Abstract
Evaluation of functional characteristics of industrial robots is one aspect of their development. If one examines the many robotic applications, it is found that in most cases the performance characteristics involve aspects of positioning and orientation. Parameter analyzed in this paper refers precisely to this type of performance. In the robotics field, there are different methods and techniques in order to determine the performance characteristics of the industrial robots. In this paper the authors used a method for measuring and evaluating multi-directional pose accuracy variation performance for a welding robot, through 3D triangulation with two digital theodolite. For this purpose it uses a calibrated cube, mounted on the robot end—effector. The method allows the determination of the performances in concordance with the ISO 9283 recommendations and is validated of experimentally researches.
