ROBOT COLLABORATION CONTROL SYSTEM

摘要

A robot collaboration control system includes communication means 21 constituting a network by connecting a plurality of control devices Ca, Cb for controlling the operation of each of a plurality of robots Ra, Rb in a communicable manner, input means 37a, 37b provided on each of the control devices for inputting operation instructions for each robot, and timing generating means 69a, 69b. Each of the control devices is set to an independent function execution mode, a master function execution mode, or a slave function execution mode. Among the plurality of control devices, the control device Ca which is to perform master operation is set to the master function execution mode and the remaining control device Cb is set to the slave function execution mode. While correcting the minimum interrupt cycle Tsb of the slave side control device Cb, the control time tal1, tal2, tal3 of the master robot Ra by the master side control device is delayed by a predetermined time T so as to perform collaborating operation. Thus, it is possible to always maintain a plurality of robots in a synchronized state, thereby preventing a disagreement between operations of the robots.
