Abstract

For securing and increasing the quality of various material processing technologies a flexible sensor data integration is indispensable. Hence, a powerful and configurable sensor-robot-system was designed and implemented, integrating sensor data into industrial robot controls within the interpolation or the position control clock rate. Different controllers were designed and the system responses of the control loops were simulated and optimized by an efficient control design tool. Experimental results on the achievable path accuracy are presented. Finally, some application for the developed sensor control loops are introduced.
