Abstract
This numerical control system comprises: a numerical control device 5 that generates a high-level command signal including a robot command signal for a robot 3 according to a numerical control program; and a robot control device 6 that generates a robot control signal for controlling the operation of the robot 3 on the basis of the high-level command signal and inputs the robot control signal to the robot 3. The robot control device 6 includes a control unit 60 that generates the robot control signal by selectively executing one among a dynamic executable file generated on the basis of a dynamic executable file creation command signal and the robot command signal and a static executable file selected on the basis of a static executable file start command signal.
Claims7
A numerical control system comprising:
- a numerical control device configured to generate a high-level command signal including a robot command signal for a robot in accordance with a numerical control program;
- and
- a robot control device capable of performing communication with the numerical control device and configured to generate a robot control signal for controlling operation of the robot on the basis of the high-level command signal and input the robot control signal to the robot,
- wherein the robot control device comprises a control unit configured to generate the robot control signal by selectively executing one of a first executable file generated on the basis of the high-level command signal and a second executable file selected on the basis of the high-level command signal.
A robot control method for controlling a robot by a numerical control device configured to generate a high-level command signal including a robot command signal for the robot in accordance with a numerical control program and a robot control device capable of performing communication with the numerical control device and configured to generate a robot control signal for controlling operation of the robot on the basis of the high-level command signal and input the robot control signal to the robot, the robot control method comprising:
- a step of inputting the high-level command signal generated at the numerical control device to the robot control device;
- a step of generating a first executable file on the basis of the high-level command signal at the robot control device;
- a step of selecting a second executable file on the basis of the high-level command signal at the robot control device;
- and
- a step of generating a robot control signal for controlling the operation of the robot by selectively executing one of the first executable file and the second executable file at the robot control device and inputting the robot control signal to the robot.
