3.1 Transport and Storage
This equipment must be shipped and stored in a temperature-controlled environment,
within the range –25° to +55° C (-13° to 131° F). The recommended humidity range is 5 to
90 percent, non-condensing. It should be shipped and stored in the Adept-supplied crate,
which is designed to prevent damage from normal shock and vibration. You should
protect the crate from excessive shock and vibration.
Use a forklift, pallet jack, or similar device to transport and store the packaged equipment.
The robots 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 Adept Quattro s650 robot weighs 117 kg (258 lb) with no options installed.
3.2 Unpacking and Inspecting the Adept Equipment
Before Unpacking
Carefully inspect all shipping crates for evidence of damage during transit. Pay special
attention to tilt and shock indication labels on the exteriors of the containers. If any
damage is indicated, request that the carrier’s agent be present at the time the container is
unpacked.
Unpacking
The Adept Quattro s650 robot is shipped in a crate that holds the robot base, outer arms,
platform, controller, miscellaneous hardware, and any accessories ordered. The crate will
be either wooden or combined wood and cardboard.
The top of the crate should be removed first.
• Wooden crate: Remove the spring clamps attaching the top to the rest of the crate.
• Combination wood/cardboard crate: Remove the bands holding the top to the rest
of the crate.
Refer to Figure 3-1 .
The outer arms will be above the robot base. These should be removed from the crate,
followed by the cardboard and foam that support them.
