Operate the Real Arm · xArm 850 · Step 9 of 9
Operating Report
Use these headings for the short report you write after a supervised run. Where this page gives the arm's readings from one day, check them against what your own screens show, and write down yours.
Task Performed
- The approved production task is IntelliMake's laser engraver run1. The 850's part in it is to move each card from the staging table, S3, on to the engraver's conveyor, S423.
Write which existing program or recording you ran, and what it did.
Materials and Equipment
- The xArm 850 arm and its control box, with its emergency stop on the box45.
- Its suction tool, which uses a single suction aperture6.
- The workpiece: a business card7.
- A computer with the UFACTORY Studio desktop app, connected by Ethernet to the control box89.
Operating Parameters Observed
The 850's readings in Studio on 2026-10-22, for comparison with yours10:
| Parameter | Reading |
|---|---|
| Firmware and Studio | 2.8.2, after that day's update10 |
| State and mode, arm stopped | Stop, Position11 |
| Mounting | Floor11 |
| TCP preset | Vacuum Gripper: 0.61 kg, tool point 126 mm from the flange12 |
| Live Control speed slider | 12 %, read on Studio 2.6.0 before the update13 |
| Safety boundary and reduced mode | Boundary on but far outside the arm's reach; reduced mode off14 |
| Speed limits | TCP 1000 mm/s; joints 180 °/s14 |
| Collision detection | On, sensitivity 3; rebound and self-collision detection on15 |
| Controller inputs | None set to a safety function16 |
Add the readings from your own run: the state and mode while it ran, the speed you used, and anything that changed.
Results Obtained
Write whether the run produced the intended movement, how many cards you moved, and how the run ended.
Problems Encountered
Write each problem: what you saw, what you did first, its cause, and how the arm was recovered. Use the columns of the abnormal-conditions table. If you paused a program, write how you resumed it and what the arm did.
Lessons Learned
Write what you would do differently next time, and what surprised you.
Recommended Improvements to the Procedure
- Questions a run can answer: which of Live Control's two vacuum buttons, OPEN or CLOSE, grips13, and how a paused program resumes17.
Add any step of this procedure that was unclear, missing or wrong at the arm.
