3.2.2 Maintenance schedule
Scheduled and non-predictable maintenance
The robot must be maintained regularly to ensure proper function. The maintenance
activities and intervals are specified in the table below.
Non-predictable situations also give rise to inspections of the robot. Any damages
must be attended to immediately!
Life of each component
The inspection intervals do not specify the life of each component.

"Regularly" implies that the activity is to be performed regularly, but the actual interval may not be
specified by the robot manufacturer. The interval depends on the operation cycle of the robot, its
working environment and movement pattern. Generally, the more contaminated environment, the
shorter intervals. The more demanding movement pattern (sharper bending cable harness), the
shorter intervals.

Plastic and padding parts are a safety feature of the robot, that limit impact during collisions. To
ensure a maintained safety level of the robot, regular inspections of these parts are necessary.
