Robot zero calibration system and method based on laser triangulation ranging

Abstract

The invention discloses a robot zero calibration system and method based on laser triangulation ranging. The system comprises calibrators, targets and a controller. The three calibrators are installed on rigid bases at any position in the surroundings of a robot respectively, the three targets are correspondingly pasted on three perpendicular planes, corresponding to the calibrators, of the tail end of a robot body, and the controller is arranged at a certain surrounding position needed by the robot. Each calibrator is composed of two laser triangulation displacement sensors with the absolute displacement measurement function and a shell, wherein read data of the two laser triangulation displacement sensors is directly transmitted to the controller, and the controller achieves zero calibration of the robot through data processing. The robot zero calibration system and method are high in calibration precision, free of influences on the robot body and suitable for design of novel robots and accessory installation of in-service robots and have the highest universality.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a robot zero position calibration system and method, in particular to a robot zero position calibration system and method based on laser triangulation ranging. Background technique [0002] The robot is an open-loop kinematics structure. The angle value of the joint rotation is obtained through an angle measuring device (usually an incremental encoder), and the spatial pose of the current robot end effector is obtained through the robot kinematics model. Because in the robot production process, mechanical manufacturing and assembly, encoder, motion control and other links inevitably have various errors, gravity deformation, thermal deformation, clearance and wear, and other random errors during the use of the robot, so Compared with the ideal value, the actual space pose of the robot end usually has a large deviation, which affects the robot's motion accuracy. [0003] By calibrating the robot to obtain the accurate structure and pos...
