5.4.2 Calibration tools for Axis Calibration
Calibration tool set
The calibration tools used for Axis Calibration are designed to meet requirements
for calibration performance, durability and safety in case of accidental damage.
The calibration tool will eventually break from fatigue after longer period of use
and then needs to be replaced. There is no risk for bad calibrations as long as the
calibration tool is in one piece.
WARNING
Calibrating the robot with Axis Calibration requires special calibration tools from
ABB. Using other pins in the calibration bushings may cause severe damage to
the robot and/or personnel.
Note Article number Equipment, etc.
Delivered as a set of calibration tools.
Required if Axis Calibration is the valid calib-
ration method for the robot.
i
The tool box also includes a unique calibra-
tion pin for IRB 1200 to be fitted to the tool
flange during calibration of axis 6.

Axis Calibration
i
The robot is calibrated by either manual calibration or Axis Calibration at ABB factory before delivery.
Always use the same calibration method as used at the factory.
Information about valid calibration method is found on the calibration label or in the calibration
menu on the FlexPendant.
If no data is found related to standard calibration, manual calibration is used as default.
Examining the calibration tool
Check prior to usage
Before using the calibration tool, make sure that the tube insert, the plastic
protection and the steel spring ring are present.
WARNING
If any part is missing or damaged, the tool must be replaced immediately.
