Problems solved by technology

The operator has no way of knowing when the robot arm will start the automatic teaching action. If it leaves the working range of the robot arm later, it may be hit by the moving robot arm, causing injury to the operator and causing work safety problems

Abstract

The invention discloses a robotic arm and a teaching method thereof. The method includes the steps that an arm body or a control device in the work environment of the robotic arm is provided with a prompting device; the control device controls a visual device on the arm to capture an image of an automatic teaching pattern arranged on the surface of a workpiece; and when the pattern identification is completed and before automatic teaching is started, the prompting device is controlled to give a warning, so that the personnel safety can be guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a robot arm, in particular to a method for the robot arm to capture pattern images through a visual device for identification during the teaching action, and to automatically complete the teaching action according to the pattern instructions. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of production technology, factory automation uses vision devices to locate objects and guide robotic arms to automatically grab objects for assembly and manufacturing to improve factory production speed and efficiency. The main issue that affects the automatic production efficiency of the robotic arm is the simple and safe teaching method, so that the robotic arm can quickly enter the production ranks to improve production efficiency. [0003] The prior art teaches the movement of the robot arm, generally using the input interface connected to the robot arm to edit the movement program of the robot arm, and simulate the movement path...
