Embodiment

[0032] Using the device of the present invention to carry out calibration virtual reality simulation on the industrial robot IRB1600, two PSDs are used in the test, and the specific implementation steps are as follows:

[0033] The first step is to place the laser positioning device (8) based on multiple PSDs in the reachable workspace of the industrial robot, combining figure 1 and figure 2 , Virtual reality establishes industrial robot kinematics mathematical model, robot end connection device and laser beam mathematical model, PSD mathematical model, random error model, etc., and randomly generates robot rod parameter errors;

Abstract

The invention discloses an industrial robot kinematics parameter rapid low-cost calibration device and a method thereof. The calibration device comprises two or more PSDs (Position Sensitive Devices), a signal treatment circuit, a signal collection card, a chargeable battery, a wireless digital communication transmission and reception card and an industrial control computer. Two PSDs with given position relationship are used as feedback devices, kinematics parameters of a constrained optimization objective function which can calibrate an industrial robot are established by respectively projecting leaser beams of different postures at the central points of the surfaces of two PSDs for multiple times, wherein the kinematics parameters comprise rod length, rod torsion angle, joint length and joint corner zero position. The main part of the device is a laser locating device based on multiple PSDs. The device has the advantages of small volume, low cost, no wire and cable and easiness for installation and operation. The calibration device can realize automatic location of the robot without manual intervention on the basis of the positions of light spots of the leaser beams fed back by the PSDs and has the characteristics of low cost, portability, high precision, automation, high efficiency and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the rapid calibration technology of kinematics parameters of industrial robots, in particular to a fast and low-cost calibration device and method for kinematics parameters of industrial robots. Background technique [0002] With the expansion of the application range of industrial robots and the need for complex tasks, the positioning accuracy of industrial robots is becoming more and more important. At present, industrial robots have high repeatability (0.1mm or higher), but (absolute) positioning accuracy is very low (up to 1cm or worse). The problem of positioning accuracy has seriously restricted the application capabilities and scope of industrial robots. Although there are many factors that lead to the low positioning accuracy of the robot, such as gear error, thermal expansion, and mechanical deformation of the robot rod, the most important factor comes from the parameter error of the robot kinematics model. Robot cali...
