TUBING BUNDLE INSTALLATION
Typically, the tubing bundle is pulled through
the robot arm from the robot wrist side. Keep
the bundle taped except for the bundle that
will be inside the arm. Pull the tubing through
the wrist and arm, leaving about 250mm (10-
inch) of tubing sticking out the front of the
wrist plate. (See “Tubing Bundle Installation”
figure in the “Installation” section.)
Fasten the cable bundle at the exit of the arm.
Push the robot spacer plate and applicator
mounting plate to the robot wrist plate aligning
the top dead center marks of the spacer plate
and robot wrist plate. Fasten using
appropriate screws. Install the tubing bundle
in this fashion will increase tubing bundle life
significantly.
BUNDLE LUBRICANT
When the tubing bundle is installed, it should
be lubricated with a generous amount of lubri-
cant to increase the service life of the tubes.
A recommended lubricant is Shell Alvania EP
#02. There are other lubricants that are avail-
able for use. Prior to using a lubricant, ensure
it is silicone free, resists heat breakdown, and
is compatible with the materials it will contact.
It is recommended that tubing bundles be re-
greased every six months maximum.
