Method and system for appraising the wear of axes of a robot arm

摘要

A method determines the wear of axes of a robot arm of an industrial robot. A torque profile of at least one axis taken during at least one working cycle of the industrial robot is used as a basis for an analysis. The torque profile is analyzed for portions of the torque profile that exceed a previously fixed torque band, and current axial wear is determined by assessing the frequency and/or the curve profile of the portions of the torque profile. A system is provided for determining the wear.
