Content
This is the name of the robot control function using a force sensor. It
consists of force sense control, force sense detection, and force sense log
functions.
This function uses real-time information from the force sense function to
control robot softness and the amount of force applied to workpieces.
This function detects force sensor information, performs interrupt
processing, and retains force sense data and robot position data when
interrupts occur.
This function obtains and displays force sensor and robot position
information.
This is a control method used to control robot force. Controls robot force
while offsetting position in order to obtain the specified reaction force. This
is used when pushing with constant force.
This is a robot control method used to control robot stiffness. Controls the
robot as though there is a spring on the robot hand flange surface. This
method is used for copying around workpieces and assembling flexible
objects.
The limited stiffness control can restrict the force of the robot.
This sensor detects force and moment.
This unit takes in sensor information obtained from the force sensor and
passes it to the robot controller.
