<p>A stitch machining method by an industrial robot capable of performing a teaching operation easily and the stitch machining accurately. Instead of teaching switchover points p1, P2,... for application and non-application of sealant in sealing as shown in FIG. 5a, a distance n1 of a machining section (where sealant is applied) and a distance n2 of a non-machining section are set to a robot controller as shown in FIG. 5b. The robot controller monitors a travel distance and switches from machining to non-machining and vice versa each time the robot travels the distance n1 and the distance n2, respectively, to thereby effect the stitch machining. As shown in FIGS. 5c and 5g, it is possible to ensure that a start and an end points of each block are positioned in the machining sections n1. Further, as shown in FIG. 5d, the stitch machining can be performed continuously for a plurality of blocks. As shown in FIG. 5f, the stitch machining can be performed in each block with a set number of cycles of machining and non-machining. <IMAGE></p> |
