The LBR iiwa. One robot, three operating modes.

In the operating mode "position controller", the LBR iiwa acts conventionally and moves to the destination point with programmed speed. In "gravity compensation" mode it proves its worth as a work assistant. It compensates for the weight of its load so precisely that the load can be moved by applications of a minimal external force. In "compliance controller" mode the compliance of the LBR iiwa can be configured translatory and rotatory as well individually for every axis. Like this, the behaviour of the robot can be perfectly fitted to the particular task. Additionally, a defined force can be added and superimpose a movement.
