Energy saving possibilities in the industrial robot IRB 1600 control

The paper presents the approaches for electric energy saving possibilities and electricity consumption characteristics in the modern industrial robots together with practical examples concerning robot programming and positioning. The paper is based on measurements, made in the laboratory of Tallinn University of Technology with an industrial robot IRB 1600.
