I'd confirm that nothing else got damaged in the first crash. Loose gripper jaws, a gripper open sensor got moved, a loose screw on the part fixturing or whatever transports the part into the machine.
Thanks for input however not the issue, axis 1 and 2 or both are off position a great deal when this occurs. Still running at 70% with no more issues, this of course has limited production by 20% so will still need to figure out the issue.
Started experiencing issues today with Epson G10-851SR-UL Robot, randomly the pick position will be off enough to cause crash when axis 3 (Z) travels down to pick up part. At any speed greater than 70% this happens more frequently, at 70% or lower it will allow line to run for longer periods before issues occurs again. Robot has been running at 90% speed for 2 years without this issue up until now, axis 1 or 2, or possibly both seem to be not stopping in the correct positions before axis 3 travels down to pick up part. Epson service tech suspects brake on axis 3 which isn't making sense as this is Z, appears that axis 3 is not positioned correctly (too far left or right) over the part before axis 3 travels down to pick up part. MM tech informed group that this started happening previous night after a crash of double stacked part. Would be beneficial to have some experienced input on this subject/issue.
Thanks
Thanks for the clarification Fabian
Automotive mfg facility utilizing Kuka Robots in previous years, recently we have some new Epson Gantry Robots (G3, G8, G10 models) that would be nice if we could edit specific points in a job while in auto. Previous robot experiences call this feature Dynamic Editing or PAM, is this possible with Epson Robots???? Any information would be very beneficial, Thanks
