How to reduce robot force in manual mode?

Our calibration thorns made of steel have become stump (not hardened). We run the calibration at low speed but the robot pressure is sufficient to kill the tools. Two questions:

- Is there a parameter setting or a rapid instruction to reduce maximum robot pressure during manual operation mode?

- Supposed, the robot is stiff and it presses on the calibration thorn: Does it teach t real surface contact location or does it teach the the position inside the collision zone where it was to got to?

Regards and thanks,

  • What are you calibrating?  Does it require the robot to touch them or are you driving a teaching something, i.e. a TCP or work object?  Or are you expecting the robot to push against them to calculate a location as you would do with a measurewearL for a weld gun?  If it is something like MeasureWearL there is a touchforce variable to decrease the pressure the robot presses against the target with.  Also if you are just jogging, you can turn down the motion supervision.
