13.1 Inspection/Maintenance
Your horizontal articulated robot must be inspected daily and on a regular basis to ensure safe, efficient
operation. Perform the necessary inspections after confirming the maintenance/inspection items required for
your IAI robot, as defined in this section.
Do not inspect, adjust or repair the robot or controller, replace any of the robot/controller parts, or perform any
other operation in a manner not specified in this operation manual. In particular, do not disassemble the robot or
controller or cut any robot/controller cable in the installation location because it will necessitate adjustments
using factory machines.
Disassembly of servo motor
Disassembly of ball reduction gear
Disassembly of ball-screw spline
Disassembly of bearing
Disassembly of harmonic speed reducer
Disassembly of brake
Cutting of cable
IAI may not be able to repair any malfunction or failure occurring as a result of or in connection with the
performance of any of the operations listed above.
Periodic inspection covers items that must be performed with or without the controller power turned on. In either
case, take proper measures so that operators other than the person carrying out the inspection will not be able
to accidentally operate the power switch.
Performing inspection or maintenance without fully understanding the details of work may result in a
serious accident.
If inspections are neglected, the drive part may wear prematurely or the robot may malfunction
unexpectedly.
