Abstract

The present process of controlling an industrial robot includes steps consisting of calculating, in the modules implemented by the central unit, a time-dependent composite setpoint defining articular forces and velocities, according to a target trajectory and to an operating mode; calculating, in modules implemented by the central unit, a behavior matrix which describes a desired behavior of the robot arm, defining directions along which the calculated composite setpoint is to be applied; calculating, in a module implemented by the in auxiliary unit, an articular force setpoint for controlling the axis controller module; and calculating, in the axis controller module implemented by the auxiliary unit, the control setpoints for the power units according to the articular force setpoint.
