3 General description
3.1 The SmartShift Base
The SmartShift Base is capable of accurate and exact fixation of a robot to operate between
various workstations locations. The benefit is to fast, easy and accurate move the same robot
in different workstations where exact zero positioning secured each time. The SmartShift
Base consists of following two main units:
A Robot Base Master (RBM) and a Base Footplate (BF).
The Robot Base Master (RBM) can be mounted on all the types of the Universal Robots or
similar equipment. Base Footplate (BF) applies in a number needed for different
workstations. Standard flanges are in stock. Any flange variation depending on special
design can de requested. Se configurator on SmartShift-Robotics webpage.

4 Safety instructions
4.1 General safety
Keep hands and tools away from all SmartShift components when the program is running.
Follow this manual carefully also regarding maintenance and recommended weight. Always have
security data sheet for recommended lubrication available.
If the SmartShift base is damaged, then stop using immediately and contact Buind for replacement
parts. Buind is not responsible for damage to people and property caused by using damaged
components.
5 Mounting / use
Mount Robot Base Master (RBM) directly onto the Universal Robot arm or on similar equipment.
Mount the Base Footplate at the workstation by securing the bolts for safely. The application robot
recommended handling weight is max. 10 kg. The owner is fully responsible for mounting the
SmartShift clutch securely.
5.1 Setup guide
Erect the Base Footplate (BF) on the workstation and secure it safely by usage of suitable bolts and
corresponding nuts.
Erect the Robot Base Master on the robotic footplate and secure it safely by usage of suitable bolts
and nuts.
Now the two corresponding parts slides together by manual lifting the robot arm in line with the
Base Footplate.
After safely sliding the two parts together then turn the locking ring, 180 degrees and lock the ring
position with the fixation screw.

6 Maintenance
6.1 General
Make sure to keep SmartShift Base in a clean environment. If chips or other big particles comes
between the Robot Base Master (RBM) and the Base Footplate (BF) the accurate zeroing of the
robot is jeopardized and the lifetime of the SmartShift Base can thus be shortened.
6.2 Lubrication
Once every second week, put a few drops of silicon-based lubricant (silicone spray) on each
surface to keep the components sliding easily against each other, and a few drops on the locking
ring keep it sliding easily. Recommended silicone spray is WD-40 (300014) silicone oil, or
equivalent silicone-based lubricant.
