Abstract:
A robotic system includes: an arm configured to carry a substrate to a mounting base; a hand disposed at a tip portion of the arm, the hand being configured to hold the substrate when the substrate is carried; a detector disposed on the hand, the detector being configured to detect the substrate; and an acquirer configured to recognize heights of the detector when the substrate is detected at a first position and a second position by the detector as heights of the substrate at respective positions and acquire a mounted-state of the substrate mounted on the mounting base based on the height of the substrate at the first position and the height of the substrate at the second position.
Abstract:
A substrate positioning device includes: a supporting unit for supporting a substrate in place; a light emitting unit and a light receiving unit respectively arranged at major surface sides of the substrate to face each other; a light emission control unit configured to control a light emission quantity of the light emitting unit pursuant to a control value; and a detecting unit for detecting a light reception quantity received by the light receiving unit. The substrate positioning device further includes an adjusting unit for controlling the control value pursuant to the light reception quantity while the substrate is not supported by the supporting unit.
Abstract:
A robot simulator includes an image generator and a display controller. The image generator is configured to generate a three-dimensional robot image representing a movement to be taught to a robot. The display controller is configured to combine a two-dimensional image representing an environment of the robot with the three-dimensional robot image generated by the image generator so as to obtain a combined image, and configured to control a display to display the combined image.
Abstract:
A transfer system includes a substrate positioning device, robots having a first robot and a second robot; and robot control devices, the robot control devices including a first robot control device to which the first robot and the substrate positioning device are connected and a second robot control device to which the second robot is connected. The first robot control device includes an acquiring unit configured to acquire, from the substrate positioning device, at least an absolute deviation amount between the rotation center of the mounting table and a center position of the substrate positioned, and a transmitting unit configured to transmit correction information relying on the absolute deviation amount acquired by the acquiring unit, to the second robot control device to which the second robot is connected.
Abstract:
A robot system includes: a robotic hand configured to load and unload a workpiece into and from a cassette in which a plurality of workpieces are aligned in a first direction; a sensor configured to detect the workpiece; a transporter configured to change a relative position of the sensor with respect to the cassette in the first direction and in a second direction; and circuitry configured to: control the transporter to arrange the sensor at a first position; command the sensor to scan in the first direction, to acquire first mapping data; control the transporter to arrange the sensor at a second position by changing the relative position of the sensor in the second direction; command the sensor to scan in the first direction, to acquire second mapping data; and determine that one or more of the workpieces are inclined based on the first and second mapping data.
Abstract:
A teaching jig includes a body portion and at least three light emitting units installed on the body portion. In the teaching jig, all the light emitting units are positioned, when the body portion is located at a target position of the teaching jig with respect to a measurement member and is seen over the measurement member, in the vicinity of a peripheral edge of the measurement member and at only one of the inside and the outside of the peripheral edge of the measurement member.
