Brief description of calibration methods
Axis Calibration method
Axis Calibration is a standard calibration method for calibration of IRB 1090. It is
the recommended method in order to achieve proper performance.
The following routines are available for the Axis Calibration method:
The calibration equipment for Axis Calibration is delivered as a toolkit.
The actual instructions of how to perform the calibration procedure and what to
do at each step is given on the FlexPendant. You will be guided through the
calibration procedure, step by step.
Wrist Optimization method
Wrist Optimization is a method for improving reorientation accuracy for continuous
processes like welding and gluing and is a complement to the standard calibration
method.
The actual instructions of how to perform the wrist optimization procedure is given
on the FlexPendant.
CalibWare - Absolute Accuracy calibration
The CalibWare tool guides through the calibration process and calculates new
compensation parameters. This is further detailed in the Application
manual - CalibWare Field.
If a service operation is done to a robot with the option Absolute Accuracy, a new
absolute accuracy calibration is required in order to establish full performance.
For most cases after replacements that do not include taking apart the robot
structure, standard calibration is sufficient.
The Absolute Accuracy option varies according to the robot mounting position.
This is printed on the robot name plate for each robot. The robot must be in the
correct mounting position when it is recalibrated for absolute accuracy.
