  • Page 13: Introduction

    The YK-X series robots have a two-joint manipulator consisting of an X-axis arm and a Y-axis arm, and are further equipped with a vertical axis (Z-axis) and a rotating axis (R-axis) at the tip of the manipulator. The YK-X series robots can be used for a wide range of assembly applications such as installation and insertion of various parts, application of sealant, and packing operations.

  • Page 14: Signal Symbols

    This user's manual describes the safety measures, handling, adjustment and maintenance of YK-X series robots for correct, safe and effective use. Be sure to read this manual carefully before installing the robot. Even after you have read this manual, keep it in a safe and convenient place for future reference. This user's manual should be used with the robot and considered an integral part of it.

  • Page 15: Before Using The Robot (Be Sure To Read The Following Notes.)

    Before using the robot (Be sure to read the following notes.) At this time, our thanks for your purchase of this YAMAHA YK-X series SCARA robot. NOTE In the RCX340 controller, axis names are called using numeric values, like axis-1, axis-2, axis-3, and so on. In this manual, axis names are called using alphabetic characters, like X-axis, Y-axis, Z-axis, and so on.
  • Page 16 Robot malfunctions (vibration, noise) may also occur. The origin position of the YK-X series robots is adjusted to the robot arm extended position at the factory prior to shipment, so the reference or standard coordinates are temporarily set. The customer should set the origin position before any other job.

    The YK-X series robots are available in 4-axis models having an X/Y-axis arm (equivalent to human arm) and a Z/R-axis (equivalent to human wrist). With these 4 axes, the YK-X series robots can move as shown in the figure below. By attaching different types of end effector (gripper) to the end of the arm, a wide range of tasks can be performed with high precision at high speeds.

    40μm or less Working space Allow sufficient space margin to perform jobs (teaching, inspection, repair, etc.) For detailed information on how to install the robot controller, refer to the separate "YAMAHA Robot Controller User's Manual". WARNING • Avoid installing the robot in locations where the ambient conditions may exceed the allowable temperature or humidity, or in environments where water, corrosive gases, metallic powder or dust are generated.

  • Page 30: Installation Base

    Installation base Prepare a sufficiently rigid and stable installation base, taking account of the robot weight including the end effector (gripper), workpiece and reaction force while the robot is operating. WARNING • Be sure to install the robot on a horizontal surface with the base mount section facing down. If the orientation of the base mount section is not observed when installing the robot, the grease of the speed reduction unit may leak.

  • Page 31: Installation

    The equipment and tools used for moving the robot should be checked daily. The YK-X series robot comes packed with a robot controller and accessories, according to the order specifications. Using a carrying cart (dolly) or forklift, move the package to near the installation base. Take sufficient care not to apply shocks to the equipment when unpacking it.

  • Page 76: Limiting Movement Range With X-Axis Mechanical Stoppers

    7. Limiting movement range with X-axis mechanical stoppers In the YK-X series the movement range can be limited by changing the X-axis mechanical stopper positions. (The Y-axis mechanical stopper positions are fixed and cannot be changed.) When the robot is shipped from the factory, the movement range is set to the maximum. If the maximum movement range is too large compared to the actual work range, or the manipulator might interfere with peripheral units, then the movement range can be limited as outlined below.

    Over view Various settings have been completely made at the factory or by your distributor before shipment, including the origin position setting. If the operating conditions are changed and the robot needs to be set again, then follow the procedures described in this Chapter. The following describes the safety precautions to be observed when making various settings.

  • Page 100: Adjusting The Origin

    Adjusting the origin The YK-X series robots use an absolute type position detector. The origin position (zero pulse point) can be determined by return-to-origin. Once return-to-origin is performed, you do not have to repeat return-to-origin when turning the power on next time. However, return-to-origin is required if any of the following cases occur.

  • Page 101: Mark Method (X, Y, And R-Axis)

    2.1.2 Mark method (X, Y, and R-axis) In the mark method, the robot is moved to a position beforehand where the return-to-origin is performed and this position is determined to the return-to-origin position. The origin position reset by means of the mark method is called "absolute reset".

  • Page 102: Machine Reference Value

    Machine reference value The position detector of the YK-X series uses a resolver that has four positions where the return-to-origin can be performed per motor revolution. The machine reference value means the position relationship of the position where the robot detects the origin signal to the position where the reset can be performed soon after detection (see the figure below).

    Setting the soft limits On the YK-X series, the working envelope for jog operation and automatic operation can be limited for each axis by specifying a "+" soft limit [pulse] and a "-" soft limit [pulse]. The reference for the soft limit is the origin position (zero pulse), and the working envelope is limited by the number of pulses from the "0"...

  • Page 134: Setting The Z-Axis Soft Limits

    Setting the Z-axis soft limits CAUTION Set the Z-axis soft limits from outside the safety enclosure. The Z-axis has mechanical stoppers fixed at the upper and lower ends of the Z-axis movement range. When the actual working envelope of the robot is smaller than the maximum working envelope or the manipulator interferes with the peripheral equipment, reduce the Z-axis plus (+) soft limit [pulses] to narrow the working envelope.
