摘要:
A control system for controlling an industrial robot and a method thereof. A control unit generates a control signal for controlling the motor. At least one drive unit controls the motor. The drive unit includes a switching unit adapted to convert DC current to alternating current to the motor in dependence on the control signal. A safety unit generates a stop signal for stopping the robot upon occurrence of a safety event. The drive unit disables the switching unit upon receiving the stop signal. The safety unit generates the stop signal with a time delay with respect to the safety event. The control unit generates the control signal in such a way that the motor is electrically braked during the time delay. The control system transfers the stop signal to the brake, which mechanically brakes the motor upon receiving the stop signal, and delays the stop signal to the drive unit so that the brake receives the stop signal before the drive unit to ensure that the mechanical brake is applied before the switching unit is disabled.

The invention relates to a method for commanding the brakes (F1, F2, F3) of the motors (M1, M2, M3) of a multi-axis robot (R1), comprising: a robot arm (B) comprising at least two degrees of freedom each associated with an electric motor (M1, M2, M3), a sensor (C1, C2, C3) for measuring movement information, and a brake (F1, F2, F3), an interfacing unit (4) of the brakes (F1-F3) able to control the supply of electricity to the brakes (F1-F3), a central processing unit (2), variable drives (V1, V2, V3) having a torque off function of the motors (M1-M3), a security system (4, 5), the method comprising the following successive steps: 6a) selecting a motor (M1-M3), 6b) activating an electric braking function using the selected motor (M1-M3), 6c) opening the brake (F1-F3), 6d) comparing the movement information delivered by the sensor (C1-C3) to a threshold, 6e) closing the brake (F1-F3) when the movement information exceeds the threshold.
摘要:
A method for controlling a robot that has a plurality of articulation axes, with at least one axis that includes a drive mechanism for moving the axis and a holding brake for limiting movement of the axis. The method includes closing the holding brake and at least one of opening the holding brake after the closing step based on an axial load, or opening the holding brake for a specified duration. In addition, or alternatively, closing of the holding brake may be delayed for a period of time. The holding brake may be closed in response to the detection of a monitoring-related condition of the robot.

A method of controlling a DC servomotor for driving a driven member coupled by a wire to an operation member of a valve, wherein, at the start of a control, the motor is driven first to rotate the operation shaft of the valve to a limit position after the motor stops, a driving current of the motor is gradually reduced to return slowly the driven member by a tension of the wire, and a position of the driven member when the driving current of the motor becomes zero is stored as a final stop position, thereafter, a rotational range of the driven member is limited to the range between these final stop positions when the position of the driven member is controlled to coincide with a target position.

A machine tool includes a spindle having a cutting tool for cutting a workpiece. For fault detection, a control unit of the machine tool detects a value representing a torque applied on the spindle while the spindle is stopped in a state the cutting tool is engaged with the workpiece. The control unit further compares the detected value (representing a torque) with a predetermined threshold thereby to determine that a fault has occurs. Since the detection of the value representing a torque is performed while the spindle is stopped, the detection is free from the effects of acceleration or deceleration of the spindle.

While a numerical controller is operating, an abnormality of a numerical control section is detected. In response to an abnormality detection signal, a motor deceleration stop control circuit of a servo section is actuated to perform speed control with a speed command “0”, thereby stopping a motor. If an actual speed of the motor becomes not higher than a preset speed, an off command signal for turning off a DO signal is delivered to a PMC section. In response to this off command signal, the PMC section turns off a brake control DO or all DO signals. Thus, a brake device that is attached to the motor is activated to brake the motor.

A robot control system is provided which controls a plurality of servomotors for moving a hand and articulated arms of a robot. The robot control system includes a plurality of position detectors, a motor control driver, and a serial communication path. The position detectors detect rotational positions of the servomotors and output the rotational positions in the form of serial data, respectively. The serial communication path is disposed between the motor control driver and the position detectors to transmit request signals provided by the motor control driver to the position detectors to request the position detectors to output the rotational positions.
