Briefly Pausing the Robot to Allow Human Intervention
If an operating robot is touched by a person, it pauses, allowing the person to safely intervene and perform tasks. Once released, the robot resumes its operation.
Limiting Arm Output through Torque Command Input
Using the torque command input of the "Stream Motion" function, the force generated by the robot arm is limited within a safe operating range. As a result, even a light force applied by a person is sufficient to pause the robot.
Compliant Motion and Smooth Return to the Original Path
If a person applies further force, the robot compliantly yields and follows the applied motion. When released, the robot smoothly returns to its original programmed path.
