2.2.7. Risk of tipping/stability - IRB 4450S
Risk of tipping
When the robot model IRB 4450S not is fastened to the foundation and standing still, the
robot is not stable in the whole working area. Moving the arms will displace the center of
gravity, which may cause the robot to tip over.
Do not change the robot position before securing it to the foundation!
Stability
The figure below shows the robot in its shipping position, which also is the most stable
