AD0504

Introduction

This procedure will show you how to install the Haas Robot Arm Package-1.

Note: The Haas designed work cell made up of a CNC machine and a robot have been evaluated for compliance to CE requirements. Changes or variations to the Haas cell design should be evaluated for compliance to the applicable standards and are the responsibility of the user/integrator.

Machine Requirements:

  • 100.21.000.1120 version or higher
  • VF-1/2 & VM-2 Built 4-1-2019 and later
  • Haas Autodoor (See machine requirements for CAN Auto Door)
  • REMOTE JOG HANDLE - XL 93-1000610 REMOTE JOG HANDLE TOUCH LCD (RJH-XL)
  • RJH-XL Robot - Upgrade Kit - This procedure will show you how to upgrade your Robot with the RJH-T assembly to work with RJH-XL assembly.
  • I/O board updated to 34-349xB or later
  • I/O PCB HINGE DOOR. 93-1000297 I/O DOOR ASSY HINGED

Fixing / Anchoring Requirements

  • The Haas Robot Package 1 is configured and sold by Haas with a pedestal/table that is sufficiently stable when used according to Haas defined part size and weight limits. 

The Haas Robot Package Includes the following Components:

  • 30-13007    Robot PKG-1 Fence Kit (fencing with gate to enclose the operators station)
  • 32-0911    Gate Interlock

  • Set the main circuit breaker to the [OFF] position.

 Danger: Before beginning any work inside the control cabinet the High Voltage indicator light on the 320V Power Supply / Vector Drive must have been off for at least 5 minutes.

Some service procedures can be dangerous or life-threatening. DO NOT attempt a procedure that you do not fully understand. If you have any doubts about doing a procedure contact your Haas Factory Outlet (HFO) and schedule a service visit.

UMC-500/SS Robot Interface Mounting Location

The Robot electrical interface box has magnetic mounts to attach to the fence sheet metal.

Mount the Robot electrical interface box [1] as shown in the picture.

Route the Robot interface electrical cables [2] along the enclosure with the magnetic mounts and zipties. Route the cable through the bottom of the electrical cabinet.

Perform the following steps to reconnect the robot to the Haas machine.
 

Main Transformer

  • Connect cable [1] P/N 33-8570 to Main Transformer follow the labels to terminals 77 and 78,  connect the ground loop terminal to chassis.

I/O PCB and Maincon PCB

Cable P/N 33-8561C has multiple connections:

  • Connect the E-STOP terminal block connections  to SIO PCB TB-1B (see diagram)[2].
  • Verify the jumper is installed on the SIO PCB at JP1
  • Connect the Setup mode terminal block connections to SIO PCB TB-3B (see diagram)[2].
  • Connect the cable labeled P1 SIO to the SIO PCB at P1[3].
  • Connect the RJ-45 cable [4] to Ethernet to USB adapter [5] (P/N 33-0636).  Connect the USB connector end to the Maincon PCB J8 top port (see diagram). Add a ferrite filter 64-1252 to the USB adapter.
  • Mount the 24VDC Power Supply[11] to the left side of the control cabinet and plug into connector labled 24V PS on cable 33-8561C. Connect cable 33-1910A[10] to the 24VDC Power Supply[11] and plug into P3 on the PSUP PCB.
  • Plug the User Relays into K9 and K10. (see diagram)[12].

Note: If the machine has a Regen Vector Drive, unplug cable 33-0634 FILTER OV TO IOPCB P1 from P1 SIO and plug it into the connector FILTER OV FAULT. If the machine does not have a Regen Vector Drive, do not plug anything into the connector FILTER OV FAULT.

SKBIF to Remote Jog Handle

  • Connect the RJ12 cable 33-8550C[6] from the Remote E-stop box to cable 33-0713 and plug into the SKIBF PCB P9.
  • Remove the jumpers JP2 and JP3 on the SKBIF from the horizontal position and replace them in the vertical position.
  • Plug the RJH-XL cable into the cradle.

 Warning: By not putting the jumpers in the vertical position, E-STOP functionality on the RJH-XL is disabled and the machine is considered unsafe. Jumpers MUST be inserted vertically.

Robot Electrical Box to Robot Control

  • Connect the Robot Control Signal Cables [7] P/N 33-8590A to the Robot Electrical Interface Box. Add a ferrite filter 64-1252 to the RJ-45 cable.

Robot Power

  • Connect the 230VAC Power Cable [8] P/N 33-8530 to the Robot Electrical Interface Box.

Fence Interlock

  • Connect the fence door interlock cable [9] to the electrical interface box.

Grey → 1A    (Open gripper 2)

Blue → 1B    (Close gripper 2)

5

Route the air lines between the robot arm and gripper connecting to the same color coded fittings.

Install conduit to each pair of air lines.

 Note: Turn on the machine air by turning the valve in the CALM cabinet.

Verification

Test the E-stop:

  • Press the Pendant and External E-STOP buttons and make sure the machine generates 107 EMERGENCY STOP alarm.  If the E-STOP button does not generate a 107 EMERGENCY STOP alarm verify the wiring. Load the latest configuration files to enable the RJH-XL.

Test the Gate Interlock on the Fence:

  • With the key inserted in the interlock, the two red LED lights in the front of the interlock should be off. 
  • On the Haas pendant, there should not be any E-stop or light curtain/fence alarms or icon triggered.
  • Remove the key from the interlock. The two red LED lights should turn on and a warning should appear on the Haas pendant for light curtain/fence.
  • Check the light curtain/fence icon show on the screen.  If the icon does not show, verify wiring, alignment and factory setting: 2191 [694:] LIGHT CURTAIN TYPE is set to LC_TYPE_1.

Test the operation of the grippers:

  • Verify that both grippers clamp and unclamp correctly.
  • Press the [CURRENT COMMANDS]  and go to Devices > Robot > Jogging tab.
  • Press [F2] to clamp/unclamp the Finish Gripper.
  • Press [F3] to clamp/unclamp the Raw Gripper.

Test the Remote Jog Handle:

  • Undock the Remote Jog Handle
  • Press the [HANDLE JOG] button. 
  • Press the [CURRENT COMMANDS]  and go to Devices > Robot > Jogging tab.
  • On the Remote Handle Jog press the Joint button to go into the Joints Coordinates.
  • Move the robot to a safe location.

Verify Safe / Run Mode Operation

All Haas CNC machines are equipped with a key switch on the side of the control pendant to lock and unlock setup mode. The robot will have the following behaviors depending on what mode is selected. 

  • When the Haas control is in Run mode, mode 1, unlocking the interlock and opening up the gate stops all motion, and no motion can be started until it is closed and locked.
  • When the Haas control is in Set up mode, mode 2, speed limited motion such as jogging an axis of the robot can be performed in order to program a robot's path of motion, pick up position, set a robot's tool center point, (an offset), load and pick up parts from the spindle or part holder in the machine, etc. The programmed path will also be able to be run slowly to prove out the programmed path of the robot. The robot in setup mode can only be handle jogged while the F2 button the RJH is pressed.

HRP-1 - MOUNT ANGLE SETTING - SETUP

This procedure shows you how to set the Mount Angle Setting for your robot configuration.

  • VF and ST machines, the robot is installed on the angle mount.
  • UMC and DT/DM machines the robot is installed directly to the stand.

Note: The default setting will be for the VF and ST machines, use the procedure below to make sure the UMC and DT/DM machines value is changed correctly.

FANUC Dual Check Safety (DCS) – Setup

Each Haas Robot is provided with FANUC's DCS System. This allows the user to define speed and positional limits to the robot. If the robot goes outside of these limits, DCS will stop the robot and remove power to the motors.

This procedure will show you how to set up a Fanuc Dual Check Safety (DCS) zone.
