Method for monitoring at least one industrial robot, industrial robot and system with several industrial robots

摘要

The invention relates to a method for monitoring at least one industrial robot (1), an industrial robot (1) and a system (31) having a plurality of industrial robots (1). The industrial robot (1) comprises a robot arm (2) and a control device (10). During normal operation of the industrial robot (1), the robot arm (2) is controlled by the control device (10) such that an end effector (13) attached to the robot arm (2) moves along a work task to be performed by the end effector (13) predetermined path moves. The current electrical energy consumption of the industrial robot (1) for the current work task is measured, and a stored comparative energy consumption value associated with the work task is retrieved. An indication of the measured current energy consumption and an indication of the comparative energy consumption value is displayed by means of a display device (12, 33), and / or a deviation between the measured current energy consumption and the retrieved comparison energy consumption value is determined, and an indication of the deviation by means of the display device (12, 33).
