Eccentric quantity of load on the shaft

The eccentric quantity of load (weight of the end effector and work piece) on the shaft can
be set by “eccentric quantity” parameter of Inertia command.

Enter a value into the [Eccentricity:] text box on the [Inertia] panel ([Tools]-[Robot
Manager]). (You may also execute the Inertia command from the [Command Window].)

Calculating the Moment of Inertia

Refer to the following examples of formulas to calculate the moment of inertia of load
(end effector with work piece).

The moment of inertia of the entire load is calculated by the sum of each part (a), (b), and
(c).
