Note

This document provides reference performance test data for the reBot Arm B601-DM under normal and extreme working conditions.

Warning

Version Notice: This test is based on the reBot Arm B601-DM equipped with Damiao V4 motors. Performance differs for V3 and earlier versions. Data is for reference only; actual performance should be verified through real tests.

📋 Table of Contents

⚡ Extreme Working Performance Test

Test Conditions

Dynamic Motion Test:

  • Single motion duration: 5 s
  • Motion mode: Reciprocating motion
  • Test arm extension range: 5%~70% / 5%~100% rated reach

Static Holding Test:

  • Test posture: Static load holding
  • Test arm extension: 70% / 100% rated reach

Test Results

👉 Key Conclusion: The mechanical structure is sufficiently strong. The test was terminated due to motor #2 overheating protection. Recommended working load ≤ 1.5 kg, recommended working reach < 70%, and active cooling is advised.

1. Dynamic Motion Test

Arm Range Load Duration Termination Reason
5%–70% reciprocating 1.5 kg > 2 h Motor #2 reached 90°C, manually stopped
5%–70% reciprocating 2.5 kg 40 min Overheat protection triggered
5%–100% reciprocating 1.5 kg 45 min Overheat protection triggered

2. Static Holding Test

Position Load (kg) Max Duration Termination Reason
70% extension hold 1.5 18 min Overheat protection
100% extension hold 1.5 3 min Overheat protection

📝 Conclusions and Recommendations

Usage Recommendations

  1. Recommended Working Conditions

    • Load: < 1.5 kg
    • Working radius: < 70% reach (450 mm)
    • Speed: < 70% max speed
    • Ambient temperature: 15 °C ~ 35 °C

  2. Cooling Recommendations

    • Add active cooling under long-term high load
    • After 2 hours of continuous operation, rest for 10~15 minutes
    • Avoid direct sunlight and enclosed environments

🙋 FAQ

Q1: Will performance degrade in high-temperature environments?

Yes. When ambient temperature exceeds 35 °C or motor temperature exceeds 75 °C, it is recommended to reduce load and speed to ensure accuracy and lifespan.

Q2: Is this data applicable to all versions?

This test is based on the Damiao V4 motor version. Performance differs for V3 and earlier versions.
