QD008-27 5. Basic Operation

5. Basic Operation
5.1 Pulling Out/Returning a Module
Modules can be pulled forward to allow access to the items within the module. This is
required when changing head or nozzle stations. This also allows cleaning and lubrication
of the module to be performed easier.
Note: When performing paired production, the paired modules are attached together. Pull both
modules forward because they are attached together.

CAUTION

A module should never be pulled out with an tray unit-L/LT/LTC


attached to it. It is possible that machine damage may occur under
such circumstances. First, remove the tray unit-L/LT/LTC and then
pull the module forward.

When pulling forward or pushing in modules with a tray unit-M, tray


type feeders, or a reject parts conveyor set in the module, do so
slowly and carefully. Also, check the state of the parts after
completing the action. There is a danger that parts may shift or
jump out of their trays if the module is moved too quickly.

5.1.1 Pulling out a module


1. With the module not operating, push MANUAL to display the manual commands.

2. When the module and waste tape processing unit are the type that support the tray unit-
LT air blow exhaust, remove the plugs from the sockets in the front cover and remove
the air tubes.
Caution: Store the air tubes in the base so that they do not get caught between the module and the
base when the module is pulled forward.

3. Use the arrow keys to highlight the cleaning pictogram.

Cleaning

01MEC-0001E

4. Ensure that when the module moves forward that nothing will be struck or pinched by
the module. When safe to unclamp the module, push OK and the module is
automatically unclamped. When the module is unclamped it moves a short distance
forward.
Note: If the module is not unclamped, check the cause based on the error message that displays.
M3(S) modules will not be unclamped if the XS-axis for that module or the neighboring
modules are in an unsafe position (i.e., protuding into another module).

5. Grip the handle for the module and squeezee to release the module brake and gently
pull the module forward until the module hits the stopper.
Note: When performing paired production, pull both modules forward at the same time.

WARNING

There is a limit to the number of modules that can be pulled out


safely at the same time. (Maximum: Four M3(S) modules on an 8M
base, or two M3(S) modules on a 4M base.)
If the maximum is exceeded, the entire machine may fall over to the
front, possibly resulting in serious physical harm.

CAUTION

Do not insert fingers or other body parts into the gap between the
machine side cover and base, because they could be injured when
the module is pulled out.

When pulling forward or returning a module, move the module


gently and slowly so it will not strike the stopper. It is possible that
the machine position may move if the module strikes the stopper.

96 NXT Mechanical Reference


QD008-27 5. Basic Operation

5.1.2 Returning a module


1. Ensure that the XS-axis or any other items are not protuding from the module before
returning the module. If the axis is protuding, move the axis to a safe position before
returning the module.

2. For the M3(S) module, grip the handle for the module and squeezee to release the
module brake and gently push the module back.

WARNING

When pulling out or pushing in a module, do not insert hands or


other body parts in between modules. If caught between modules,
fingers or other body parts could be cut or severed

CAUTION

When pulling forward or returning a module, move the module


gently and slowly so it will not strike the stopper.

3. Stop pushing when the module reaches the end of the possible movement and it cannot
be pushed back more. At this point, the machine will automatically clamp the module.
If no error occurs and the module is not automatically clamped, gently pull the module
forward a short distance and then push back into position.

4. When the module and waste tape processing unit are the type that support the tray unit-
LT air blow exhaust, connect the air tube plugs that stick out from waste tape duct to the
sockets in the front cover of the module.

5.8.1 Important points when removing and attaching heads
Take account of the following points when removing or attaching heads.

WARNING
Only remove and attach heads using the head exchange command,
or after turning off the main switch on the machine. Also, do not
contact the head with the linear motor. The head becomes
unusable if these instructions are not followed.

a. When removing or attaching heads, do so only following the procedures in this


manual. When the head is removed or attached under the following conditions, if the
power to the machine is on during the procedure, a 3A1F error will occur.
Caution: If this error occurs, this head can no longer be used. In this case, contact your Fuji
representative.

• CYCLE STOP was pushed to stop operation.

• The head was moved using the head positioning command.

• EMERGENCY STOP was pushed to cut the 200V power.

• The side door was opened.

b. Because the Y-axis motors in M6S modules generate a strong magnetic field, be
sure to prevent heads from being pulled to the motor.
Caution: If the head contacts the shaft, stop using the head and contact your Fuji representative.

QD008-27 5. Basic Operation

6. Grip the handle for the module and squeezee to release the module brake and gently
pull the module forward until the module hits the stopper..

WARNING

There is a limit to the number of modules that can be pulled out


safely at the same time. (Maximum: Four M3(S) modules on an 8M
base, or two M3(S) modules on a 4M base.)
If the maximum is exceeded, the entire machine may fall over to the
front, possibly resulting in serious physical harm.

CAUTION

Do not insert fingers or other body parts into the gap between the
machine side cover and base, because they could be injured when
the module is pulled out.

When pulling forward or returning a module, move the module


gently and slowly so it will not strike the stopper. It is possible that
the machine position may move if the module strikes the stopper.

When pulling forward or pushing in modules with a tray unit-M, tray


type feeders, or a reject parts conveyor set in the module, do so
slowly and carefully. Also, check the state of the parts after
completing the action. There is a danger that parts may shift or
jump out of their trays if the module is moved too quickly.

7. If the head is not in a good position, manually move the head by pulling the XY-slide until
the head is in a good position for removal. Do not move the head by pushing or pulling
the head or handle on the head.

5. Ensure that when the module moves forward that nothing will be struck or pinched by
the module. When safe to unclamp the module, push OK and the module is
automatically unclamped. When the module is unclamped it moves a short distance
forward.

CAUTION

The module moves forward several centimeters when the OK


button is pushed. Be careful of this so to avoid personal injury and
mechanical damage.

Note: If the module is not unclamped, check the cause based on the error message that displays.
M3(S) modules will not be unclamped if the XS-axis for that module or the neighboring
modules are in an unsafe position (i.e., protuding into another module).

6. Grip the handle for the module and squeezee to release the module brake and gently
pull the module forward until the module hits the stopper.

WARNING

There is a limit to the number of modules that can be pulled out


safely at the same time. (Maximum: Four M3(S) modules on an 8M
base, or two M3(S) modules on a 4M base.)
If the maximum is exceeded, the entire machine may fall over to the
front, possibly resulting in serious physical harm.

CAUTION

Do not insert fingers or other body parts into the gap between the
machine side cover and base, because they could be injured when
the module is pulled out.

When pulling out or pushing in a module, do not insert hands or


other body parts in between modules. If caught between modules,
fingers or other body parts could be cut or severed.

When pulling forward or pushing in modules with a tray unit-M, tray


type feeders, or a reject parts conveyor set in the module, do so
slowly and carefully. Also, check the state of the parts after
completing the action. There is a danger that parts may shift or
jump out of their trays if the module is moved too quickly.

5.10 Exchanging Backup Plates


Backup plates or frames can be exchanged manually when needed. There are four
methods for exchanging these items.

• Exchanging both lanes at the same time

• Bringing lane 2 forward and exchanging one lane at a time

• Changing from single lane production to dual lane production

• Changing from dual lane production to single lane production

In addition, the procedures when a tray unit-L/LT is attached are different.

For M6S modules, wait until the shaft for the linear motor cools to room temperature and
then set the protective covers on the shaft.

NXTBAS275Eb

WARNING

• Contact with the shaft or coil section of the Y-axis linear motor in a
M6S module could cause burns. Do not contact the shaft or coil
section immediately after production is stopped.

• A strong magnetic field is generated by the Y-axis linear motor in


M6S modules. People with a heart pacemaker should stay clear of
the shaft and coil sections of the linear motor (maintain a distance
of 400 mm or more). Pacemakers may malfunction because of the
magnetic field.

CAUTION
• Do not push or pull on the head body or use the handle on the
head to move the XY robot position.

• Do not push on the X-axis gear cover. Otherwise the gear cover
may be deformed.

NXT Mechanical Reference 159


5. Basic Operation QD008-27

CAUTION
• Be careful of the magnetic attraction when using metal items near
the linear motor of a M6S module.

• Damage to items may occur due to the magnetic field generated


by a linear motor. Keep magnetic cards, wristwatches and other
precision machines away from the linear motor of a M6S module
(do not bring within 55 mm).

• Do not hit the linear scale of a M6S module when exchanging the
head and performing maintenance. If the linear scale is damaged
then errors will occur and production may not be possible. In this
case it will be necessary to replace the linear scale.

6. Preventive Maintenance
6.1 About Preventative Maintenance
Preventative maintenance involves such tasks as regular inspections, cleaning and
lubrication, and is indispensable for the purpose of avoiding machine errors, and ensuring
that the machine performs according to the design specifications. Please ensure to adhere
strictly to the following guidelines when performing preventative maintenance procedures.

• The preventive maintenance items noted here are mainly directed towards
maintenance staff. However, there are certain tasks whose responsibility lies
with the operators.

• This section lists only those maintenance items related to the machine itself.
Please refer to the "FUJI Intelligent Feeder Manual" for details on feeder
maintenance.

• A maintenance manual related only to head maintenance “Placing Head


Maintenance Manual” is available. Contact your Fuji representative for details.

When pulling forward modules, use the manual mode cleaning command to unclamp
modules.

6.1.1 Maintenance frequency


Fuji recommends that preventative maintenance tasks be performed at 1 day (24 hrs), 1
week (160 hrs), 1 month (700 hrs), 3 month (2,000 hrs), 6 month (4,000 hrs), 1 year (8,000
hrs) and 12,000 hour intervals. Furthermore, it is also recommended that maintenance be
performed periodically after long periods of continuous operation, and at those times when
experiencing production related problems on the machine. (Refer to section 6.2
"Maintenance Checklist".)

NXT Mechanical Reference 227


6. Preventive Maintenance QD008-27

6.1.2 Points of caution


• Follow the prescribed procedures for performing preventative maintenance only
after stopping the machine. At all other times, perform maintenance after
turning OFF the machine power, disconnecting the air supply and releasing
existing air from the air-hose.

• Do not direct compressed air inside the machine/modules when performing


maintenance, as scattered small chips or foreign objects may result in damage
to the machine during operation.

• Use a cloth to wipe off any excess grease.

• Do not use an air gun or similar tool to blow pressurized air into the vacuum
pressure supply opening on the rear side of the placement head. Doing so can
damage the internal section of the head and cause it to malfunction.

6.1.4 Applying grease


There are several methods for applying grease such as applying grease to grease fittings,
using a brush, spraying from a can. The procedures to be used to apply grease depending
on the location are explained step-by-step later in this chapter. This section explains the
two typical grease application methods that are used.
Note: A Fuji grease gun is used for calculating the amount of grease to be applied. One shot from
the grease gun (1 pump) is approximately 0.6 cc. Use the number of shots as the target
when applying grease. The number of shots specified is a little more than the required
amount of grease. Clean off any extra grease that comes out.

Typical lubrication methods


Applying grease to grease fittings
1. Wipe off any filth from the ball screws and LM guides with a clean cloth.

2. Use the grease gun from the Fuji grease gun kit (AWPJ8201) to apply the required
number of shots to the grease fitting on the ball screws/LM guides.

3. Wipe off any excess grease off from the ball screw/LM guide with a clean cloth.

4. Manually move the unit to work in the grease on the ball screws/LM guides. (Move one
full stroke)

5. Wipe off any excess grease with a clean cloth again.

Applying grease with a brush (or spray can)


1. Wipe off any filth from the ball screws and LM guides with a clean cloth.

2. Use the grease gun from the Fuji grease gun kit (AWPJ8201) to apply the required
number of shots directly to a brush and then apply the grease to the applicable area on
the unit. Spread the grease evenly with the brush.

3. When spraying, directly spray the grease on the unit.

4. Wipe off any excess grease off from the unit with a clean cloth.

5. Manually move the unit to work in the grease on the ball screws/LM guides. (Move one
full stroke)

6. Wipe off any excess grease with a clean cloth again.

6.4.5 Cleaning inside the module

WARNING

• Contact with the shaft or coil section of the Y-axis linear motor in a
M6S module could cause burns. Do not contact the shaft or coil
section immediately after production is stopped.

• A strong magnetic field is generated by the Y-axis linear motor in


M6S modules. People with a heart pacemaker should stay clear of
the shaft and coil sections of the linear motor (maintain a distance
of 400 mm or more). Pacemakers may malfunction because of the
magnetic field.

CAUTION

• Do not push or pull on the head body or use the handle on the
head to move the XY robot position.

• Do not push on the X-axis gear cover. Otherwise the gear cover
may be deformed.

• When working close to the linear motor of a M6S module (within


55 mm) do not use ordinary metal tools. Use only nonmagnetic
tools.

• Damage to items may occur due to the magnetic field generated


by a linear motor. Keep magnetic cards, wristwatches and other
precision machines away from the linear motor of a M6S module
(do not bring within 55 mm).

• Do not hit the linear scale of a M6S module when exchanging the
head and performing maintenance. If the linear scale is damaged
then errors will occur and production may not be possible. In this
case it will be necessary to replace the linear scale.

6.5.10 Checking and replacing mechanical valve O-rings


<H04/H08/H12(S)/H12HS head>
Measure the up and down sliding resistance of the mechanical valve and decide whether
the O-rings are good or need to be replaced.

1. Attach the mechanical valve sliding resistance measuring head (AA6KN**) to a push-
pull gauge.
Note: Use a push-pull gauge that has a maximum load value of 10 N.

2. Remove the placing head. (Refer to section 5.8 "Removing/Attaching a Placing Head"
for details.)

3. Set the measuring head on the mechanical valve and read the measurement values on
the push-pull gauge as the you move the valve up and down.

4. Measure all of the mechanical valves. If any measurements fall out of the permissible
range of 0.4 N to 2.0 N, then exchange the O-rings for that mechanical valve. Refer to
section 6.9.4 "Replacing and lubricating the placing head mechanical valve O-rings" for
procedures on exchanging these items.
Note: The illustration below shows a H08 head, but perform the same work for the H04, H12(S),
and H12HS heads.

6.7.1 XY-robot lubrication

WARNING
• Contact with the shaft or coil section of the Y-axis linear motor in a M6S
module could cause burns. Do not contact the shaft or coil section
immediately after production is stopped.

• A strong magnetic field is generated by the Y-axis linear motor in M6S


modules. People with a heart pacemaker should stay clear of the shaft and
coil sections of the linear motor (maintain a distance of 400 mm or more).
Pacemakers may malfunction because of the magnetic field.

CAUTION
• Do not push or pull on the head body or use the handle on the head to
move the XY robot position.

• Do not push on the X-axis gear cover. Otherwise the gear cover may be
deformed.

• When working close to the linear motor of a M6S module (within 55 mm)
do not use ordinary metal tools. Use only nonmagnetic tools.

• Damage to items may occur due to the magnetic field generated by a linear
motor. Keep magnetic cards, wristwatches and other precision machines
away from the linear motor of a M6S module (do not bring within 55 mm).

• Do not hit the linear scale of a M6S module when exchanging the head
and performing maintenance. If the linear scale is damaged then errors will
occur and production may not be possible. In this case it will be necessary
to replace the linear scale.

Wait until the shaft for the linear motor cools to room temperature and then set the
protective covers on the shaft.

1. Use the nozzle station exchange command in manual mode to remove the nozzle
station. Refer to section 5.9 "Removing/Attaching a Nozzle Station" for details on
performing this action.
Note: When the nozzle station exchange command is used, the nozzle changer is raised and
exposes the locations on the shafts to be lubricated.

2. In order to not get any grease on the parts camera, cover the parts camera with some
type of cover such as cloth.

3. Push the jig firmly against the top of the nozzle changer while pushing in the direction of
the arrows shown below depending on the shaft being lubricated. With the jig in place,
insert the nozzle of the Biral T&D lubricant into the jig and apply a small amount of
lubricant (approximately 0.5 seconds).
Caution: It is necessary to use the tube supplied with the Biral T&D (2.2 mm in diameter). If a
different diameter tube is used, then the proper amount of lubricate cannot be applied or
the lubricant will not go to the correct place.
Note: If the jig strap is placed around the hand when using the jig, then the jig cannot be dropped
while using it.

1. Pull out the module. (Refer to " 5.1 Pulling Out/Returning a Module ".)

2. Turn off the NXT machine by turning the main switch off.

WARNING

• Always turn the machine main switch OFF before performing this
work.

3. Wait until the shaft for the linear motor cools to room temperature and then set the
protective covers on the shaft.

WARNING

• Contact with the shaft or coil section of the Y-axis linear motor in a
module could cause burns. Do not contact the shaft or coil section
immediately after production is stopped.

• A strong magnetic field is generated by the Y-axis linear motor in


modules. People with a heart pacemaker should stay clear of the
shaft and coil sections of the linear motor (maintain a distance of
400 mm or more). Pacemakers may malfunction because of the
magnetic field.

CAUTION

• Do not push or pull on the head body or use the handle on the
head to move the XY robot position.

• Do not push on the X-axis gear cover. Otherwise the gear cover
may be deformed.

• When working close to the linear motor (within 55 mm) do not use
ordinary metal tools. Use only nonmagnetic tools.

• Damage to items may occur due to the magnetic field generated


by a linear motor. Keep magnetic cards, wristwatches and other
precision machines away from the linear motor (do not bring within
55 mm).

• Do not hit the linear scale when exchanging the head and
performing maintenance. If the linear scale is damaged then errors
will occur and production may not be possible. In this case it will
be necessary to replace the linear scale.

2. While holding the nozzle correctly, use the correct size of drill on the nozzle cleaning jig
for the nozzle in question to clean the nozzle tip area and back area. Refer to the chart
in the " Selecting the correct drill bit for the nozzle size " on the previous page. In
addition, disassemble the H01 1.0 mm nozzle and clean the nozzle end.
Note: Hold the nozzle at the ceramic part of the tip as shown below when cleaning nozzles with
the drill jig. If the sleeve of the nozzle is held (as shown below) to clean the nozzle, the
connection to the ceramic part of the nozzle may become loose or damaged.

blow away any remaining cleaning solution.

4. Confirm that the nozzle pipe moves up and down smoothly. Check by pushing the end
of the nozzle with a push-pull gauge and confirm that movement occurs with a force of
20 gf or less. In addition, check the flange surface of H01 head nozzles for indentations,
bulges, or burrs.
Caution: Do not use the nozzle if the nozzle pipe does not move smoothly or requires more than 20
gf to move, because this may negatively affect production.

Cleaning with an ultrasonic cleaner


Follow the conditions below when using an ultrasonic cleaning unit to clean nozzles.

• Cleaning equipment: 60W or more for eyewear use or precious metal cleaning

• Cleaning fluid: Ethanol or isopropyl alcohol based cleaning fluids

• Cleaning time: 15 minutes

• Do not use an ultrasonic cleaner to clean nozzles with 2D code labels (stickers). It is only
possible to use the ultrasonic cleaner for nozzles which have laser etched 2D codes.

• To ensure that the cleaning fluid used does not damage the coating of the nozzles, it is
recommended to test 1 or 2 nozzles before cleaning all of the nozzles.

• Immediately after cleaning, use an air gun to remove any excess cleaning fluid from the
nozzles. Furthermore, carefully maintain the cleanliness of the cleaning fluids to ensure
that the nozzles do not become dirty from the cleaning fluid itself.

• When cleaning nozzles with rubber tips, do not immerse the rubber section in cleaning
solution (this includes water). The rubber will degrade and may cause problems during
production. If using the ultrasonic cleaner to clean nozzles with rubber tips, set the nozzles
so that the rubber section protrudes above the level of the cleaning solution and ensure they
don't fall over when the cleaner vibrates.

WARNING

There is a limit to the number of the modules that can be pulled out
at safely at the same time. (Maximum: Four M3(S) modules on an
8M base, or two M3(S) modules on a 4M base). If the maximum is
exceeded, the entire machine may fall over to the front, possibly
resulting in serious physical harm.

As a countermeasure to static electricity, put on an electrostatic discharge wristband (with


a resistance of 1 megaohm or greater).The connection points for the wrist strap (labeled
EARTH BONDING POINT) are located on the front and back of the base..

CAUTION
It is possible that electrical items will be damaged if the person
performing the work is not grounded to prevent electrostatic.

9.1.2 About the sample job


The machine application CD-ROM has sample jobs for on machine PAM. Change the
sample job that has the conditions you are to measure so that it matches the machine
configuration..

Head type sample job

H01 PAM_H01_Glass_Shuffle_S.JOB

H02 PAM_H02_Glass_Shuffle_S.JOB
H04 PAM_H04_Glass_Shuffle_S.JOB

G04 PAM_G04_Glass_Shuffle_S.JOB

OF PAM_OF_Glass_Shuffle_S.JOB

H08 PAM_H08_1005_S.JOB

H12(S), H12HS PAM_H12S_1005_S.JOB

There are 64 placements when measuring H02, H04, and G04 heads. When there are only
32 glass parts, this is insufficient for the required placement quantity. Divide the
placements in the sample job into 32 placements for two jobs. By dividing into two jobs, it
is possible to acquire data for the required amount of placements.
Caution: Do not change the sequence or part related data.
Do not optimize the job.

9.1.3 Notes on performing on machine PAM


During PAM measurements, the following are important:

• PAM is not supported for double lane conveyance. When a job that uses both
lane 1 and 2 is specified, measurement can only be performed on lane 1. To
perform PAM on lane 2, send a job which only uses lane 2 to the machine.

• When measuring the glass parts at lane 2, use the pickup position which is
exactly 64 places in front of the jig.

• If "NaN" displays above the measured PAM results on the operation panel, this
indicates that a vision processing error may have occurred during the
measuring process. If "NaN" or blank lines are in the results file, ignore the
affected data.

9.1.8 Creating a final offset file


With [PAM mode] a final offset file is created after the completion of PAM measurements.
There are two ways to create a final offset file, the easy creation method and the manual
creation method.

The easy creation method does not use Accessory Software and the final offset values can
be sent to the machine easily. Use the easy creation method except when it is strictly
necessary to use the manual method. The manual method should only be used when the
following is true.

a. Offset values are to be edited

b. When measuring H02, H04 or G04 heads on machines with single or double
conveyors and there are only 32 glass parts.
Caution: Do not change the name of the final offset file. The file may not be able to be read by the
machine and the offset values will not be saved in the machine.

The final offset file cannot be created in [Accuracy check mode]. To acquire the
measurement results when using this mode, save the data in the same manner as for the
manual creation method.

Final offset file easy creation method


1. When the PAM results are displayed on the operation panel, use the arrow keys to
select the easy creation command and push OK. The final offset file will be created
momentarily and the main screen displayed.

01MEC-0641

2. When measuring again to confirm the accuracy, set the jig plate in the machine and
push START. Pushing start saves the final offset file in the machine and starts
measurement.

3. When PAM is complete, create a backup of the final offset file. Select [Calibration] -
[Delete and save offset file] in Accessory Software.

01MEC-0642E

546 NXT Mechanical Reference


QD008-27 9. Measurement and Adjustment

4. Select the final offset file to backup and click [Save file].

01MEC-0643E

5. With the easy creation method, it is not necessary to transmit the file. The offset file is
saved in the machine automatically at any of the following points.

• When START is pushed with the machine in PAM mode

• When the machine is changed from PAM mode to production mode

• When the machine is restarted

Final offset file manual creation method


Note: The steps shown below are guidance to operations in Accessory Software. For further
details, refer to on machine PAM in the Accessory Software operation manual on line.

1. When the PAM results are displayed on the operation panel, use the arrow keys to
select the manual creation command and push OK. The main screen displays.

9.1.10 Changing the type of PAM mode


There are three type of PAM modes available. These three types are [Place & Measure],
[Measure], and [Place]. The [Place & measure] mode is the default type. With this type of
mode, the parts are picked and placed on the module and then the placing accuracy is
measured on the module. If [Place] is specified, then the module only places the PAM parts
on the glass board. If [Measure] is specified, then the module only measures the placing
accuracy of previously placed PAM parts.

Follow the procedures below to change the type of PAM mode.

1. When in PAM mode, push MANUAL to display the manual commands

9.2 Sensitivity Adjustment for the Conveyor Panel


Pass Sensor
The panel pass sensors for the conveyor are transmission sensors. The sensitivity of these
sensors is automatically adjusted so that precise detection of panels is maintained even if
the conveyor width is changed. There are cases in which errors occur due to items such
as manually changing the conveyor width because the automatic sensitivity adjustment is
not performed. When errors occur, follow one of the methods below to restore the
automatic adjustment.

a. Turn the ballscrew by hand for the conveyor to make the width narrower until a
positive values display in the sensor amplifiers. (Check the sensor amplifier and
when a positive value displays, the automatic sensitivity adjust function is restored).

b. Reset the sensor sensitivity using Accessory Software. (See section 9.2.1 "Remote
adjustment procedure" for details).

c. Manually reset the sensor sensitivity at the sensor amplifier on the machine. (See
section 9.2.2 "On-machine adjustment procedure" for details).

WARNING

• Contact with the shaft or coil section of the Y-axis linear motor in a
M6S module could cause burns. Do not contact the shaft or coil
section immediately after production is stopped.

• A strong magnetic field is generated by the Y-axis linear motor in


M6S modules. People with a heart pacemaker should stay clear of
the shaft and coil sections of the linear motor (maintain a distance
of 400 mm or more). Pacemakers may malfunction because of the
magnetic field.

CAUTION

• Do not push or pull on the head body or use the handle on the
head to move the XY robot position.

• Do not push on the X-axis gear cover. Otherwise the gear cover
may be deformed.

• When working close to the linear motor of a M6S module (within


55 mm) do not use ordinary metal tools. Use only nonmagnetic
tools.

• Damage to items may occur due to the magnetic field generated


by a linear motor. Keep magnetic cards, wristwatches and other
precision machines away from the linear motor of a M6S module
(do not bring within 55 mm).

NXT Mechanical Reference 557


9. Measurement and Adjustment QD008-27

CAUTION

• Do not hit the linear scale of a M6S module when exchanging the
head and performing maintenance. If the linear scale is damaged
then errors will occur and production may not be possible. In this
case it will be necessary to replace the linear scale.

Accessory Software is much easier to perform than on-machine adjustment, particularly
when many modules exist in a line.

1. Start Accessory Software and from Floor Monitor, click the machine name that has the
sensor to be adjusted. The machine Accessories log on page is displayed.

2. Select a user ID from the drop-down list.

3. Enter the password for the user and click [Log on].

4. Select the module on which to adjust the sensor and click [Remote Operation].

5. Click [Conveyor sensor sensitivity adjustment].

6. Ensure that there are no panels or any other items blocking any of the sensors and then
click [Start]. The sensitivity for the conveyor sensors for the selected module are
adjusted,

9.7.1 Required items


• Jigs PM4577*

NXTBAS195

• Metric Allen wrench set

The jig plate is a 100 mm square plate. Two sides of the jig plate have a thickness of 7.5
mm +/-0.01 and the other two sides have a thickness of 7.4 mm +/-0.01.

9.7.2 Procedure
1. Pull the module that needs to be adjusted forward. (Refer to 5.1 "Pulling Out/Returning
a Module".) If the module has a side cover, remove the side cover to allow easier access
to the sensor position.

2. Push and hold POWER on the operation panel for more than four seconds and then
release to change the module to sleep mode.

3. Manually change the conveyor width for the lane to be adjusted until the jig plate can be
set in it. Turn the ballscrews to change the conveyor width.
Note: An easier method for adjusting the conveyor exists but requires some planning. Before
attempting to adjust the panel clamper sensor, make a job with a 100 x 100 mm panel, and
then transmit it to the machine and begin production without loading any panels. The
conveyors will be changed to 100 wide for the panel from the job.

4. Set the jig so the edges that are 7.5 mm thick will be clamped by the conveyor.

5. Clamp the jig.
