The Model 8-HD Telemanipulator is a reinforced version of the Model 8 manipulator. Important components have been redesigned or reinforced to provide the additional capacity. A dual-ratio automatic pistol grip handle combined with rugged-duty tongs provides adequate gripping force.
| Dimensions in inches | Typical | Formula | |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | Centerline Distance | 78.00 | H + I + J |
| B | Slave Extended Length | 95.95 | {SQRT[(R*R) + (L*L)]} - 6 |
| C | Removal Clearance | 148.00 | A + F + 13 |
| D | Separation (28 min.) | 28.00 | |
| E | Minimum Cell Depth | 53.00 | F - 4 |
| F | Slave Collapsed Length | 56.95 | 1.25(Z) + 8.2 |
| G | Master Collapsed Length | 56.95 | 1.25(Z) + 8.2 |
| H | Slave Overhang (8 min.) | 18.00 | |
| I | Wall Thickness | 36.00 | |
| J | Master Overhang (24 min.) | 24.00 | |
| K | Mounting Height | 120.00 | |
| L | Operating Height | 80.00 | |
| R | Tong Tip Radius at L | 63.20 | |
| Z | "Z" Motion | 39.00 | 0.444(B) - 3.65 |
If B <62.2 or Z < 24, the following formulas apply:
| Dimensions in inches | Formula | |
|---|---|---|
| F | Slave Collapsed Length | Z + 14.2 |
| G | Master Collapsed Length | Z + 14.2 |
| Z | "Z" Motion | 0.5(Z) - 7.1 |
F and G need not be equal, but Z must be based on the shorter of the two dimensions.
Note: Allow space for manipulator accessories.
