2.6.10. Loads
General
Any loads mounted on the robot must be defined correctly and carefully (with regard to the
position of center of gravity and mass moments of inertia) in order to avoid jolting
movements and overloading motors, gears and structure.
CAUTION!
Incorrectly defined loads may result in operational stops or major damage to the robot.
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 Operating
manual IRC5 with FlexPendant.
Stop time and braking distances
Robot motor brake performance depends on any loads attached. For information about brake
performance, see Product Specification for the robot.
