A robot controller capable of automatically preparing a job program for a workpiece configured of a plurality of job elements is disclosed. A plurality of teaching programs for teaching the job for each job element making up the workpiece are stored in advance. Each teaching program has registered therein attribute information including the item number (identification information) and the sequence of application of the teaching program to each workpiece. The robot controller retrieves teaching programs having registered therein, as attribute information, the same item number as the input item number of the workpiece and prepares a main program such that the retrieved teaching programs are called sequentially as subprograms in accordance with the application sequence specified by the attribute information. Further, commands for moving to the job starting position and the job end position are added before and after the main program thereby to complete the main program. Based on the main program thus prepared, the robot controller controls the robot operation.
A robot controller calling a teaching program related to a workpiece from a plurality of stored teaching programs and causing a robot to carry out a job in accordance with the called teaching program, said robot controller comprising:
