5.4. Calibration movement directions for all axes
Overview
When calibrating, the axis must consistently be run towards the calibration position in the
same direction, in order to avoid position errors caused by backlash in gears etc. Positive
directions are shown in the figure below.
This is normally handled by the robot calibration software.
Calibration movement directions, 4 axes
Note! The figure shows an IRB 260, but the positive direction is the same for all 4-axis robots
