Position accuracy of industrial robots is one of the most concerned issues for manufacturers and users. The methods of measuring and analyzing the performance indexes of industrial robots accurately, simply and reliably are important for evaluating the performance of industrial robots. In this paper, a set of industrial robot performance test system is developed based on the Qt (graphics application development framework) with laser trackers as the measuring device. Then, the high effectiveness of the proposed performance test system of industrial robots is verified by testing industrial robots. For the data processing of the trajectory, the processing of redundant data is very important, which has a direct impact on the accuracy of the test results. Therefore, algorithms of filtering are need to improve the stability of test system. Experimental results reveal the high reliability of the performance test system of industrial robots by comparison with commercial system.
