Stopping Time/Distance

In the RB Series of collaborative robots, the time and distance between the robots stop and the distance are generated by the safety monitoring function.

The graph below shows the stop time and stop distance for stop category 1 for Joint 0 (Base axis), Joint 1 (Shoulder axis), and Joint 2 (Elbow axis).
The measurements were conducted by attaching the payload to each joint.

WARNING

  • Depending on the situation, the actual stop motion may differ from the results below.
  • Joint 0 is the result of horizontal movement, and Joint 1 and 2 are the result of vertical downward movement.
  • For the length of the arm, the maximum length is applied.
