Increasing Speed

Robot Controller
1

Hello,

I’m trying to increase speed to get closer of my cycle time. I have changed (reduced) the definition of the TCP (weight) but I’m wondering if there is a better way of doing it. Any tips would probably help.

FYI, the application is a simple pick and place with a EAOT (25 kg) and yes, I have define (increase) some velocy constants (for instance… vHigh:=[7000,700,7000,700].

Thanks a lot for any your advice,

Patrick

You can use TuneServo function. Bud this is rather compicated and you should know what you really do. Read about function in your manual.

General tips are:

  • Use zones as big as you can
  • Linear or circular movements are often faster than MoveJ
  • In pick and/or in place position, use zones and trigg instead of fine points.
  • Better slower and continous than fast but with stops.
  • Is there any time in which the robot waits for something? This can be changed?
