Rapid - Monitoring Variables - Torque, Temperature - Smb voltage

Hello Guys,

Exist some easy way to see and monitoring the torque of a motor, or the temperature of a motor, or the SMB voltage, from the ABB Teach pendant?

There is no individual temperature monitoring for ABB robot motors that I know of. Motor overtemperature is usually monitored by PTC sensors in each motor with all motors wired in series. Increased temperature in any motor will increase the resistance. If resistance increases too much, it will trigger an overtemp. It is up to the user to find the 'Hot' motor.

Interesting feature about your IRB6700 (and IRB4600) is it does not have PTC sensors.

smallkuka,

On ABB robots there is normally a PTC circuit that monitors the motor temperature. What does the hardware section of your error log display?

Can you describe the symptoms of what is happening with your robot?

Thanks
