Payload too large

Hi there! I’m using the IRB1520ID to grab objects. My tool was created from a Smart Component I found here. The thing is I always get this message: “Heavy payload caused static torque limit to be exceeded on joint rob1_4.” right at the beginning of the simulation. I changed the mass of the tool several times, even too 0.001 Kg, but I still get the same error. Any idea on how to correct that?

By the way, the robot start at home position and the object it has to grabb is not yet attach.. that make’s no sense to me to get the error

What is the value of your tooldata (i.e. the TCP)? Does it work if you use tool0?

Kind regards,

I checked the component and it creates a tool with a payload of 18 kg, which is far too much for the selected robot. You can change the payload in RAPID Editor or in the Paths&Target browser of RobotStudio. If you change it in the browser you need to “Synchronize to RAPID” to update the RAPID code.
