Abstract:
This paper describes flexible cell control using subprograms made in SCORBASE software. Subprograms represent the operations for each device in the cell. The goal is to move the robot arm to the desired positions for manipulating the workpieces and machine tending. In the SCORBASE software, the positions of the robots are saved, after the positions are saved they are called in the program for cell control, and in between called positions the subprograms for cell device operations are called. One example can be a robot moving towards the machine, subprogram for opening the door of the machine is called, then robot moving inside of the machine workspace, subprogram for opening chuck device is called, robot places the part in the machine, chuck is closed, robot moves out of the machine workspace, machine door closes and the cycle for manufacturing starts. Before each operation status of both the robot and machine is checked to avoid disturbing the process. Each machine in the cell is connected to an I/O controller which sends signals to the machine to operate, subprograms for machine operations consist of variables that control each machine and each operation.
