Low velocity

Platform: Process Simulate

This sanity check identifies joints that would take more than 60 seconds to traverse their full range at maximum velocity. This indicates unrealistically slow joint speeds, which may be caused by calibration errors, incorrect robot specifications, or missing controller data. The user can investigate and fix the issue or proceed with the export.


Dialog shown in Resolver

Robot: {robotName}Joint: {jointName} (native), Index: {index} Max velocity too lowTraversal time exceeds 60 sec for full joint range Increase joint velocity limits

What you can do in this dialog

  • Can you continue export? Yes
  • Buttons in the popup: Continue, Cancel
  • What happens next: Continue proceeds with the export. Cancel stops this export run.
  • Next step: See impact if you continue

Impact if you continue

With maximum velocity this low, trajectories Resolver builds from that data will be impractically long.


How to fix it

  1. Load the correct machine data for that robot so joint velocity limits match the real controller. In Process Simulate, open the robot Setup dialog and use Load Machine Data.
