2.3.5. Loads
General
Any loads mounted on the robot must be defined correctly and carefully (with regard to the
position of center of gravity and inertia factor) in order to avoid jolting movements and
overloading the motors.
CAUTION!
Incorrect defined loads may result in operational stops or major damage in bearings.
References
Load diagrams, permitted extra loads (equipment) and their positions are specified in the
Product Specification. The loads must also be defined in the software as detailed in User's
Guide (RobotWare 4.0), or Operating manual (RobotWare 5.0).
Stop time and braking distances
Robot motor brake performance depends on any loads attached. For further information about
brake performance, please contact ABB.
