摘要:
A digital computer simultaneously controls the operation of plural machine tools and related apparatus, and coordinates the movement of parts and tools between storage areas and each of the machine tools. The parts which are to be worked on are either randomly or selectively supplied to any particular machine tool. Tools used in common by the machine tools are stored in a central storage area, and are selectively conveyed to a particular machine tool in accordance with the operations to be performed on a part.

A robot controller capable of automatically preparing a job program for a workpiece configured of a plurality of job elements is disclosed. A plurality of teaching programs for teaching the job for each job element making up the workpiece are stored in advance. Each teaching program has registered therein attribute information including the item number (identification information) and the sequence of application of the teaching program to each workpiece. The robot controller retrieves teaching programs having registered therein, as attribute information, the same item number as the input item number of the workpiece and prepares a main program such that the retrieved teaching programs are called sequentially as subprograms in accordance with the application sequence specified by the attribute information. Further, commands for moving to the job starting position and the job end position are added before and after the main program thereby to complete the main program. Based on the main program thus prepared, the robot controller controls the robot operation.

An apparatus ensures proper completion of a plurality of tasks at the plurality of positions, such as torquing of a plurality of bolts on a structure. The bolts are to be torqued to a plurality of different torques. The apparatus includes first indicia adjacent to each bolt. The indicia are characteristic of the torque to which each bolt is to be tightened. There is a reading device for reading the indicia for each bolt. At least one torque wrench is provided for tightening each bolt. The second indicia are operatively coupled to the wrench and to the reading device which indicates when the torque wrench properly tightens each bolt.

A program formation block extracts an operation factor which must be performed and the target work of the operation factor for each car type from a car-type classified operation registration file on the basis of a car-type number input from a car-type No. input block. The program formation block selects a manipulator capable of the extracted operation factor from an operation factor manipulator table, and extracts, from a manipulator individual program module, a program which the selected manipulator requires to perform the operation factor. Such processes are performed to all operation factors extracted from the car-type classified operation registration file to form a series of programs. Interlock information between manipulators is added to the series of programs to automatically generate teaching data.

Within both an electrical test apparatus for electrically testing a substrate, and a method for electrically testing the substrate while employing the electrical test apparatus, there is provided for an automatic selection of an electrical test program, absent operator intervention, once having identified a substrate. Due to the absence of operator intervention, the substrate is more accurately electrically tested.

A machine tool setting device and control system are provided. The machine tool setting device sets the machine tool tip at a predetermined distance above a work piece by detecting when the machine tool tip intercepts an optical beam. The control system allows for the drilling of multi-ply work pieces wherein the multi-plies comprise different thicknesses and hardnesses. The drill bit translational velocity and rotational velocity are continuously controlled for optimization depending upon the type of material and thickness as a hole is drilled through the work piece.
