9. Maintenance/Inspection
[Medium Two-finger Type (RCP2-GRS/GRM)]
[1] Use a flathead screwdriver to turn the
opening/closing screw on side cover L to move
the fingers toward the stroke center.
[2] Spray grease in the gap (i.e., over the rollers)
between the finger and finger guide (4 locations;
keep the spray time to a maximum of 1 second
at each location). After spraying, turn the
opening/closing screw to move the fingers back
and forth several times to spread the grease
evenly. Remove excess grease or grease
spatters in surrounding areas.
Warning
x
Never use fluorine grease. If fluorine grease is mixed with lithium grease, the lubricating function of
grease will drop and the machine may suffer damage due to increased friction.
x
Do not use spray oil. Be sure to use spray grease. Keep the spray time to a maximum of 1 second,
and never spray more than once. If too much grease is applied, excess grease may flow into the
electronic components and cause malfunction.
Warning
x
The encoder phase has been precisely adjusted to ensure accurate detection of rotational angle and
home signal. To prevent gripper failure due to an offset encoder phase, never touch the encoder.
