Popis: This paper presents a new approach to estimate the benefit of a energy storage for certain robots. This method can be used directly in the planning phase of production. First, a robot model is developed including the DC grid coupling of the individual drives. This model is validated by several measurements of the absorbed power, brake power and DC grid voltage in a real car body shop. In a next step, the model is used to estimate the potential of an energy storage system for robots in a specific production. The e stimation was successfully validated with and without energy storage. In the experimental evaluation an energy saving of 10 % was achieved.
