Major advances that improve control in the process industry have been made over the last ten years in the basic PID technology of modern distributed control systems. This paper addresses the impact that international standards have on control implementation and the tools utilized in industry for monitoring and commissioning PID control. Examples are used to illustrate how new technologies, such...

Industrial robots are usually programmed to follow desired trajectories, and are very good at position-controlled tasks. New applications, however, often require physical contact between the robot and its environment, and then the position control accuracy is generally not sufficient. Force control is a suitable alternative. The environment is often stiff, and then it is crucial to design appro...

The reliability and robustness of image-based visual servoing systems is still unsolved by the moment. In order to address this issue, a redundant and cooperative 2D visual servoing system based on the information provided by two cameras in eye-in-hand/eye-to-hand configurations is proposed. Its control law has been defined to assure that the whole system is stable if each subsystem is stable a...

This paper aims to present the critical issues and methodologies to improve robotic machining performance with flexile industrial robots. Design/methodology/approach – A complete solution using active force control is introduced to address various issues during the robotic machining process. Programming complex couture parts without a CAD model is made easy by using force control functions such...

Al~traet--The industrial sterilization of canned foods is a process in which there usually occurs a degradation of the nutrients and a deterioration of the qualitative properties due to the temperature to which the food is overexposed in order to assure sterilization. In this work we face the problem using optimal control methods. Linear constraints on the control and nonlinear ones on the stat...
