A Robot Performance Evaluation System(RPES) with the laser tracker Leica LTD 500 was developed according to the ISO 9283 robot performance criteria. The developed system is set up a test robot to continuously move the prescribed cyclic trajectories without a human intervention and the laser tracker to simultaneously measure the robot's movement. And then, the system automatically extracts the required data from the tremendous measured data, and computes the various performance criteria which represents the present state of the test robot's performance. This paper explains how ISO 9283 robot performance criteria was used for the developed system, and suggests a automatic data extraction algorithm from the mass of measured data. And also, a user-friendly Robot Performance Evaluation System(RPES) Software was developed with Visual Basic satisfying the need of Hyundai Motor Company. The developed system was implemented on NACHI 8608 AM 11 robot. The resulted output shows the effectiveness of the developed system.

An OHT(Over Head Transportation) vehicle is an example of the industrial monorail vehicle, and it is used in the automobile, semiconductor, LCD manufacturing industries. OHT vehicle is moved by main wheels and guide rollers. The major function of the main wheel is to support and drive the OHT vehicle. The roles of the guide roller is the inhibition of derailment and steering of the OHT vehicle. Since the required vehicle velocity becomes faster and the required load capacity is increased, the durability characteristics of the wheel and roller, which was made of urethane, need to be increased. So it is necessary to estimate the fatigue life cycle of the wheel and roller. In this study, OHT dynamic model was developed by using the multi body dynamic analysis program ADAMS. Wheel and roller are modeled by the 3-D surface contact module. Especially, motor cycle tire mechanics is used in the wheel contact model. The OHT dynamic model can analyze the dynamic characteristic of the OHT vehicle with various driving conditions. And the result was verified by a vehicle traveling test. As a result of this study, the developed model is expected to predict wheel dynamic load time history and makes a contribution to design of a new monorail vehicle.
