20100058850 | METHOD TO TEST A BRAKE OF A ROBOT - In a method to test a brake of a robot that has a number of axes, an actuator associated with one of the axes, a brake associated with this axis that is set up to at least reduce a movement of this axis, and a torque sensor associated with this axis, which determines the torque acting on this axis. The brake is activated, the torque acting on the axis is determined by the torque sensor given an activated brake, and the functional capability of the brake is assessed in a processor based on an evaluation of the torque determined by the torque sensor. | 03-11-2010 |

20140195051 | Configurable Security Monitoring For A Robot Assembly - A safety monitoring means for a robot assembly with at least one robot includes a configuration means for configuring a linking function arrangement with at least one first linking function including a fixed and predetermined number of monitoring functions of a monitoring function arrangement. The monitoring functions are logically linked to one another such that the first linking function has a reaction state whenever none of the monitoring functions indicates a not-violated state. The configuration means may further include at least one second linking function including a fixed and predetermined number of monitoring functions that are logically linked to one another such that the second linking function does not have a reaction state whenever all monitoring functions indicate a violated state. | 07-10-2014 |
20140379126 | Monitoring A Kinematically Redundant Robot - A method for monitoring a kinematically redundant robot includes detecting joint forces acting in the joints of the robot, determining an external work force between a robot-permanent reference point and an environment based on the detected joint forces, determining a further monitoring variable that is at least substantially independent of an external force acting on the robot-permanent reference point based on the detected joint forces, and monitoring the determined external work force and the determined further monitoring variable. | 12-25-2014 |
20150057799 | Method For Controlling A Robot - A method for controlling a robot includes monitoring the robot, and carrying out a fault reaction, selected from a number of specified fault reactions, on the basis of the monitoring of the robot, wherein the fault reaction is selected on the basis of a monitoring of an operational capability and/or an output variable of at least one motor of the robot. | 02-26-2015 |
