Abstract

This paper presents an approach to quantify the energy saving potential with regard to travel time of industrial robot motions. In order to minimize the influence of the exemplary considered trajectories and, thus, provide general results, the evaluation is done on a large set of automatically generated point-to-point motions on a KUKA KR 210 serial robot. For this purpose, an energy model specifically tailored to industrial robots is introduced, along with an algorithm for automatic generation of appropriate evaluation trajectories. It is shown that the power consumption model requires an accurate inverse dynamics and friction model, while simplified models of motors and invertes yield sufficient results.
