Robot Energy Consumption Cut By Up To 40 Percent

August 26, 2015 | Leave a Comment

Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology minimize the acceleration of industrial robots reducing energy consumption by up to 40 percent – while retaining the given production time. The Chalmers team developed a new optimization algorithm that optimizes the robot’s movements reducing acceleration and deceleration, as well as the time the robot is at a standstill […]
