1.1 Structure

1.1.1 Introduction

General
The IRB 8700 serie is ABB Robotics 8:th generation of heavy payload robot, high
performance industrial robots. With focus on high production capacity, compact
design, simple service and low maintenance cost. The IRB 8700 is a general
purpose robot targeting market segment as for example Automotive (BIW), Foundry,
Mining and Metal fabrication.

Software product range

We have added a range of software products - all falling under the umbrella
designation of Active Safety - to protect not only personnel in the unlikely event
of an accident, but also robot tools, peripheral equipment and the robot itself.

Process options
There are a large number of process options for Material Handling/SpotWelding
integrated in the robot.

Operating system
The robot is equipped with the IRC5 controller and robot control software,
RobotWare. RobotWare supports every aspect of the robot system, such as motion
control, development and execution of application programs, communication etc.
See Product specification - Controller IRC5.

Safety
Safety standards valid for complete robot, manipulator and controller.

Additional functionality
For additional functionality, the robot can be equipped with optional software for
application support - communication features - network communication - and
advanced functions such as multitasking, sensor control etc. For a complete
description on optional software, see the Product specification - Controller software
IRC5.

Protection type Foundry Plus 2

Robots with the option Foundry Plus 2 are designed for harsh environments where
the robot is exposed to sprays of coolants, lubricants and metal spits that are
typical for die casting applications or other similar applications.
Typical applications are spraying insertion and part extraction of die-casting
machines, handling in sand casting and gravity casting, etc. (Please refer to Foundry
Prime robots for washing applications or other similar applications). Special care
must be taken in regard to operational and maintenance requirements for

applications in foundry are as well as in other applications areas. Please contact

ABB Robotics Sales organization if in doubt regarding specific application feasibility
for the Foundry Plus 2 protected robot.
The robot is painted with two-component epoxy on top of a primer for corrosion
protection. To further improve the corrosion protection additional rust preventive
are applied to exposed and crucial areas, e.g. has the tool flange a special
preventive coating. Although, continuous splashing of water or other similar rust
formation fluids may cause rust attach on the robots unpainted areas, joints, or
other unprotected surfaces. Under these circumstances it is recommended to add
rust inhibitor to the fluid or take other measures to prevent potential rust formation
on the mentioned.
The entire robot is IP67 compliant according to IEC 60529 - from base to wrist,
which means that the electrical compartments are sealed against water and solid
contaminants. Among other things all sensitive parts are better protected than the
standard offer.
Selected Foundry Plus 2 features:
• Improved sealing to prevent penetration into cavities to secure IP67
• Additional protection of cabling and electronics
• Special covers that protect cavities
• Well-proven connectors
• Nickel coated tool flange
• Rust preventives on screws, washers and unpainted/machined surfaces
• Extended service and maintenance program
The Foundry Plus 2 robot can be cleaned with appropriate washing equipment
according to the robot product manual. Appropriate cleaning and maintenance is
required to maintain the protection, for example can rust preventive be washed off
with wrong cleaning method.

Available robot versions

The option Foundry Plus 2 might not be available for all robot versions.
See Specification of variants and options on page 115 for robot versions and other
options not selectable together with Foundry Plus 2.

1.4.1 Calibration methods

Overview
This section specifies the different types of calibration and the calibration methods
that are supplied by ABB.
More information is available in the product manual.

Types of calibration

Type of calibration Description Calibration method

Standard calibration The calibrated robot is positioned at calibration Axis Calibration
position.
Standard calibration data is found on the SMB
(serial measurement board) or EIB in the robot.
For robots with RobotWare 5.04 or older, the
calibration data is delivered in a file, calib.cfg,
supplied with the robot at delivery. The file
identifies the correct resolver/motor position
corresponding to the robot home position.
Absolute accuracy Based on standard calibration, and besides CalibWare
calibration (option- positioning the robot at synchronization posi-
al) tion, the Absolute accuracy calibration also
compensates for:
• Mechanical tolerances in the robot
structure
• Deflection due to load
Absolute accuracy calibration focuses on pos-
itioning accuracy in the Cartesian coordinate
system for the robot.
Absolute accuracy calibration data is found
on the SMB (serial measurement board) in the
robot.
For robots with RobotWare 5.05 or older, the
absolute accuracy calibration data is delivered
in a file, absacc.cfg, supplied with the robot at
delivery. The file replaces the calib.cfg file and
identifies motor positions as well as absolute
accuracy compensation parameters.
A robot calibrated with Absolute accuracy has
a sticker next to the identification plate of the
robot.
To regain 100% Absolute accuracy perform-
ance, the robot must be recalibrated for abso-
lute accuracy after repair or maintenance that
affects the mechanical structure.

Brief description of calibration methods

Axis Calibration method
Axis Calibration is a standard calibration method for calibration of IRB 8700 and
is the most accurate method for the standard calibration. It is the recommended
method in order to achieve proper performance.
The following routines are available for the Axis Calibration method:
• Fine calibration
• Update revolution counters
• Reference calibration
The calibration equipment for Axis Calibration is delivered as a toolkit.
The actual instructions of how to perform the calibration procedure and what to
do at each step is given on the FlexPendant. You will be guided through the
calibration procedure, step by step.

CalibWare - Absolute Accuracy calibration

The CalibWare tool guides through the calibration process and calculates new
compensation parameters. This is further detailed in the Application
manual - CalibWare Field.
If a service operation is done to a robot with the option Absolute Accuracy, a new
absolute accuracy calibration is required in order to establish full performance.
For most cases after replacements that do not include taking apart the robot
structure, standard calibration is sufficient.

1.4.3 Absolute Accuracy calibration

1.4.3 Absolute Accuracy calibration

Purpose
Absolute Accuracy is a calibration concept that improves TCP accuracy. The
difference between an ideal robot and a real robot can be several millimeters,
resulting from mechanical tolerances and deflection in the robot structure. Absolute
Accuracy compensates for these differences.
Here are some examples of when this accuracy is important:
• Exchangeability of robots
• Offline programming with non or minimum touch-up
• Online programming with accurate movement and reorientation of tool
• Accurate cell alignment for MultiMove coordinated motion
• Programming with accurate offset movement in relation to eg. vision system
or offset programming
• Re-use of programs between applications
The option Absolute Accuracy is integrated in the controller algorithms and does
not need external equipment or calculation.

Note

The performance data is applicable to the corresponding RobotWare version of

the individual robot.

xx1500000893

What is included
Every Absolute Accuracy robot is delivered with:
• compensation parameters saved on the robot’s serial measurement board
• a birth certificate representing the Absolute Accuracy measurement protocol
for the calibration and verification sequence.
A robot with Absolute Accuracy calibration is marked on the manipulator.

 1 Description
1.4.3 Absolute Accuracy calibration
Continued

Absolute Accuracy supports both floor mounted and inverted installations. The
compensation parameters differ depending on if the robot is floor mounted or
inverted.

When is Absolute Accuracy being used

Absolute Accuracy works on a robot target in Cartesian coordinates, not on the
individual joints. Therefore, joint based movements (e.g. MoveAbsJ) will not be
affected.
If the robot is inverted, the Absolute Accuracy calibration must be performed when
the robot is inverted.

Absolute Accuracy active

Absolute Accuracy will be active in the following cases:
• Any motion function based on robtargets (e.g. MoveL) and ModPos on
robtargets
• Reorientation jogging
• Linear jogging
• Tool definition (4, 5, 6 point tool definition, room fixed TCP, stationary tool)
• Work object definition

Absolute Accuracy not active

The following are examples of when Absolute Accuracy is not active:
• Any motion function based on a jointtarget (MoveAbsJ)
• Independent joint
• Joint based jogging
• Additional axes
• Track motion

Note

In a robot system with, for example, an additional axis or track motion, the
Absolute Accuracy is active for the manipulator but not for the additional axis or
track motion.

RAPID instructions
There are no RAPID instructions included in this option.

MultiMove
If the main robot in a MultiMove system has the Absolute Accuracy option, it opens
up Absolute Accuracy capability for all the robots in the system. However, each
robot needs to be calibrated individually.

Note

Note that this is the only RobotWare option that is relevant for an additional robot.

1.5.1 Introduction

1.5 Load diagrams

1.5.1 Introduction

WARNING

It is very important to always define correct actual load data and correct payload
of the robot. Incorrect definitions of load data can result in overloading of the
robot.
If incorrect load data and/or loads are outside load diagram is used the following
parts can be damaged due to overload:
• motors
• gearboxes
• mechanical structure

WARNING

In the robot system the service routine LoadIdentify is available, which allows
the user to make an automatic definition of the tool and load, to determine correct
load parameters.
See Operating manual - IRC5 with FlexPendant, for detailed information.

WARNING

Robots running with incorrect load data and/or with loads outside diagram, will
not be covered by robot warranty.

General
The load diagrams include a nominal payload inertia, J0 of 100 kgm 2 , and an extra
load of 50 kg at the upper arm housing.
At different moment of inertia the load diagram will be changed. For robots that
are allowed tilted, wall or inverted mounted, the load diagrams as given are valid
and thus it is also possible to use RobotLoad within those tilt and axis limits.

Control of load case by "RobotLoad"

To easily control a specific load case, use the calculation program ABB RobotLoad.
Contact your local ABB organization for more information.
The result from RobotLoad is only valid within the maximum loads and tilt angles.
There is no warning if the maximum permitted armload is exceeded. For over load
cases and special applications, contact ABB for further analysis.

1.7 Maintenance and troubleshooting

General
The robot requires only minimum maintenance during operation. It has been
designed to make it as easy to service as possible:
• Maintenance-free AC motors are used.
• Oil is used for the gearboxes.
• The cabling is routed for longevity, and in the unlikely event of a failure, its
modular design makes it easy to change.

Maintenance
The maintenance intervals depend on the use of the robot. The required
maintenance activities also depend on the selected options. For detailed information
on maintenance procedures, see the maintenance section in Product manual - IRB
8700.

2.1.2 Product range

DressPack solutions for different users needs

The different robot types can be equipped with the well integrated cable and hose
packages in the SpotPack or DressPack options. The DressPack is designed in
close conjunction with the development of the manipulator and is therefore well
synchronized with the robot.
As there is a big span between different users need of flexibility, depending of the
complexity of the operation/wrist movements, there are two major levels of dress
pack solutions available, see Figure below.

xx1300000285

Integrated
This type of dress pack is intended for a production where there are many complex
wrist movements and the need for flexibility in changing products is high.
Available options are 798-3 and 780-4 for material handling/spot welding, the LeanID
concept.

External
This type of dress pack is recommended where there are less complexity in wrist
movements. This normally occurs when there are not many different products
running in the production cell. This package requires more individual adjustment
to optimize towards robot program at set up.
Available options are 798-3 and 780-3 for material handling.

General
When using DressPack options on the upper arm the robot movements will be
limited.
• Might restrict working range, see Robot motion on page 49.

Note

For more detail information please contact Serop Product support/SEROP/ABB.

E-mail address: [email protected]

Restrictions for LeanID, option 780-4

Limitation for axis 5 and 6 depends on how the dress pack is assembled at the tool
and how adjustment has been done.

2.1.4 Impact on DressPack lifetime

2.1.4 Impact on DressPack lifetime

General
There are some robot movements/positions that shall be avoided in the robot
production program. This will improve the lifetime significantly of external upper
arm DressPack and wear parts e.g. protection hose, hose reinforcement and
protective sleeves.
• The axis 5 movement is not allowed to press the DressPack against the robot
upper arm.
• Combined rotation of the wrist axes must be limited so that the DressPack
is not wrapped hard against the upper arm.
For more detailed information and recommended set-up adjustments, see Product
manual - IRB 8700.

Weld power circuit

The electrical circuits of the Spot Welding cabinet consists of weld power circuit
and control circuits to control the welding. The welding power for the welding gun
is fed through a circuit breaker and inverter (for MFDC welding) and further out to
the welding power cable. The cabinet is prepared for power feeding from the floor
or from top. The welding power cable (outgoing feeding) is connected, via cable
gland, directly to terminals inside the Spot Welding cabinet.
The circuit breaker has a built in thermal release that could be adjusted for customer
specific needs to protect welding equipment and to get selectivity in the power
circuit. The thermal release is set at 100 A at delivery. The maximum level should
not exceed 100 A.

Control Circuits
Power feeding 240/115 V AC and 24V DC for the control circuits is fed from the
robot controller cabinet. Also, the safety circuits in the robot controller cabinet are
used to interlock the welding timer.
A welding timer (Bosch), integrated with the air cooled inverted, controls the welding
current. The welding timer includes control program that gives possibility to program
different weld sequences. The programming is normally done on a programming
device or a PC that is connected directly to the welding timer. The interface between
the robot system and the welding timer is handled via a field bus interface (ProfiNet).
Examples of signals are weld start, weld ready, weld programs choice and error
handling.
Also, cross connections, of interface signals and interlocking between the robot
system (I/O-boards), the water and air unit, signals to DressPack or stationary gun,
are done within the Spot Welding cabinet.
Programming device for the welding timer is not included in the delivery.
If the option 744-1 is chosen there will follow a door interlock with the Spot Welding
cabinet.

2.6 Water and air unit

2.6.1 Introduction

General
The Water and Air unit contains components for water and air distribution and
control within the SpotPack. The water and air unit is controlled from the robot
controller via the process software. Wiring is made via the Spot Welding cabinet.
The capacity and functionality depends on the choice of different option
combinations, see water and air unit options under this chapter.
The unit is only used for the spot welding application

The water and air unit

The Water and Air unit has the following main features (see figure below):
• Adjustable, high speed water flow sensors.
• Adjustable digital pressure switch for air.
• Air filter with auto draining.
• Possibility to balance water flow for complete package and for individual
circuits.
• Preparation for additional options and preparation for easy exchange of
complete unit or separate circuits.
• Equipped with extra (plugged) air outlets.

xx1700001596

The standard water and air unit consists of four main assemblies.
• Water in circuit

• Water return circuit

• Air supply circuit
• Split box
Cables and hoses required for Water and Air unit are defined and described under
each option for water and air unit.

Water in circuit
The function of the water in circuit is to open / close the cooling water supply to
the Spot welding gun (see figure below). An electrical 2 port solenoid valve is used.
The valve is controlled by a digital signal from the robot control system.
The circuit begins from left to right with a lead in hole in the mounting plate, a G
½" thread is used for the connection of the factory water supply system, electrical
2 port solenoid valve and ends with a Parker Pushlock adapter. (Suitable for a
Parker Pushlock DIN 20 078 A, we recommend a Parker Pushlock 39C82-15-8BK
fitting). From this point the water is led to the gun/robot base.

xx0900000749

Water return circuit

The water return circuit monitors the flow of the returning cooling water from the
Spot welding gun (see figure below). The flow switch detects if the water flow is
too low in the cooling water circuit.
The flow switch gives a digital signal to the robot control system, which
automatically shuts off the electrical shut off valve in the water in circuit if the flow
is too low.
The system and the supply of cooling water are then automatically stopped to
minimize risk of damage to the system.
The water return circuit is delivered with a pre-set flow limit, set to 8 liters per
minute at 0.2 MPa water pressure.

The water return circuit begins from right with a Parker Pushlock adapter (suitable
for a Parker Pushlock DIN 20 078 A, we recommend a Parker Pushlock
39C82-15-8BK fitting).
It is also equipped with a flow control valve; the flow control can adjust the water
flow to the desired flow level. The flow rate can be monitored by the scale on the
flow control valve. The scale can be rotated so that easy reading can be performed.
This will serve as a rough function check in the flow range between 1 to 8 liters
per minute.
The flow control valve is when delivered adjusted for maximum flow.
The circuit ends with a check-valve that will stop any reversing water flow and ends
with an internal G ½" thread. From this point the water is led to the factory water
system.

xx0900000750

A second water return, option 793-1, is also available with the same specification
as above.

Air supply circuit

The air supply circuit provides the function package with filtered air (see figure
below).
The air supply circuit begins with a internal G ½" thread, manually operated shut
off valve with residual pressure release though a silencer, air filter with nominal
filtration of 5 µm with a metal protection of the bowl, a digital pressure switch and
a cross interface containing plugged air outlet ports (internal G 3/8" thread).
There is a digital pressure switch to monitor the air pressure and to give a signal
to the control system if the pressure becomes too low.
The pressure switch is delivered with pre-set pressure limit, set to 0.6 MPa.

Split box/Connection box

With the split box, the 24VDC supply and signals are connected and distributed to
the different units on the water and air unit, see figure below. The design makes
disconnection of separate items for service and repair on the water and air unit
very easy. The split box has a protection class IP67, which means it is well protected
against dust and water leakage.
