Analysis of industrial robots on a test stand

Abstract

In the last few years, the number of manufacturers and users of industrial robots has greatly increased. When the often extensive technical descriptions of industrial robots are examined it is noticed that very different terminologies are used for the same technical data. More detailed examination of the technical data often reveals that the same terminology can mean different things. This is due, in part, to the newness of the device and the fact that it is not yet standardised and to the various measuring methods being used for the determination of the technical characteristics. Also terminologies from other machine types, for example NC‐machines, are not easily transferable.
