The main functions of the industrial robot controller

The controller mainly solves the forward kinematics and inverse kinematics of the robot to help the robot complete the trajectory planning. The controller of the industrial robot is composed of controller hardware and controller software, of which the software part of the controller is equivalent to the "heart" of the robot. Although there is a certain gap between the manufacturing of robots in China and the level of trajectory, China's controller products have matured and are the smallest components in robot products and foreign products.

In recent years, the development of China's domestic industrial robots has become faster and faster, which is a very good opportunity for the manufacture of domestic industrial robots, especially in the field of motion control. The more axes of industrial robots, the higher the requirements for the controller, the more the number of servo motors, and the age of the servo motors required by high-precision industrial robots is also a lot.

As one of the core components of industrial robots, the controller is the brain of industrial robots, so it plays a decisive role in the performance of robots. The industrial robot controller mainly controls the movement position, attitude and trajectory of the robot in the working space, the operation sequence and the time of action. For different types of robots, such as legged walking robots and articulated industrial robots, the comprehensive method of the control system is quite different, and the design scheme of the controller is also different.

The controller belongs to the core components of the upstream production of industrial robots, and other core components include reducers and servo systems. Core components account for 72% of the cost of industrial robots, of which control systems account for 12%.

The industrial robot controller consists of several parts

The controller of the robot is equivalent to the human brain, and the controller of the industrial robot mainly includes two parts: the first is the control cabinet, which contains a plurality of PLC control modules for controlling the movement of the robot's six or N-axis. The second is the teach pendant, which is a connector for man-machine control, which can be used to program and send control commands to the control cabinet to command the robot movement.

Regarding the issue of industrial robot controllers, this article focuses on the main functions of industrial robot controllers, as well as its components. It can be seen that the industrial robot controller is the equipment that controls the work of the robot, the controller is the core component of the industrial robot, and the brain of the industrial robot plays a decisive role in the performance of the robot.
