Joystick Teaching System for Industrial Robots Using Fuzzy Compliance Control

Industrial robots have been applied to several tasks, such as handling, assembling, painting, deburring and so on (Ferretti et al., 2000), (Her & Kazerooni, 1991), (Liu, 1995), (Takeuchi et al., 1993), so that they have been spread to various fields of manufacturing industries. However, as for the user interface of the robots, conventional teaching systems using a teaching pendant are only prov...

A distributed planning and control system for industrial robots

A practical distributed planning and control system for industrial robots is presented. The hierarchical concept consists of three independent levels. Each level is modularly implemented and supplies an application interface (API) to the next higher level. At the top level, we propose an automatic motion planner. The motion planner is based on a best-first search algorithm and needs no essentia...

Optimization of PID Controller with Supervisory Fuzzy Control for Industrial Robots

It is difficult to control the movement of the robot arm due to its nonlinear structure. PID controller is still in the world because of its simplicity in designing this controller as the main controller. The nonlinear control technique is very complicated, and this is not very interesting in the controller. While fuzzy control has a better performance, it incorporates a fuzzy control with ...

Offline Path Correction System for Industrial Robots

The paper describes the design of an offline path correction system for industrial robots using laser stripe sensors. Our approach offers high flexibility because of the systems ability to self-calibrate and a high speed measurement because of the usage of approximate positioning of the robot. The paper further reviews the advantages and disadvantages of online and offline path correction syste...
