Abstract
A program evaluation device for evaluating an operation program for a robot. The operation program is a program that causes the robot to perform processing of a workpiece using a tool, and the robot has a function of correcting a position of the tool in response to an amount of wear of the tool. The program evaluation device includes an operation verification unit that verifies whether the robot will operate correctly in accordance with the operation program with each of a plurality of amounts of wear within a predetermined range.
Claims7
A program evaluation device for evaluating an operation program for a robot, the operation program being a program that causes the robot to perform processing of a workpiece using a tool, the program evaluation device comprising:
- a storage unit storing a model of the robot in a three-dimensional virtual space and a model of the workpiece in the three-dimensional virtual space;
- and
- a processor, wherein the processor is configured to conduct:
- a first simulation that causes the model of the robot to operate based on the operation program relative to the model of the workpiece in the three-dimensional virtual space;
- a correction of the operation program in accordance with an amount of wear of the tool;
- a second simulation that causes the model of the robot to operate based on corrected operation program by the correction relative to the model of the workpiece in the three-dimensional virtual space;
- and
- a verification that verifies whether the model of the robot operates without abnormal operation in the first simulation and the second simulation.
