Increasing Speed

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?
