kit

Introduction

This procedure describes how to mount the 24 V solenoid option kit on an Adept Cobra s800

Inverted robot. The solenoid kit is available as Adept p/n 02853-000.

The robot has been pre-wired to accommodate a bank of two 24 VDC solenoid valves. Power for the internal mounting is accessible via a connector mounted inside the outer link cover (see

Figure 6-11). The signals actuating the valves are directly switchable from the Adept ACE

software using software signals 3001 and 3002.

1. Open the gripper object editor.

2. Select the Open/Close tab.

3. Set the signal values for Open, Close, and Release.

Figure 6-10. Setting Solenoid Signal Values

The Adept-supplied solenoids each draw a nominal 75 mA at 24 VDC.

Adept Cobra s800 Inverted Robot User's Guide, Rev H1

Page 85 of 142

Chapter 6: Optional Equipment Installation

The solenoid valve assembly consists of two independent valves (Valve #1 and Valve #2) on a common manifold. The manifold supplies air at the user’s line pressure (28 psi minimum

(0.19 MPa) to 114 psi (0.786 MPa) maximum). Each valve has two output ports, A and B. The output ports are arranged so that when Port A is pressurized, Port B is not pressurized.

Conversely, when Port B is pressurized, Port A is not. In the Adept Cobra s-series robots, the air lines from Port A on each valve are plugged at the factory (at the solenoid assembly).

The Solenoid Kit for the Adept Cobra s-series robot is available through Adept. Contact your

Adept Sales Representative for current price and availability.

6.8 DeviceNet Communication Link

DeviceNet is a communications link that connects industrial I/O devices to a messagepacketing network. All nodes connect to the same backbone cable, eliminating the need for individual wiring for each I/O point.

Adept incorporates the following DeviceNet-ready hardware in the Adept Cobra s-series robot: l

Male micro-style 12 mm thread DIN connector at the robot base (see Figure 6-2).

l

Female micro-style 12 mm thread DIN connector for joint 2 of the robot (see Figure 6-5

and Figure 6-15).

l

A non-standard DeviceNet cable, consisting of two shielded twisted pairs that connect the base and joint 2 connectors. Adept considers this cabling to be a drop line with a maximum total length of 6 meters (20 feet) and therefore uses the following wire sizes:

This means that total current on the power pairs must be limited to 2 A instead

Adept Cobra s800 Inverted Robot User's Guide, Rev H1

Page 91 of 142

Chapter 6: Optional Equipment Installation

of the standard 3 A in a DeviceNet trunk line. Because this is intended to be a

DeviceNet “drop line” with a maximum of 6 meters (16.5 feet), the full data rate should be achievable. However, Adept has tested the internal cable only at 125k baud.

See the

Adept SmartController User's Guide

for physical installation.

Use Adept ACE, controller configuration, for software setup. This assigns the controller signals to the physical ports of the DeviceNet nodes. For details, see the topic on V+/eV+ System

Configuration in the

Adept ACE User's Guide

.

NOTE: The local setting baud rate must match the DeviceNet node’s setting.

From the Adept ACE software:

1. Double-click on the controller in the tree structure pane.

This opens the object editor for the controller.

2. Select Configure > Configure V+ (or eV+).

3. Select DEVICENET.

4. If there is no LOCAL statement, you are prompted to add one before scanning.

The LOCAL statement in the DeviceNet configuration specifies the MAC ID of the

Adept controller on the DeviceNet bus. The default setting is 0. Set the MAC ID so that all the nodes on the bus have different MAC IDs.

LOCAL = "/MACID n /BAUD n".

This statement also defines the baud rate of the DeviceNet scanner. The baud rate depends on multiple factors, such as the length of the DeviceNet cable, the DeviceNet components on the bus, etc.

Syntax of the LOCAL statement:

LOCAL = "/MACID local_id

/BAUD baud_rate"

Parameter Description Range

local_id MACID for the Adept controller on the bus 0 - 63 baud_rate Baud rate to be used on the DeviceNet 125K, 250K, or 500K

5. Click Scan.

This scans for your physical DeviceNet nodes, and return the MACIDs for them.

6. Use Add or Edit to set the values for DeviceNet.

7. The fields that need to be entered are: l

Index - a unique number for this mapping l

Byte - usually starts at 1

Adept Cobra s800 Inverted Robot User's Guide, Rev H1

Page 92 of 142

Chapter 6: Optional Equipment Installation

l

This is the input or output block where mapping starts.

A byte refers to 8 inputs or outputs, so if you are using two 8-channel input blocks, byte 1 would be the first input block, and byte 2 the second.

l

Bit - usually starts at 1 l

This is the bit within the byte where mapping starts.

To map the first input of an 8-channel input block, this would be 1.

l

Signal - the input or output signal number (e.g. 1013 or 013) where mapping starts.

l

Bit_length - the number of input or output signals to map.

l

MACID - the MACID returned by the Scan.

8. When you are finished, click Done.

9. Check that the assignments worked correctly by opening the Digital I/O tab.

The new signals should show up as being mapped now.

Recommended Vendors for Mating Cables and Connectors

A variety of vendors have molded cable assemblies for the “Micro-style” connector including

Brad Harrison, Crouse Hinds, Lumberg, Turk, and others. In addition, Hirshmann, Phoenix

Contact, and Beckhoff have mating micro connectors that have screw terminals in the plug to allow the user to make custom cables.

Joint 2 Adjustable Hardstops

The Joint 2 Adjustable Hardstop (see the following figure) consists of two curved plates that are the adjustable hardstops, a small, black rectangular block that is the fixed hardstop, and the screws required to install them. The adjustable hardstop plates can be installed in different locations, depending on how much you need to limit the Joint 2 range of motion.

Figure 6-20. Joint 2 Hardstops

NOTE: The Joint 2 Adjustable Hardstop requires extra steps to be installed on the

IP-65 version of the Cobra s800 Inverted.

IP-65 Installation: The adjustable hardstop plates cover 8 of the 12 holes in the inner link at

Joint 2. The other 4 holes must be covered with pieces from one of the IP-65 arcs. To accomplish this, you will cut one of the IP-65 arcs to fill in the gaps between the two adjustable hardstop plates. The IP-65 arcs are scribed to indicate where they may be cut—see the following figure. You will need to cut either one or two arc segments that cover a total of four holes. The remainder of the IP-65 arcs will not be needed.

Adept Cobra s800 Inverted Robot User's Guide, Rev H1

Installation Procedure

1. Remove the bottom cover from the underside of the inner link.

2. For the IP-65 version, from the underside of the inner link, looking up, remove the 12

M5 x 10 screws and lock washers that hold the IP-65 arcs onto the IP-65 gaskets. Both

arcs, lock washers, and gaskets are half-circles, as shown in Figure 6-21.

l

Save the screws and IP-65 arcs for use later in this procedure.

l

Leave the two gaskets in place at Joint 2 on the inner link.

3. Slide the two adjustable hardstop plates around Joint 2, into the space between the inner

and outer links—see Figure 6-22.

For the IP-65 version, slide the adjustable hardstop plates over the existing gaskets, taking care not to damage the gaskets.

4. Looking up at the inner link from underneath, align the holes in the plates with the

holes in the inner link—see Figure 6-23.

NOTE: The two sides do not have to have the hardstop in the same position, so the workspace does not have to be symmetrical.

Chapter 6: Optional Equipment Installation

6. Repeat the process for the second plate. Note that the plates can be installed in multiple different positions, depending on how much you need to limit the range of Joint 2.

7. For IP-65 version installations: l

There will now be one or two gaps between the ends of the adjustable hardstop plates.

l

Cut one of the IP-65 arcs, shown in Figure 6-21, so that you have the correct

number and size arc segments to fill the gaps between the adjustable hardstop plates.

l

Install the segments you just cut into the gaps between the plates. Secure with

M5 x 10 screws with lock washers.

l

Tighten the screws to 4.5 N

· m (40 in-lb).

l

Note that there will be 8 M5 x 10 screws and lock washers (from the adjustable hardstop kit) left over after the IP-65 installation.

After this step, all 12 holes around Joint 2 should be surrounded by gasket, which is compressed by either an adjustable hardstop plate or an arc segment and an M5 x 10 screw.

8. Slide the fixed hardstop block into the slot on the underside of the outer link—see the following figure.

Figure 6-24. Fixed Hardstop Block for Joint 2

9. Use a 3 mm hex wrench to install two supplied M4 x 12 screws and lock washers to secure the hardstop block.

Chapter 8: Cleanroom Robots

8.1 Cobra s800 Inverted Cleanroom Option

Introduction

The Adept Cobra s800 Inverted robot is available in a Class 10 Cleanroom model.

This option is a factory-installed configuration (Adept part number 09854-000). Changes to the robot include the addition of a bellows assembly mounted at the Joint 3 quill, fully-sealed access covers, and a vacuum system to evacuate the volume within the robot.

Page 117 of 142

8.2 Connections

Chapter 8: Cleanroom Robots

Figure 8-2. Cleanroom Connections

The connection panel for Cleanroom robots is modified to accommodate the vacuum lines needed. Users will still have use of the two 6 mm and three 4 mm air lines, as well as the I/O connections and DeviceNet port.

The 3/4 in. vacuum fitting is a high-flow/low-vacuum port. The 3/8 in. vacuum fitting is used to evacuate the bellows area of the robot.

8.4 Exclusions and Incompatibilities

Table 8-2. Internally-Mounted Hand Valves

Installation considerations

Performance considerations

Recommendation

The internal air line normally used to supply the internally-mounted hand valves (Adept

Option Kit P/N 02853-000) is instead used to provide vacuum to the bellows/outer link. One of the external 6 mm user air lines would need to be used to supply the hand valves instead.

The air exhausting from the internally mounted hand valves may be of sufficient quantity/ quality to cause the robot to fail to meet Class 10 particulate limits.

For these reasons, Adept recommends mounting hand valves externally.

8.5 Maintenance

Bellows Replacement

Check the bellows, Adept p/n 04625-000, periodically for cracks, wear, or damage. Replace bellows, if necessary, using the following procedure:

Removing the Bellows

1. Loosen the lower bellows clamp by loosening the screw and pulling the clamp apart slightly. See the following figure.

Figure 8-3. Lower Bellows Clamp

2. Remove the tool flange. Refer to Removing and Installing the Tool Flange on page 75 for

the tool flange removal procedure.

Chapter 9: IP-65 Option

9.1 IEC IP-65 Classification

The factory-installed IP-65 version provides an improved level of dust and water protection.

IP-65 means “dust-tight and protection against low pressure water jetting.” l

Dust Resistance - protection of the equipment inside the robot shell against ingress of solid foreign objects l

Specifically for IP-65 Dust Protection - “No ingress of dust is allowed.” l

Water Resistance - protection of the equipment inside the robot shell against harmful effects due to the ingress of water l

Specifically for IP-65 Water Protection - “Water projected in jets against the robot enclosure from any direction shall have no harmful effects”

Figure 9-1. Adept Cobra s800 Robot - IP-65 Version

NOTE: If ordered, the IP-65 option comes from the factory pre-installed. These instructions cover disassembly and reassembly for maintenance or for access to the user connections, which are inside the outer link in the IP-65 version.

Adept Cobra s800 Inverted Robot User's Guide, Rev H1

Page 123 of 142

Chapter 9: IP-65 Option

9.2 Modifications to Meet IP-65 Classification

Outer link

The Cobra s800 Inverted robot has different seals for the IP-65 version. The outer link cover has been widened slightly to accommodate a larger seal.

The user connections are not available from the outside of the outer link on the IP-65 version.

Rather, the outer link cover must be removed to access these connections, and the connections

continue through the quill, rather than outside of the outer link. Refer to Removing/Installing

Outer Link Cover on page 128.

AIB/eAIB Cable Seal

The cables entering the AIB/eAIB have a special seal assembly to achieve IP-65 classification.

This is covered in Removing/Installing the Cable Entry Housing on page 124 and Installing the Roxtec Cable Seal Assembly on page 135.

Controller

This chapter applies to the Adept Cobra s800 Inverted robot, not to the Adept SmartController.

NOTE: The Adept SmartController must be installed inside a NEMA-1 rated enclosure.

Hard Stop, Rotation Range

Because the outer link cover has been widened, it cannot rotate as far as the standard inverted

Cobra. The hard stop has been enlarged to limit the outer link’s rotation (at J2), to prevent the outer link from hitting the robot body.

Refer to Table 7-4 for specifications for both Cobra versions.

9.3 AIB/eAIB Cable Seal Overview

There are two sealing assemblies for the AIB/eAIB cables.

One is a Roxtec Cable Seal Assembly. It consists of dense foam with adjustable-diameter holes for cables. The foam and cables are mounted in a housing that compresses the foam, thereby eliminating any gaps around the cables.

The other assembly is the cable entry housing, which provides access to the AIB/eAIB connections. Instructions for removal and reinstallation of the cable entry housing are provided in the next section. The Roxtec assembly is mounted through the cover of this assembly, and should never need to be disassembled.

In the event that a cable needs to be replaced, instructions are provided in Installing the Roxtec

Cable Seal Assembly on page 135 for removing and reinstalling the Roxtec assembly.

9.4 Removing/Installing the Cable Entry Housing

The Adept Cobra s800 Inverted robot IP-65 version has special sealing hardware at the

AIB/eAIB to ensure nothing can enter the inside of the robot or AIB/eAIB. If you need to remove

Adept Cobra s800 Inverted Robot User's Guide, Rev H1

Page 129 of 142

Chapter 9: IP-65 Option

Figure 9-6. IP-65 Robot with Outer Link Cover Removed

Installing Outer Link Cover

1. Check the cover O-ring around the inner groove of the cover to make sure it is in place and not crimped before installing the cover.

If the O-ring is worn or damaged, replace it.

The O-ring is Adept p/n 06356-000.

2. Hold the cover over the outer link and check to see that the clamp nuts attached to the 8 side screws are positioned so they will slip into place when the cover is lowered onto the outer link.

3. Slowly lower the cover onto the outer link, making sure the O-ring does not fall out or get pinched as the cover presses down to make the seal.

NOTE: As you lower the cover onto the outer link, make sure the 8 side screws are pushed all the way in, so the clamp nuts will slide into the correct position.

4. Install the two screws and nylon washers at the top of the outer link and tighten to 5 inlb (0.56 N

· m).

5. Install the two screws (check for O-ring on screw) near the front of the outer link and tighten to 10 in-lb (1.1 N

· m).

6. Tighten the 8 side screws to 10 in-lb (1.1 N

· m). Be careful to not over-tighten. Begin with the two screws (one on each side) at the back of the outer link, then move forward to the next two, and so on, until all eight are tightened. This pattern is recommended to achieve a secure fit around the cover.

7. Install the collar nut and tighten until secure.

8. Remember to turn on the compressed air supply to the system before restarting the robot.

Chapter 9: IP-65 Option

9.6 Customer Requirements

The IP-65 robot provides most of the hardware needed to achieve an IP-65 protection level, but customers must provide a way of sealing the tool flange and pressurizing the robot through the compressed air fitting (located just above the AIB/eAIB). These two requirements, sealing the tool flange and pressurizing the robot, are critical to achieving the IP-65 level of protection.

In addition, the robot must be inspected periodically to make sure these requirements are being met, as part of a periodic maintenance program.

Sealing the Tool Flange

The tool flange must be sealed so that the robot shell can be positively pressurized. The positive pressure reinforces the sealing properties of the gaskets and seals provided in the IP-

65 robot.

The tool flange for the IP-65 robot has an additional protective shield on the outer edge that is not present on the standard robot tool flange. The following figure shows the side-view dimensions. The bottom face of the flange (mounting surface) is the same as the standard

flange, see Figure 7-4.

Chapter 9: IP-65 Option

Pressurizing the Robot

The user must supply compressed air to maintain positive air pressure inside the robot.

1. Remove the shipping plug from the compressed air fitting located just above the

AIB/eAIB. See Figure 9-8.

Figure 9-8. Compressed Air Fitting on Robot

2. Connect a compressed air source to the air fitting. The specification for the regulated air supply is shown in the following table.

Table 9-1. Compressed Air Specifications

Required Air Pressure

3 bar, ± 10%

(44 PSI, ± 10%)

Required Air Flow, Minimum

57 liters per minute

(2 cubic feet per minute)

CAUTION: The compressed air supply must be clean and dry and it must be on continuously to maintain a positive air pressure inside the robot. Failure to do this could result in moisture or particle buildup inside the robot and lead to reduced performance or damage to the robot. This will also void your warranty.

Adept Cobra s800 Inverted Robot User's Guide, Rev H1

Page 132 of 142

Chapter 9: IP-65 Option

9.7 User Connectors

User Electrical and DeviceNet

On the back of the robot base, above the AIB/eAIB, the user electrical, IO Blox, and DeviceNet connectors are fitted with removable plugs at the factory—see the following figure. If you use any of these connectors, you must provide a seal (see following note) at the connection to prevent moisture from entering the robot.

NOTE: The user electrical connector (DB-25) and the IO Blox connector (DB-9) above the AIB/eAIB require a gel seal gasket to maintain an adequate seal. The gaskets are supplied in the Accessory Kit (p/n 04860-000).

Figure 9-9. User Connectors on Robot Base (capped/covered)

The user electrical and DeviceNet connectors on the outer link are accessible with the cover removed. The following figure shows the locations of the internal connectors. See

Removing/Installing Outer Link Cover on page 128 for instructions on removing and re-

installing the outer link cover.

User Air Lines

On the back of the robot base, the user air line connectors are fitted with removable plugs at

the factory—see Figure 9-9.

The user air line connectors on the outer link are accessible with the cover removed. See Figure

9-10 for locations of the internal connectors. See Removing/Installing Outer Link Cover on page 128 for instructions on removing and re-installing the outer link cover.

CAUTION: Failure to prevent water intrusion through improperly sealed external fittings will void your warranty.

Robot Solenoid Option

In an IP-65 robot, if you are installing the internally mounted solenoid valves (Adept Option

Kit p/n 02853-000), you must use a different air line than described in Installing Robot

Solenoid Kit on page 85.

The internal air line normally used to supply the solenoid manifold is instead used to provide positive airflow pressure to the bellows and outer link. You can use one of the passive 6 mm

user air lines shown in Figure 9-9 and Figure 9-10 for the solenoid connection.

9.8 Maintenance

Replacing IP-65 Bellows

Check the bellows, Adept p/n 04625-000, periodically for cracks, wear, or damage. Replace bellows, if necessary, using the following procedure:
