TUBING BUNDLE INSTALLATION
Typically, the tubing bundle is pulled through
the robot arm from the robot wrist side. Keep
the bundle taped except for the bundle that will
be inside the arm. Pull the tubing through the
wrist and arm, leaving about 250mm (10-inch)
of tubing sticking out the front of the wrist plate.
(See “Tubing Bundle Installation” figure in the
“Installation” section.)
Fasten the cable bundle at the exit of the arm. Push
the robot spacer plate and applicator mounting
plate to the robot wrist plate aligning the top dead
center marks of the spacer plate and robot wrist
plate. Fasten using appropriate screws. Install
the tubing bundle in this fashion will increase
tubing bundle life significantly.
BUNDLE LUBRICANT
When the tubing bundle is installed, it should be
lubricated with a generous amount of lubricant to
increase the service life of the tubes. A recom-
mended lubricant is Shell Alvania EP #02. There
are other lubricants that are available for use.
Prior to using a lubricant, ensure it is silicone free,
resists heat breakdown, and is compatible with the
materials it will contact. It is recommended that
tubing bundles be re-greased every six months.
