Abstract
A method of operating a robot manipulator including: ascertaining a wrench or joint torque vector based on a weight force and/or based on an inertial force of a mass of a load on an end effector of the robot manipulator; ascertaining a maximum permissible workspace and/or a maximum permissible kinematic variable, in each case based on the wrench or joint torque vector such that the wrench or joint torque vector does not exceed a predetermined metric within the maximum permissible workspace; and activating the robot manipulator to execute a predetermined task in consideration of the maximum permissible kinematic variable, such that the end effector or the load on the end effector remains within the maximum permissible workspace if, at beginning of execution of the task, the end effector or the load on the end effector is located within the maximum permissible workspace.
