    摘要: A workpiece is irradiated by a laser beam scanned in an oscillating track as the workpiece is advanced along a feed path in a hardening process. Sinusoidal variations in scan velocity are offset by decreasing the laser beam power level at phases in the scanning cycles corresponding to high and low scan displacement peaks, where the scan velocity is least. The beam power is increased near the scanning center line where the scan velocity is highest. The beam energy applied per unit of area is thus equalized over the scanning cycle. The workpiece temperature can be sampled at regular phases by a non-contact temperature sensor in the optical path, and used to control beam power versus phase in a subsequent scanning cycle. Alternatively or in addition, a sinusoidal beam power pattern can be stored and used to offset scan velocity variations as a function of phase.

The protective tube is configured to be laid through a cavity formed in a hollow forearm of the robot. The signal cable may be comprised of an image signal cable and a control signal cable, provided for a visual sensor. Alternatively, the signal cable may be comprised of a detection-data transmission signal cable of a strain gauge provided for a force sensor.

    摘要: In a numerically controlled method of moving an object to be controlled along a predetermined locus, controlling control axes, the locus is made approximate to a spatial polynomial, a polynomial is converted into a polynomial as time function, the polynomial converted as time function is distributed to each control axis, control command in each control axis is produced on the basis of the polynomial distributed to each axis as time function, and the object to be controlled is moved along the locus, controlling each control axis on the basis of the control command. The velocity, the acceleration and the jerk of the object to be controlled can be easily obtained concerning each control axis in advance by differentiating the polynomial expressed by time function. The object to be controlled is controlled so as to move along the locus expressed by the polynomial, feeding irregularity or position shift is reduced and curved face machining at high accuracy is possible.

    摘要: A linear motor has a stationary member shaped as a channel and a moving member therein, with a magnet and an armature producing force for displacing the moving member along the channel. A first air flow path for cooling is defined along the path of the moving member in the channel. The moving member can have channels allowing cooling air to flow through. The channel can be closed over by a cover band passing through a slit in the moving member and closed or lifted by rollers on the moving member. The channel can be supplied with forced air flow by a blower and/or an exhaust fan, and preferably includes a filter for excluding metallic particles from the first air flow path.

    摘要: An operation line tracking device for a robot for performing an operation with a tool mounted on the robot while tracking an operation line using a sensor wherein a detection failure of the sensor is restored by automatically changing or resetting a detecting condition of the sensor when the sensor fails in detecting the operation line. If a detection failure occurs for a cause of excessive or too small quantity of light impinged on light receiving elements of a laser sensor, a laser output intensity is automatically changed. If a detection failure occurs for a cause of basing of the quantity of the impinged light, an orientation of the laser sensor is automatically adjusted. If a detection failure occurs for a cause of biasing of position of the operation line in the visual field of the laser sensor, the position of the laser sensor is automatically adjusted. If a detection failure occurs for a cause of detection of an unexpected line, an algorithm for detecting the operation line is replaced with another one. Thus, the detecting condition is automatically changed or reset in accordance with the cause of the detection failure, and the tracking operation of the robot is automatically restarted.
