What causes SRVO-076?

Welding tip genuinely stuck to the workpiece (spot welding cells). Anything on the SRVO-050 Collision Detect cause list - payload data, external force, brake drag, mechanics. Note: unlike SRVO-050, the tip-stick threshold canNOT be adjusted from the DISTURB screen.

How do I fix SRVO-076?

Inspect the gun tip and part - free the stick and address the weld schedule if tips keep sticking. Otherwise work the SRVO-050 remedy list: verify payload settings, check for binding, warm up after cold idle, inspect brakes and mechanics on a repeat-offender axis.

SRVO-076: Tip Stick Detection

The servo software detected an abnormal load at the very start of motion - classically a welded spot-gun tip stuck to the part, hence the name.

What it means

The servo software detected an abnormal load at the very start of motion - classically a welded spot-gun tip stuck to the part, hence the name. Same detection math as Collision Detect, aimed at the moment the robot first pulls away.
