SRP Customer groups

Tracing 3D part with the

SRP tool provides easy

way to access difficult

angles

Teaching outside the paint

zone makes it possible to

teach a new parts without

stopping production

SRP works well with

small metal parts but

have limitation on

recording programs

with medium/big size

Fast and efficient

programming of panels

Time efficient solution

for small or large series

of parts

Painting flat panels Painting 3D parts Metal parts

SRP Applications

Painting:

Plastics

Small Automotive Sub supplier

Mobile phones & Electronics

Other plastic component

Sanitary and ceramics

Wood

Metal Fabrication

Small metal parts

Other Application:

Polishing and Sanding

Blowing

Washing / Cleaning

SRP

SRP consist of:

Motion tracking hardware,

source and processing unit

Teaching handle – connected

to the motion tracking unit

and to the PC application

PC with ABB RobView 5

and the SRP plugin for

Basic ShopFloor Editor

Main components with setup example

SRP Features and benefits

ABB Teach Handle

Motion tracking – full 6 degrees of

freedom with absolute accuracy with no

drifting (no error in tracking output over

time). No shadowing effect from a

human, plastic or wooden part. Large

metal part and power cables could have

an impact on the sensor signal

Trigger on/off with line guiding –

designed to feel like a conventional air

spray gun and trigger. Adding function

buttons for starting recording function

PC application

ABB RobView 5 gets the position data

from the motion tracking sensors and

trigger + function commands from the

teach handle

© ABB 2014

SRP Teach Handle

Buttons Trigger: To add trigger points, to simulate the spray-gun needle

Option A: To start and stop recording

Option B: For future use

LED: Recording: Lit red when system is in recording mode

SRP Where to teach a paint program

SRP enables users to

create the robot

program in a none

production environment

(outside the robot zone)

Teaching in prep zone

Remote teaching – with

SRP a designer of a

part can teach and

secure the robot

painting program

Checking robot program

Paint production does not

need to be stopped to

teach a new part.

Program can be checked;

reachability, accessibility,

cycle time, paint

coverage and more

Send program to the robot

Quick start

Launch SRP application

ABB RobView 5 is an open and

available software application provided

with each robot system from ABB.

First time the application is launched,

there will be a request for a license

number for SRP

Define work object

After the hardware is set up and

connected, define the work object from

the Set up menu (upper right corner of

the screen). It takes few minutes.

Quick start

Start teaching path & trigger

Start recording by pressing the A button, after the path is finished

recorded, press A again to stop. Both the PC application and the

teach handle will show recoding indicators

The application records program length in sec, amount of events and

if any bad quality points are detected

Verify program path

After recording, the application will present a pop up box that ask

“Save program to disk” or “save to robot”

Save to disk enables to verify and edit the program before

downloading to the robot. Saving directly to the robot will enable the

user to run the program directly (requires a robot controller to be

connected to the PC, Ethernet)

Controller, version and backwards compatibility

Controller platform

IRC5P, but also IRC5 or IRC5C

Backwards compatible

SRP generates generic ABB robot

programs from the RobView 5 SRP

application with PaintL or MoveL

instructions

If used in combination with ABB IRC5 or

IRC5C robot controllers, the MoveL

instruction need to be selected.

The trigger input need to be addressed

separately
