Abstract:
After a forward end of a workpiece is inserted into a through-hole and fitting is started, a follow operation of moving the workpiece to follow the shape of the through-hole is performed during the movement of the workpiece in a fitting direction. At this time, the workpiece is fitted into the through-hole while a control point of a robot is changed in a direction opposite to the fitting direction according to the amount of movement of the workpiece in the fitting direction.
Abstract:
A robot system includes a first cell and a second cell. The first cell includes a first robot, a first controller, and a first casing. The first robot performs work on a to-be-worked material. The first controller controls the first robot. The first casing accommodates the first robot and the first controller. The second cell includes a second robot, a second controller, and a second casing. The second robot performs work on a to-be-worked material. The second controller controls the second robot. The second casing accommodates the second robot and the second controller. When the first casing and the second casing are connected to each other, the first controller and the second controller respectively control the first robot and the second robot to work in a common operation area, where a first movable area and a second movable area overlap.
Abstract:
A motion teaching apparatus includes a teaching motion detection device, a demonstration tool, and circuitry. A robot includes a leading end to move in a first coordinate system. A teaching motion detection device detects a position of the demonstration tool in a second coordinate system. The circuitry derives a relationship between the first and second coordinate system based on a position of the demonstration tool in the first coordinate system at at least one spot and based on the position of the demonstration tool in the second coordinate system at the at least one spot; obtains a transition of the position of the demonstration tool during the demonstration using the demonstration tool; and generates a motion command to control motion of the leading end of the robot based on the transition and the coordinate system relationship information.
Abstract:
A robot system includes a plurality of robots, a plurality of cells, a detection device, and a changer device. Each of the plurality of robots is configured to operate based on an operation command. The plurality of cells respectively accommodate the plurality of robots and are connectable to each other. The detection device is configured to detect that the plurality of cells are connected to each other. When the detection device detects that the plurality of cells are connected to each other, the changer device is configured to change at least one operation command among operation commands for the plurality of robots respectively accommodated in the connected cells.
Abstract:
In a method for adjusting parameters of impedance control, an overshoot amount allowable value is set as an allowable maximum value of an overshoot amount of a time response of a force feedback from a force sensor provided for an end effector of a robot manipulator, and a setting time allowable value is set as an allowable maximum value of a setting time of the time response of the force feedback. A viscosity parameter with which the setting time is shortest is calculated while fixing the inertia parameter. An overshoot amount adjustment value and a setting time adjustment value which are obtained from a result of the calculating of the viscosity parameter are compared with the overshoot amount allowable value and the setting time allowable value, respectively, to determine whether a repeating process is finished or continued.
Abstract:
A robot teaching system according to an embodiment includes a robot, a sensor, a screen generator, an adjuster, and a job generator. The sensor measures measured values relating to operations of the robot. The screen generator generates a teaching operation screen that includes guidance information intended for the teacher. The adjuster adjusts parameters for generating a job based on specified values relating to the operations of the robot and input in the teaching operation screen, and the measured values of the sensor associated with the specified values, the parameters defining an operation command including corrections of the operations of the robot. The job generator generates the job in which the parameters adjusted by the adjuster are incorporated.
Abstract:
A robot system includes circuitry. The circuitry may be configured to acquire teaching position data including a plurality of teaching positions arranged in time series based on the demonstration data of the operator. The circuitry may be further configured to generate thinned position data obtained by removing at least one of the teaching positions from the teaching position data. The circuitry may be further configured to generate a position command based on the thinned position data. The circuitry may be further configured to operate the work robot based on the position command.
Abstract:
A robot system includes a plurality of robots, a control device, a common work table, and a calibration device. The control device is configured to control the plurality of robots. On the common work table, the plurality of robots are configured to work. Based on a position of a first robot having a calibrated coordinate relative to a position of a second robot among the plurality of robots, the calibration device is configured to calibrate a coordinate of the second robot.
