Test Key Points
Rated Parameters
Voltage and frequency must meet standard requirements, such as withstand voltage test. Voltage fluctuations mainly affect the motor's power output and its own safety: too high can easily break down insulation, while too low can cause "step loss" due to insufficient torque; frequency accuracy is directly related to the motor's synchronous speed, and its deviation will ultimately be amplified as trajectory error of the robot through the transmission chain.
Torque Ripple
Torque ripple is one of the core indicators, describing the stability of the output torque. It must be strictly controlled within the standard range because when the robot performs tasks such as precision assembly, even small fluctuations can cause positioning inaccuracy.
Temperature Threshold
When the temperature rise is abnormal, especially exceeding the threshold of 75K, it is by no means accidental, but a clear signal of accumulated and intensified internal faults. Normal motor operation also has losses (copper loss, iron loss), but the temperature rise is controlled within the design range. An abnormal high temperature rise means the occurrence of abnormal, huge energy losses, such as winding short circuit, bearing wear, rotor defects, etc.
Insulation Resistance
Insulation resistance should not be lower than 1MΩ. If the motor's insulation resistance is too low, when a person touches the shell (especially a metal shell), current may form a loop through the human body, causing electric shock. 1MΩ is widely considered an empirical safety threshold that can effectively limit leakage current and prevent dangerous electric shock. Below this value, the risk of electric shock increases significantly.

Test Software
VectWorks Electrical Performance Test Software is a software developed by GreenTest Technology based on the GtestWorks automated testing platform. Its engine is based on dynamic test script execution. This basic architecture facilitates easy and direct configuration of test sequences without requiring specific knowledge of how to remotely control instruments. You only need to configure the items to be tested and the test levels, offering high flexibility.
The software provides users with standard-compliant test templates, enabling remote parameter setting, data acquisition, waveform editing, configuration import/export, report viewing, etc., achieving automation of complex tests.
