Robot Repeatability:

  • It is the ability of the robot to reposition itself to a position to which it was previously commanded or trained.
  • Repeatability and accuracy are similar, however, they define slightly different performance concepts.
  • It is a statistical term that is widely used in Robotics which associates the accuracy of robots in action.
  • Robot Repeatability is a measure of the ability of the robot to position the tool-tip in the same place again and again.
