© ABB AB, Corporate Research - 2 Situation: tools available to maintenance based on periodical inspection, no information of its real condition The project: assist robot maintenance and diagnosis with a condition monitoring system. The task: develop methods for friction change detection in robot systems for condition monitoring. Challenges: Define everything from experiment to the final detection method Deal with the several restrictions that appear in industrial robot applications Implement the method and demonstrate its validity Project definitions The Task
