  1. Detect potential faults early

    CBM analyzes the motion cycle of each ABB robot to identify highly stressed units within a production line. Using over two decades of statistical data from thousands of ABB robots worldwide, robots are evaluated against a global benchmark to spot potential faults, whether in a single robot or across the entire fleet.

  2. Detailed performance analysis and recommendations

    An in-depth study of each robot provides:

    • Classification of robots based on duty factor

    • Robot overview and summary tables

    • Data analysis and ratings

    • Customized maintenance recommendations and conclusions

    This detailed report is supported by ABB technical experts to guide preventive maintenance tailored to each robot.

  3. Prioritize your maintenance plan

    With actionable insights, you can tailor and prioritize maintenance based on robot usage and criticality,ensuring the right level of service at the right time.

Technical data

Unlocking value: A customer-centric service solution

“No gearbox failures have been reported since the CBM service”, “The analysis helped us enhance the sustainability of our existing system and improve our preventive system service maintenance.”, “We reduced speed and acceleration and achieved a faster cycle time”, "After six months, we can observe a clear trend towards improved values in Condition-Based Maintenance“

Identify the most highly stressed robots in your factory and get expert advice

The analysis results are presented in a summary table with a graphical color scheme that clearly indicates the status of each axis and the overall health of the robot, as indicated by the calculated joint usage score. The customer is provided with an official report that includes the robot overview, summary table, data analysis, individual maintenance recommendations, conclusions, and system rating.
