Replacing the Parallel Plate

Overview

The following figure shows the correct position of the parallel plate with bottom mounting points (1):

Replacing the Parallel Plate

Step

Action

1

Only for robots with a rotational axis (VRKP•••R):

Remove the telescopic axis as described in Replacing the Telescopic Axis.

2

Remove the lower arms as described in Replacing the Lower Arms.

3

Hook in the new parallel plate with the lower arms. Ensure that the mounting side for the gripper is located at the underside, as shown in the figure above.

NOTE: The mounting can be recognized by its threaded holes.

4

Only for robots with a rotational axis (VRKP•••R):

Mount the telescopic axis as described in Replacing the Telescopic Axis.

NOTE: The parallel plate can be rotated by n x 120°. Proceed with particular care in such cases to refit the parallel plate in its original position.

5

Only for robots with a rotational axis (VRKP•••R):

Move the parallel plate slowly and verify the position of the gripper.
