Abstract

Industrial robots comprise substantial parts of machine tools and manipulators in production lines. Their present development stagnates in their control. Traditional approaches, e.g. NC (numerical control) systems combined with PID/PSD structures, provide control of the tool drives as separate units only, but not solve the control from view of the whole machine system. On the other hand, in control theory, there are a lot of approaches, in which the information on tool dynamics and kinematic relations can be involved. The main contribution of this paper is to introduce various utilization and modifications (not only control tasks) of one such approach – model-base predictive control. The control is being developed for modern industrial robots based on parallel configurations. The modifications of predictive algorithm are substantiated by real laboratory experiments. The paper concerns with basic control design and its possibilities to remove positional steady-state error. Quadraticaly-optimal trajectory planning is outlined in it.
