The robot accuracy level is usually comprehensively evaluated based on multiple factors such as the robot's movement mode, control mode, and working form.
The robot accuracy level classification may be different for different manufacturers and different application scenarios. But generally speaking, the robot accuracy level can be divided from the following aspects:
1. Position accuracy
Position accuracy is an important aspect of robot accuracy, which includes absolute position accuracy (accuracy) and posture repeatability accuracy.
Absolute position accuracy: refers to the deviation between the programmed robot position and the actual occupied robot position. This indicator reflects the robot's ability to accurately implement the command position.
Posture repeatability accuracy: refers to the degree of consistency of the actual occupied position after the robot executes the same instruction multiple times. It reflects the stability and repeatability of the robot's movement.
2. Trajectory accuracy
Trace accuracy is the accuracy of the robot's movement along the programmed trajectory during movement. It is divided into linear trajectory accuracy and circular motion trajectory accuracy.
Linear trajectory accuracy: refers to the deviation between the actual trajectory and the programmed trajectory of the robot during linear motion.
Circular motion trajectory accuracy: refers to the deviation between the actual trajectory and the programmed trajectory of the robot during circular motion.
3. Classification of precision levels (example)
Although the classification of precision levels may vary from manufacturer to manufacturer and from standard to standard, the following is an example of the classification of precision levels based on a traditional sliding arm robot:
Accuracy level | Accuracy error range | Applicable scenarios |
Class A | Within 0.1mm | Applicable to ultra-high precision assembly, processing and other fields |
Class B | Within 0.2~0.5mm | Applicable to high-precision assembly, processing and other fields |
Class C | Within 1mm | Applicable to some jobs with low automation, as well as assembly and handling jobs with high requirements |
Class D | Within 2mm | Applicable to jobs that require high efficiency and low precision, such as transmission and handling |
Class E | Within 5mm | Applicable to jobs with large loads and low precision requirements |
4. Factors affecting robot precision
Robot precision is affected by many factors, including but not limited to the following aspects:
Mechanical design: The robot's structural design, component precision, transmission method, etc. will affect its precision.
Control algorithm: Advanced control algorithms can improve the accuracy and stability of robot movement.
Sensor precision: High-precision position, speed and force sensors can provide real-time feedback on the robot's motion state, thereby improving precision.
Environmental factors: Environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, and vibration may also affect the robot's precision.
5. Methods to improve robot precision
In order to improve the robot's precision, the following aspects can be used:
* Use high-precision components and transmission methods.
* Optimize the robot's structural design to improve mechanical rigidity and stability.
* Use advanced control algorithms and sensor technology.
* Regularly calibrate and maintain the robot.
* Maintain the stability of the robot's working environment.
In summary, the robot accuracy level is a comprehensive indicator that needs to be selected and evaluated according to specific application scenarios and needs.
At the same time, the accuracy and performance of the robot can be further improved by continuously optimizing factors such as mechanical design, control algorithms and sensor technology.
