- Abstract
ISO 9283 is a significant guiding standard for assessing the performance characteristics of robots. The main objective of the present paper was to verify the repeatability of the Panasonic TM-2000 welding robot at a manufacturing company. The paper describes the workflow of the robot control program in the simulation software RoboDK, which created a complete welding station. The measurement, as well as the simulation, were possible thanks to designing the measuring device, the imaginary ISO cube, the measuring plane, the measuring points, and last but not least, the cycle that determined in which order the points were measured. The analytical part of the paper resulted in a direct measurement of the position repeatability of the welding robot. A total of five points were measured for the X-axis and five points for the Y-axis. Each point was recorded 30 times, with measurements taken in the positive direction of motion. The results were compared with the value given by the manufacturer, and the measured deviations were presented graphically.
