BEFORE YOU START: Please review all the requirements, understand the safety precautions, and prepare the appropriate tools prior to beginning the assembly and initialization of the robotic arm.
WARNING: A collision with Glambot® may cause physical damage to property, person, or the robotic arm. Ensure proper clearance of the robot at all times. All persons and objects must remain outside the work envelope. By operating Glambot® you are assuming the associated risks and liabilities.
ASSEMBLY REQUIREMENTS:
SPACE: 10ft x 10ft footprint / 9ft ceilings
PERSONNEL: Team lift
SURFACE: Solid + stable ground
TIME: Estimated time 30 min
Assembly:
BASE INSTALLATION: Place the BASE on the floor in the desired location with the power strip facing back. Level the BASE using the ratchet adjustment integrated into each of the (4) casters.
BASE PREPARATION: Align and locate the center of the base 8ft from the desired target location. Remove the (2) magnetic PERFORATED PANELS to allow access to the electronics and wiring.
PEDESTAL PREPARATION: Facing the front of the tower ensure the POWER CABLES are laid to the left and the USB CABLES are laid to the right.
PEDESTAL INSTALLATION: Place the PEDESTAL centered on the BASE aligning the mounting holes checking that no wires are pinched. Using the 15mm wrench, attach the (4) M10 flanged hex head bolts - labeled H1. Tighten securely.
PEDESTAL POWER WIRING: Route the (2) power plugs + (1) USB-C cable under the frame and plug into the power strip at the rear of the BASE. Follow the CPU power for a routing reference to the power strip. The USB-C cable will land at the power brick that remains on the power strip.
PEDESTAL USB WIRING: Plug the (2) USB-A cables into the mini-PC. Re-install the (2) magnetic PERFORATED PANELS.
SHOULDER INSTALLATION: Extend the elbow joint out from the stowed 160° to 90°. With the ARM directed straight ahead to the front, align the dowel pin, and set on the PEDESTAL. Attach using the (4) M10 flanged hex head bolts - labeled H1. Tighten securely in a cross pattern.
Note: recommend having (1) bolt ready to install and hold the arm once located
Note: to fully tighten this connection, perform the cross pattern tightening sequence at least twice.
SHOULDER WIRING: Looking from the rear, begin with the right-side harness. Plug in the (5) connectors into the panel on the bottom side of the ARM: • 8-pin elbow connector
4-pin square connector
4-pin rectangle connector
USB-C cable [power] signified by a yellow collar on the cable
USB-C cable [data]
Then, attach the left-side harness. Plug in the (3) connectors of the lift motor harness to the lift motor assembly:
8-pin data connector – into motor
4-pin power connector – into motor
2-pin power connector – into brake
WRIST INSTALLATION: Extend ARM2 to the horizontal position. Orient the wrist assembly such that the nesting motor protrudes up out the top of the arm. Slide the wrist assembly between the plates at the end of the ARM assembly. Using the 10mm wrench, attach the (4) M6 flanged hex head bolts - labeled H2. Tighten securely.
Note: take care not to pinch (2) cables upon inserting WRIST assembly into ARM.
WRIST WIRING: Plug in the (1) free cable to the panel on the top side of the ARM. If holding the ARM, gently let the arm fall to hang vertically.
END EFFECTOR INSTALLATION: Choose your recording device and follow the instruction for that specific end effector in Appendix A. Additional hardware will be required for each mounting type.
Note: Total weight of end effector assembly shall not exceed 3lbs.
ACCESSORY CONNECTIONS: Based on your END EFFECTOR selection, determine whether you will need to connect accessory USB-C cables for charging and/or data transfer. Refer to the schematics for the Power and Data layouts through the unit:
DATA Connection
POWER Connection
You have completed the Glambot® assembly!
DISASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:
POWER OFF: Using the webapp, command the arm to the ‘Extended’ position. Depress the Emergency Stop to remove power from the arm. The motors will disengage and the ELBOW will relax.
DISASSEMBLE: The order for disassembly is opposite of assembly, starting with removing the WRIST assembly, then the ARM assembly, and finally the TOWER.
When disassembling any joint first disconnect the wire connections, then remove any fasteners.
Store fasteners in orderly manner and take care not to pinch any wires during storage of the arm components.
