<p>Industrial robot control system in a system having a machine tool (MAC), a numerical control unit (NCU) controlling the machine tool, an industrial robot (RBT), and a robot control unit (RCU) controlling the robot. In this industrial robot control system, a plurality of robot programs are stored in a memory (DMR) within the robot control unit (RCU), a plurality of NC programs are stored in a memory (DMN) within the numerical control unit (NCU), the size and shape of the workpiece is detected by a workpiece discrimination unit (WKD) to select the robot program appropriate to the workpiece, and to deliver the number of the NC program appropriate to the robot program from the robot control unit (RCU) to the numerical control unit (NCU), thereby controlling the machine tool (MAC) in accordance with the NC program having that number, and the robot (RBT) in accordance with the robot program thus selected.</p> |
