Full Description

THIS PAPER CONSIDERS THE EFFECT OF MEASUREMENT ERROR IN DETERMINING THE POSITIONAL REPEATABILITY OF AN INDUSTRIAL ROBOT. SIMULATION AND EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS DEMONSTRATE HOW THE CALCULATED VALUE OF REPEATABILITY VARIES AS A FUNCTION OF MEASUREMENT ERROR. IT HAS BEEN FOUND THAT LITTLE ATTENTION IS PAID TO SPECIFYING THE CHARACTERISTICS AND/OR TYPE OF MEASUREMENT SYSTEM THAT IS TO BE USED. IT IS SUGGESTED THAT THE CHOICE OF INSTRUMENTATION CAN HAVE A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON THE RESULTS OF REPEATABILITY TESTING AND SHOULD THEREFORE BE CONSIDERED IN SUFFICIENT DETAIL.
