4.4 Features of TCP gauging
The robot checks the TCP at fixed intervals of time. Seam displacement due to torch misalign-
ments etc. can consequently be minimised.
Further advantages of regular TCP gauging are:
– reduction of costs in manufacturing,
– greater reproducibility,
– minimisation of time-consuming and expensive re-programming of components,
– monitoring of the robot, error message appears if the calibration of the robot is no longer cor-
rect or the TCP gauging has lost its original position.
