Stop Category
Stop Category | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Stop Category 1 | The stop distance and stop time of Joint 1 (Base) and Joint 2 (Shoulder) are measured at 33%, 66% and 100% of the maximum speed, stretch level and load, respectively. The stop distance and stop time of Joint 3 (elbow) is measured at 33%, 66% and 100% of maximum speed and load. The stretch level during Joint 3 measurement is locked at maximum because of the lower arm length and completely flat wrist. |
| 2 | Stop Category 0 | The stop distance and stop time of Joint 1 (Base), Joint 2 (Shoulder) and Joint 3 (Elbow) are measured at maximum speed, stretch level and load. The axes of Joint 2 and Joint 3 are parallel to each other, so an impact caused by forced stop on one part may cause a slip on the other side. The angle deviation is also measured. |
