Study notes

  • VP-6242 has no J4 of the VP-5243 layout; J4 is a ±160° axis on this model.
  • Arm offset for J3 (front arm) is 75 mm.
  • Overall arm length (first arm + second arm) is 420 mm (210 mm + 210 mm).
  • Maximum allowable inertia moment is 0.03 kgm² for J4/J5 and 0.007 kgm² for J6.
  • User air piping: 4 systems (φ4x4); user signal lines: 9 for proximity sensor signals.
  • Air source operating pressure 0.10 – 0.39 MPa.
  • Noise level below 80 dB(A).
  • Each motor uses a maximum of 80 W; all motors combined use a maximum of 300 W.
  • Footprint is 160 x 160 mm (200 x 200 mm for aseptic models).
  • If wrist downward movement exceeds ±45°, maximum payload is 2 kg.

Safety

  • Brakes are provided for all joints.
  • The VP Series is stated to be ANSI/CE compliant.
  • Maximum allowable air pressure is 0.49 MPa.
