Mounting Options
Using the mounting frame design provided by Adept, there are several options for mounting
the Adept Quattro robot:
l Lower the robot into the frame from above, or
Lift the robot into the frame from below.
l Place the robot mounting pads on top of the frame mounting pads, or
Place the robot mounting pads under the frame mounting pads.
l Mounting hardware can be bolts threaded directly into the robot base mounting pads,
or bolts that go through the robot base mounting pads into nuts.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to lift the robot from any
points other than with eyebolts or slings as described
here, or with a padded board, as described here.
Mounting Procedure from Above the Frame
The Adept Quattro robot has four mounting pads. Each pad has one M16 x 2.0 threaded
through-hole. The robot can be mounted either on top of the frame pads, using the bottom
surface of the robot base mounting pads, or to the bottom of the frame pads, using the top
surface of the robot base mounting pads.
Mounting to Top of Frame Pads
This procedure uses two user-supplied M16 x 2.0 eyebolts and jam nuts.
1. Remove all lag bolts from the robot base mounting pads.
2. Screw the M16 eyebolts into opposing robot mounting pads, so that the robot will be
balanced when lifted.
3. Lock each eyebolt with a jam nut.
4. Connect slings to the M16 eyebolts and take up any slack in the slings.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to lift the robot from any
points other than the eyebolts. Failure to comply could
result in the robot falling and causing either personnel
injury or equipment damage.
5. Lift the robot and position it directly over the mounting frame.
6. Slowly lower the robot while aligning the M16 holes in the robot mounting pads with
the holes in the frame mounting pads.
7. When the mounting pad surfaces are touching, start a bolt in each of the two unused
mounting holes. Refer to Install Mounting Hardware on page 35.
8. Remove the slings and M16 eyebolts.
9. Follow the instructions in Install Mounting Hardware on page 35.
