    Abstract: A monitoring method for a robot. The actual internal loads are measured with a sensor at a reference point of the robot and are compared with the expected internal loads. The expected internal loads are calculated using the movement of the robot and a dynamic model. It is possible to estimate which external forces act on the robot by comparing the actual and expected internal loads. The signal characteristics of different signal components in the signal of the estimated external forces are used to differentiate between said signal components.
