The resolver values are changed If resolver values are changed, the robot must be recalibrated using the calibration methods supplied by ABB. Calibrate the robot carefully with standard calibration. The different methods are briefly described in the section Calibration methods on page 330 , and further detailed in separate calibration manuals.

Calibration Pendulum - standard method Calibration Pendulum is the standard method for calibration of all ABB robots (except IRB 6400R, IRB 640, IRB 1400H, and IRB 4400S) and is also the most accurate method for the standard type of calibration. It is the recommended method in order to achieve proper performance.

UNBRAKO screws UNBRAKO is a special type of screw recommended by ABB for certain screw joints. It features special surface treatment (Gleitmo as described below) and is extremely resistant to fatigue.
All components exceeding 22 kg (50 lbs) are highlighted in this way. To avoid injury, ABB recommends the use of a lifting accessory when handling components with a weight exceeding 22 kg. A wide range of lifting accessories and devices are available for each manipulator model.
