Calibration of industrial robots and positioners – KUKA robots

Create Date: 2024-8-30 12:03:23|Source: KUKA

Manipulator positioners are generally divided into compound positioners, single-axis positioners, double-axis positioners and three-axis positioners according to the number of components of the drive motor. Before and during the welding operation of the robotic arm, the positioner installs and locates the welded workpiece by sandwiching the things, and the different requirements for the workpiece determine the load capacity and the method of its movement of the robotic arm positioner. As an important part of the industrial robot welding production line and flexible welding processing unit, the position changer is used to rotate (translate) the welded workpiece to the best welding position. So how to set the calibration of the positioner of the robotic arm?

                               Calibration of industrial robots and positioners – KUKA robots

1. The calibration of the arc welding torch, first enter the main menu to select, put into operation - measurement - things, and then select the four-point method or six-point method for calibration, usually use the four-point method from the four directions close to the top level for calibration, the six-point method is the same as the four-point method, the need to calibrate six points and the posture requirements are higher.

2. The calibration of the workpiece coordinates of the welding robot is first selected by entering the main menu, putting into operation - measurement - east and west - base coordinates - 3 point method, and then the calibration of the workpiece coordinates of the robotic arm. The workpiece coordinates are calibrated by the three-point method, the origin is recorded first according to the workpiece style, and then a point is recorded in the X direction, a point is recorded in the Y direction, and finally the calibration is completed by clicking to save

3. The setting of the arc welding manipulator positioner is through the main menu: Process Package-Arc Welding Process Package-Positioner Parameter Setting) Enter the positioner setting page

The welding positioner of the industrial robot is to work back and forth by controlling the workbench, selecting different sensing angles to preset and cooperating with a foot-stepping switch, which can complete the welding orientation and welding speed required by the robotic arm, which is largely convenient for manual welding operations and the controllability of automatic welding operations in modern society.

4. The display of the coordinates of the industrial manipulator positioner is used to display the data after the calibration of the positioner is completed

5. It is used to show the relative posture of the welding torch and the weld of the robotic arm

6. Calibration of arc welding robot positioner

Calibration method:

a. Enter the robot positioner base coordinate number to be calibrated and set the deviation rate, click to take effect.

b. There are a total of 30 points in the calibration of the robotic arm positioner, the first 20 points are horizontal, there is no posture requirement, and the rear 10 points have no posture requirements for the tilt axis

c. Final industrial robot positioner base coordinate posture calibration: a total of 5 points, the first three 1 point horizontal, the last two tilt axes

d. Click Calibrate & Save

If a point has a large error in the calibration process, you can use the point number to move to the point to calibrate a single point from scratch.

The follow-up test is calculated by the position calibrated by the robot positioner and the welding gun, so that the welding gun moves with the robotic arm positioner.
