FANUC R-J3iB RO Wiring

  • I'm a newbie in this world so excuse me if i seem stupid.

    We were running a robotic deburring cell in our foundry that has a Fanuc R-2000iA 210F controlled by an R-J3iB controller. The robot is supposed to pickup a part form a tray using a pneumatic gripper actuated by 24V solenoid valves. Whenever I am supposed to pickup a part in the tray the robot should activate the solenoid closing the gripper. I suppose ROs should be used to do this but I can't find out how/where to wire the solenoids to the controller. Could someone help me to solve this problem?

    Any help is extremely useful!

  • On that vintage, they use sinking outputs, so the logic is backwards. Remember, they are limited to 200mA per output.




    Tested here and it seems to be a similar wiring here, someone replaced the 025-024 connector (discontinued by Fujikura) with another one.
    If it is not too much to ask, is the RO setup as a sink? I expected it to deliver 24V whenver it was "ON".
