7.2 Bypass Mode
Material handling bypass mode is typically used for setup and teaching axis positions. Bypass mode
allows the technician to operate the MH with open access into the system via the front door.
?
NOTE This section is intended for maintenance personnel operating the FlexTRAK-2MB system
manually.
CAUTION! While operating the MH in bypass mode, exercise caution
around the moving components of the MH. Even though speeds
have been reduced, the potential danger of minor to moderate
injury to personnel can occur if proper procedures are not
followed.
Operating the FlexTRAK-2MB System in Bypass mode with the front door open disables safety
interlocks for the following hazards:
Table 7-1 Safety Hazards in Bypass Mode
Hazard Location Description
Pinch Point
Conveyor, Material
Handler System,
Process Chamber
A high-risk crushing hazard is created by the movement of the
conveyor.
Moving
Parts
Conveyor, Material
Handler System,
Process Chamber
A hand entanglement hazard is created by the movement of the
grippers. Keep hands away from this area unless the system
power is off.
Thermal
Hazard
Process Chamber
A high risk burn hazard is created by the process chamber.
Keep hands away from this area unless the system power is off
and heaters have cooled.
Radiation Process Chamber
Non-ionizing radiation hazard. RF generator produces RF
energy at levels that may cause burns.
Material handling bypass mode allows the MH to operate while the front door of the FlexTRAK-2MB
System is open. While in this mode, all five drives will operate at a fixed 25mm/sec. There is a key switch
that can only be accessed after opening the front door (Figure 4-1). Once the key is positioned to
BYPASS, the MH will override the front door interlock. At this point only the MH controls will function
at the reduced speeds. However, if the front door is then closed (interlock is made but still in bypass
mode) all FlexTRAK-2MB system controls will function. This mode is used during setup and teaching of
the system.
