38 Adept Quattro s650H Robot User’s Guide, Rev A

3.5 Mounting Frame

Overview

The Adept Quattro s650H robot is designed to be mounted above the work area

suspended on a user-supplied frame. The frame must be adequately stiff to hold the robot

rigidly in place while the robot platform moves around the workspace.

While Adept does not offer robot frames for purchase, and the frame design is the

responsibility of the user, we provide here some general guidelines as a service to our

users. Adept makes no representation or warranty with respect to these guidelines, or the

rigidity and longevity of the structure designed and built by the user or for the user by a

third party using these guidelines. In addition, when the robot is mounted on the

structure based on these guidelines, Adept does not guarantee that the robot will perform

to the specifications given in this product documentation, due to user’s frame or user’s

production environmental factors.

As an example, a sample frame design is presented and discussed. For generalized

application performance, frames built to the specifications of this sample should

experience no degradation in robot performance due to frame motions. Applications

requiring higher than 6 kg * 10 g forces across the belt and/or 6 kg * 3 g along the belt may

require a stiffer frame design.
