StopMove Delay

bartvanessen

Hello There,
I am currently trying to Stop Robot moving, using an external PLC.
unfortunatelly, when i use the StopMove \Quick command it results in a 0.3 seconds delay between execution of the command line and stop of the robot. (tested with a new program)
Is there a way to stop the robot in a faster way?
kind regards
Bart

You could wire in the stop button on the PLC to your E-Stop on the robot controller and that would stop it pretty quick. Unfortunately doing it that way engages the brakes I believe, which would in the long run wear out the brakes faster...

Unfortunatelly, I need a temporary Stop of the Robot,
It should continue it's path automatically as soon as the "button" is released.

If you are using Fieldbus communication between the PLC and controller some of the delay could be communications delay?

You could try using digital I/O, and the system input quickstop (could also try it via the Fieldbus communications).

Use the system input Start to restart the program.
