  • Open structure multiprocessor robot controller
    Terbuc, Martin ; Hace, Aleš ; Jezernik, Karel
    This paper presents an approach for building a multiprocessor robot controller. It is well known, that new concepts of the automatic control have to be tasted not only with the use of stimulation ... techniques, but also with experiments on the real mechanisms. Transfer from simulations to experiments is enabled by the use of the open structure of robot controller. For user, it is also possible to include algorithm in the existing structure, like the assembling of blocks in the simulation programs. Results can be followed by the real-time display of the desired system variables, which can also be savedfor the later processing. Since real-time operation is required, local decisions about the packet contents have to be made. Also communication connections-paths are destined in such a manner that the fastest possible transfer is enabled. Because of the complexity of the tasks multiprocessor control system with the optimal distribution of tasks is used. In recent years the number of applications using laser beam for cutting various materials, such as metals (in most cases iron), fabric and paper, is increasing. In our Institute a belt driven machine of that kind was built. PC and transputer based controller with open hardware and software architecture was implented. Complete laser cutting system represents succesfull industrial application of emerging tehnologies.
