of the holes until grease appears in the
other hole.

3.6.1 Cleaning the IRB 8700
WARNING
Turn off all electrical power supplies to the manipulator before entering its work
space.
General
To secure high uptime it is important that the IRB 8700 is cleaned regularly. The
frequency of cleaning depends on the environment in which the manipulator works.
Different cleaning methods are allowed depending on the type of protection of the
IRB 8700.
Note
Always verify the protection type of the robot before cleaning.
Oil spills
Oil spills from gearboxes
Use the following procedure if any oil spills are detected that can be suspected to
originate from a gearbox.
1
Inspect that the oil level in the suspected gearbox is according to the
recommendations, see Inspection activities on page 110 .
2
Write down the oil level.
3
Inspect the oil level again after, for example, 6 months.
4
If the oil level is decreased then replace the gearbox.
Oil spills discolors painted surfaces
Oil spills on painted surfaces of the robot can result in discoloration.
Note
After all repair and maintenance work involving oil, always wipe the robot clean
from all surplus oil.
Dos and don'ts!
This section specifies some special considerations when cleaning the robot.
Always!
•
Always use cleaning equipment as specified! Any other cleaning equipment
may shorten the life of the robot.
•
Always check that all protective covers are fitted to the robot before cleaning!

Performing a leak-down test
Note
Action
Finish the refitting procedure of the motor or gear in
question.
1
Remove the topmost oil plug on the gear and replace
it with the leak-down tester .
2
Regulators, which are included in the leak-down test,
may be required.
Correct value:
Use caution, apply compressed air and raise the
pressure with the knob until the correct value is
shown on the manometer.
CAUTION
The pressure must under no circumstance be higher
than 0.25 bar (20-25 kPa). Also during the time when
the pressure is raised.
3
0.2-0.25 bar (20-25 kPa)
Disconnect the compressed air supply.
4
If the compressed air is signific-
antly colder or warmer than the
gearbox to be tested, a slight
pressure increase or decrease
may occur. This is quite normal.
Wait for approximately 8-10 minutes and make sure
that no pressure loss occurs.
5
If any pressure drop occurred, then localize the leak
as described in step 7.
6
If no pressure drop occurred, then remove the leak-
down tester and refit the oil plug. The test is complete.
Spray any suspected leak areas with the leak detec-
tion spray. Bubbles indicate a leak.
7
When the leak has been localized, take the necessary
measures to correct the leak.

robot.

Equipment, etc.
Used to grease the bearings, if not

3HAB3537-1
Grease
Assembly of all bearings
Follow the following instructions while mounting a bearing on the robot.
Note
Action
To avoid contamination, let a new bearing remain in its wrapping
until it is time for fitting.
1
Ensure that the parts included in the bearing fitting are free from
burrs, grinding waste, and other contamination. Cast components
must be free of foundry sand.
2
Bearing rings, inner rings, and roller elements must not be subjec-
ted to direct impact. The roller elements must not be exposed to
any stresses during the assembly work.
3
Assembly of tapered bearings
Follow the preceding instructions for the assembly of the bearings when mounting
a tapered bearing on the robot.
In addition to those instructions, the following procedure must be carried out to
enable the roller elements to adjust to the correct position against the race flange.
Note
Action
Tension the bearing gradually until the recommended pre-tension is achieved.
Note
The roller elements must be rotated a specified number of turns before pre-
tensioning is carried out and also rotated during the pre-tensioning sequence.
1
Make sure the bearing is properly aligned as this will directly affect the durab-
ility of the bearing.
2
Greasing of bearings
The bearings must be greased after assembly according to the following
instructions:
•
The bearings must not be completely filled with grease. However, if space
is available beside the bearing fitting, the bearing may be totally filled with
grease when mounted, as excessive grease will be pressed out from the
bearing when the robot is started.

Assembly of tapered bearings
Follow the preceding instructions for the assembly of the bearings when mounting
a tapered bearing on the robot.
In addition to those instructions, the following procedure must be carried out to
enable the roller elements to adjust to the correct position against the race flange.
Note
Action
Tension the bearing gradually until the recommended pre-tension is achieved.
Note
The roller elements must be rotated a specified number of turns before pre-
tensioning is carried out and also rotated during the pre-tensioning sequence.
1
Make sure the bearing is properly aligned as this will directly affect the durab-
ility of the bearing.
2
Greasing of bearings
The bearings must be greased after assembly according to the following
instructions:
•
The bearings must not be completely filled with grease. However, if space
is available beside the bearing fitting, the bearing may be totally filled with
grease when mounted, as excessive grease will be pressed out from the
bearing when the robot is started.

4.2.2 Mounting instructions for bearings
•
During operation, the bearing should be filled to 70-80% of the available
volume.
•
Ensure that grease is handled and stored properly to avoid contamination.
Grease the different types of bearings as following description:
•
Grooved ball bearings must be filled with grease from both sides.
•
Tapered roller bearings and axial needle bearings must be greased in the
split condition.

Assembly of all bearings
Follow the following instructions while mounting a bearing on the robot.
Note
Action
To avoid contamination, let a new bearing remain in its wrapping
until it is time for fitting.
1
Ensure that the parts included in the bearing fitting are free from
burrs, grinding waste, and other contamination. Cast components
must be free of foundry sand.
2
Bearing rings, inner rings, and roller elements must not be subjec-
ted to direct impact. The roller elements must not be exposed to
any stresses during the assembly work.
3
Assembly of tapered bearings
Follow the preceding instructions for the assembly of the bearings when mounting
a tapered bearing on the robot.
In addition to those instructions, the following procedure must be carried out to
enable the roller elements to adjust to the correct position against the race flange.

Rotating seals
The procedure below describes how to fit rotating seals.
CAUTION
Please observe the following before commencing any assembly of seals:
•
Protect the sealing surfaces during transport and mounting.
•
Keep the seal in its original wrappings or protect it well before actual
mounting.
•
The fitting of seals and gears must be carried out on clean workbenches.
•
Use a protective sleeve for the sealing lip during mounting, when sliding
over threads, keyways, etc.
Note
Action
Check the seal to ensure that:
•
The seal is of the correct type (provided with cutting
edge).
•
There is no damage to the sealing edge (feel with a
fingernail).
1
Inspect the sealing surface before mounting. If scratches
or damage are found, the seal must be replaced since it
may result in future leakage.
2
Article number is specified
in Equipment on page193 .
Lubricate the seal with grease just before fitting. (Not too
early - there is a risk of dirt and foreign particles adhering
to the seal.)
3
Fill 2/3 of the space between the dust tongue and sealing
lip with grease. The rubber coated external diameter must
also be greased, unless otherwise specified.
Mount the seal correctly with a mounting tool.
4
Never hammer directly on the seal as this may result in
leakage.

occur.
Clean the surfaces properly in accordance with the recommendations of ABB.
2
Distribute the sealing compound evenly over the surface, preferably with a brush.
3
Tighten the screws evenly when fastening the flange joint.

O-rings
The following procedure describes how to fit o-rings.
Note
Action
Ensure that the correct o-ring size is used.

Check the o-ring for surface defects, burrs,
shape accuracy, and so on.
2
Defective o-rings may not be used.
Check the o-ring grooves.
3
The grooves must be geometrically correct and
should be free of pores and contamination.
