Abstract
Electricity consumption is a big problem not only for the economy, but also for the environment. More and more electricity is used, so it is necessary to find a way to save it. This article focuses on the electrical energy consumption of an industrial robot by changing its working height. The goal is to find out at which height it is most suitable to work in order to achieve the lowest possible energy consumption. Research is realized on industrial robot ABB IRB 6700 using simulation tools such as ABB RobotStudio and Process Simulate, where different trajectory heights are simulated. The trajectories are dimensioned according to the size of the robot. Also, the trajectories are designed to maximize the use of the robot’s axis. This method makes it possible to reduce energy consumption even before the robot is physically located in the factory and its position cannot be changed.
