Abstract
A lifetime estimation device for a robot including a linear-motion mechanism including a guide member and at least one slider moving along the guide member includes: a load calculation unit that calculates, at predetermined time intervals, a load acting on each slider on a basis of a program for operating the robot and geometric parameters of the robot and a load mounted on the robot; a travel-distance calculation unit that calculates travel distances of the slider at the time intervals; a lifetime calculation unit that calculates a lifetime of the linear-motion mechanism on a basis of the loads calculated by the load calculation unit and the travel distances calculated by the travel-distance calculation unit; and a display unit that displays the calculated lifetime.
