Abstract
It is shown how nonlinear joint stiffness in industrial robots can be determined quickly and accurately through a combination of statistical linearization and optimized data acquisition configurations. The statistical linearization is carried out using the histogram of the measured motor torques. The result of this linearization is used in a criterion that is minimized to determine optimal configurations for data collection. The proposed approach is validated using data from both simulations and experiments with a medium-size industrial robot. In both cases, there is a significant improvement in accuracy compared to both using conventional linearization and collecting data in a larger but random set of configurations.
