Method of adjusting force control parameter
View Patent ↗A method of adjusting a force control parameter includes a first step of moving a robot arm based on first information on work start position and orientation of the robot arm and a candidate value of a force control parameter, and acquiring second information on a working time taken for the work and third information on a force applied to the robot arm during the work, and a second step of acquiring an updated value obtained by updating of the candidate value of the force control parameter based on the acquired second information and third information, wherein the first step and the second step are repeatedly performed with noise added to the first information until the acquired working time or force applied to the robot arm converges, and a final value of the force control parameter is obtained.
1. A method of adjusting a force control parameter of a robot having a robot arm driven by force control and performing work, comprising:
a first step of moving the robot arm based on first information on work start position and orientation of the robot arm and a candidate value of the force control parameter, and acquiring second information on a working time taken for the work and third information on a force applied to the robot arm during the work; and
a second step of acquiring an updated value obtained by updating of the candidate value of the force control parameter based on the acquired second information and third information, wherein
the first step and the second step are repeatedly performed with noise added to the first information until the acquired working time or force applied to the robot arm converges, and a final value of the force control parameter is obtained.
2. The method of adjusting the force control parameter according to claim 1 , wherein
the final value of the force control parameter is the updated value of the force control parameter when a state in which a degree of a difference between the working time obtained at the first step at an nth time, n being an integer equal to or larger than one, and the working time obtained at the first step at an (n+1)th time is equal to or less than a level continues at m times, m being an integer equal to or larger than one.
3. The method of adjusting the force control parameter according to claim 1 , wherein
the third information acquired at the first step is a maximum value of the force applied to the robot arm during the work.
4. The method of adjusting the force control parameter according to claim 1 , wherein
the updated value of the force control parameter includes at least one of a target force, a virtual viscosity coefficient, a virtual elastic coefficient, a virtual mass coefficient, the work start position and orientation, and work end position and orientation.
5. The method of adjusting the force control parameter according to claim 1 , wherein
the work is insertion work to grip and insert a first object into a second object.
6. The method of adjusting the force control parameter according to claim 1 , wherein
the first information input by a worker is a value having a range of the work start position and orientation.
7. The method of adjusting the force control parameter according to claim 1 , wherein
when the force applied to the robot arm during the work based on the first information with added noise exceeds a threshold value as a preset range of gravity compensation and inertia compensation, a failure of the work is stored.
