1.2.3.5. Safety risks during operational disturbances
The industrial robot is a flexible tool which can be used in many different industrial
applications.
All work must be carried out professionally and in accordance with the applicable
safety regulations.
Remedial action must only be carried out by qualified personnel who are familiar with
the entire installation as well as the special risks associated with its different parts.
Qualified personnel
Extraordinary risks
If the working process is interrupted, extra care must be taken due to risks other than those
associated with regular operation. Such an interruption may have to be rectified manually.
26
1 Safety
1.2.3.6. Safety risks during installation and service
The instructions in the Product Manual - Installation and Commissioning must always
be followed.
Emergency stop buttons must be positioned in easily accessible places so that the robot
can be stopped quickly.
Those in charge of operations must make sure that safety instructions are available for
the installation in question.
Those who install the robot must have the appropriate training for the robot system in
question and in any safety matters associated with it.
Safety zones, which have to be crossed before admittance, must be set up in front of
the robot's working space. Light beams or sensitive mats are suitable devices.
Turntables or the like should be used to keep the operator out of the robot's working
space.
The axes are affected by the force of gravity when the brakes are released. In addition
to the risk of being hit by moving robot parts, you run the risk of being crushed by the
parallel arm.
Energy, stored in the robot for the purpose of counterbalancing certain axes, may be
released if the robot, or parts thereof, is dismantled.
Never use the robot as a ladder, i.e. do not climb on the robot motors or other part
during service work. There is a serious risk of slipping because of the high temperature
of the motors or oil spills that can occur on the robot.
The supplier of the complete system must ensure that all circuits used in the safety
function are interlocked in accordance with the applicable standards for that function.
The supplier of the complete system must ensure that all circuits used in the
emergency stop function are interlocked in a safe manner, in accordance with the
applicable standards for the emergency stop function.

1.2.3.7. Risks associated with live electric parts
Although troubleshooting may, on occasion, have to be carried out while the power
supply is turned on, the robot must be turned off (by setting the mains switch to OFF)
when repairing faults, disconnecting electric leads and disconnecting or connecting
units.
The mains supply to the robot must be connected in such a way that it can be turned
off outside the robot's working space.
Units inside the controller, e.g. I/O modules, can be supplied with power from an
external source.
The power supply unit for the computer system (230 VAC)
The rectifier unit (400-480 VAC and 700 VDC. Note: Capacitors!)
The power supply unit for tools, or special power supply units for the machining
process
The external voltage connected to the control cabinet remains live even when the robot
is disconnected from the mains.
Additional connections
The user connections for tools or other parts of the installation (max. 230 VAC, see

1.2.4.6. Safe use of the Teach Pendant Unit
34
During programming and testing, the enabling device must be released as soon as
there is no need for the robot to move.
The programmer must always bring the Teach Pendant Unit with him/her, when
entering the robot's working space. This is to prevent anyone else taking control over
the robot without the programmer knowing.
1 Safety
1.2.4.7. Work inside the manipulators working range
The operating mode selector on the controller must be in the manual mode position to
render the enabling device operative and to block operation from a computer link or
remote control panel.
The robot's speed is limited to max. 250 mm/s when the operating mode selector is in
position < 250 mm/s. This should be the normal position when entering the working
space. The position 100% "full speed" may only be used by trained personnel who are
aware of the risks that this entails.
Pay attention to the rotating axes of the manipulator! Keep a distance to the axes in
order not to get entangled with hair or clothing. Also be aware of any danger that may
be caused by rotating tools or other devices mounted on the manipulator or inside the
cell.
Test the motor brake on each axis, according to section Brake testing on page 32.

2.3.10. Loads
General
Any loads mounted on the robot must be defined correctly and carefully (with regard to the
position of center of gravity and inertia factor) in order to avoid jolting movements and
overloading the motors. If this is not done correctly operational stops may result.
References
Load diagrams, permitted extra loads (equipment) and their positions are specified in the
Product Specification. The loads must also be defined in the software as detailed in Users
Guide (RobotWare 4.0), or Operators manual (RobotWare 5.0).
Stop time and braking distances
Robot motor brake performance depends on any loads attached. For further information about
brake performance, please contact ABB.

3.1. Introduction
Structure of this chapter
This chapter details all maintenance activities recommended for the robot and any external
units of the robot.
It is based on the maintenance schedule, located in the beginning of the chapter. The schedule
contains information about required maintenance activities including periodicity and refers to
procedures for the activities.
Each procedure contains all information required to perform the activity, e.g. required tools
and materials.
The procedures are gathered in different sections, divided according to the maintenance
activity.
Safety information
Before any service work is commenced, it is extremely important that all safety information
is observed!
There are general safety aspects that must be read through, as well as more specific safety
information that describe danger and safety risks when performing the procedures. Make sure
to read through the chapter Safety on page 15.

Calendar time: specified in months regardless of whether the robot system is run or not
Operating time: specified in operating hours. More frequent running of the robot
means more frequent maintenance activities.
SIS: specified by the robot's SIS (Service Information System). A typical value is
given for a typical work cycle, but the value will differ depending on how hard each
part is run. The SIS is further detailed in section Service Information System on page

The expected life can also be affected by assemblage of cabling other than standard options.
The given life is based on a test cycle that for every axis starts from the calibration position
to minimum angle to maximum angle and back to the calibration position. Deviations from
this cycle will result in differences in expected life!
2)
The given life for the balancing device is based on a test cycle that starts from the initial
position and goes to maximum extension, and back. Deviations from this cycle will result in
differences in expected life!
3)
The robot is dimensioned for a life of 8 years (350,000 cycles per year) in a normal spot
welding application. Depending on the actual application, the life of individual gearboxes
may vary greatly from this specification. The Service Information System (SIS), integrated
in the robot software, keeps track of the gearbox life in each individual case and will notify
the user when a service is due. The SIS is described in section Service Information System,
SIS.

Type of oil
The table below specifies the types of oil used in the gearboxes of each axis. For some of the
axes, there are two different types specified. Normally, the same oil should be refilled as the
one drained. Read the sectionWhich type of oil does the gearbox contain? on page 154 in
order to determine which type of oil is currently used in the gearbox.
As the Shell Tivela S 150 is not compatible with mineral oil, contamination with other types
of oils used in the gearboxes is not accepted. Equipment used in handling of Tivela S 150
must be carefully cleaned. In case of changing the type of oil to another, the gearbox must
therefor be thoroughly rinsed! Contact ABB for further instructions.
The Shell Global Product Code for Shell Tivela S 150 is specified within parentheses in table.

5.1. Introduction
General
This chapter includes general information about different calibration methods and details also
procedures that does not require specific calibration equipment.
When the robot system must be recalibrated, it is done according to documentation enclosed
with the calibration tools.
When to calibrate
The system must be calibrated if any of the below occurs.
The resolver values are changed
If resolver values are changed, the robot must be recalibrated using the calibration methods
supplied from ABB. Calibrate the robot carefully with standard calibration. The different
methods are briefly described in section Calibration methods on page 338, and further
detailed in separate Calibration manuals.
If the robot has Absolute Accuracy calibration, it is also recommended but not always needed
to be calibrated for new Absolute Accuracy.
The resolver values will change when parts affecting the calibration position are replaced on
the robot, e.g. motors, wrist or part of transmission.
Contents of the revolution counter memory are lost
If the contents of the revolution counter memory are lost, the counters must be updated as
detailed in section Updating revolution counters on page 342. This will occur when:
The revolution counters must also be updated after the robot and controller are connected at
the first installation.
The robot is rebuilt
If the robot has been rebuilt, e.g. after a crash or when the robot has been changed for other
reachability, it needs to be recalibrated for new resolver values.
If the robot has Absolute Accuracy calibration, it needs to be calibrated for new Absolute
Accuracy.
References
The article numbers for the Calibration manuals are listed in section Document references in
the Product manual (part 2 of 2), reference information. Article numbers for the calibration
tools are also listed in part 2 of the Product manual.

Calibration methods
Each calibration method is detailed in separate manuals. Below is a brief description of the
methods available.
Calibration Pendulum - standard method
Calibration Pendulum is the standard method for calibration of all ABB robots (except IRB
6400R, IRB 640, IRB 1400H and IRB 4400S) and is also the most accurate method for the
standard type of calibration. It is the recommended method in order to achieve proper
performance.
The calibration equipment for Calibration Pendulum is delivered as a complete toolkit,
including the manual Calibration Pendulum Instruction.
Levelmeter Calibration - alternative method
Levelmeter Calibration is referred to as the alternative method for calibration of ABB robots,
because of the less accurate values obtained during calibration. The method uses the same
principles as Calibration Pendulum but has not as good mechanical tolerances to the toolkit
parts as the standard method with Calibration Pendulum.
This method may, after calibration, require modifications in the robot program, and is
therefore not recommended.
The calibration equipment for Levelmeter Calibration is ordered as separate parts for each
robot and the manual Instruction for Levelmeter Calibration is enclosed with the Levelmeter
2000.
CalibWare - Absolute Accuracy calibration
In order to achieve a good positioning in the Cartesian coordinate system, Absolute Accuracy
is used as a TCP calibration. The tool CalibWare guides through the calibration process and
calculates new compensation parameters. This is detailed further in the manual xx.
If a service operation is done to a robot with Absolute Accuracy, a new absolute accuracy
calibration is required in order to establish full performance. For most cases after motor and
transmission replacements that do not include taking apart the robot structure, standard
calibration is sufficient. Standard calibration also supports wrist exchange.
