As the application of industrial robots becomes increasingly widespread, programmable logic controllers (PLCs) are being extensively used to control industrial robots. For technicians engaged in the industrial robot industry or those looking to enter this field, mastering the knowledge and skills of communication between PLCs and industrial robots has become increasingly important. Thus, the “Illustrated Guide to Industrial Robot Control and PLC Communication” has emerged.
The “Illustrated Guide to Industrial Robot Control and PLC Communication” is suitable for engineering technicians engaged in the debugging and maintenance of industrial robots in enterprises, as well as students in colleges and universities studying industrial robot debugging and maintenance, mechatronics, electrical automation, and other related majors.
This book is divided into six chapters, explaining the communication technology between ABB, FANUC, KUKA industrial robots and PLCs through illustrations.
- Chapter 1 introduces the composition and function of the ABB industrial robot control cabinet, as well as the connection and control of safety control circuits.
- Chapter 2 discusses the communication between ABB industrial robots and Siemens PLCs using PROFIBUS, PROFINET, the communication between ABB industrial robots and Mitsubishi PLCs using CCLink, and the EtherNet/IP communication of ABB industrial robots.
- Chapter 3 introduces the composition and function of the FANUC industrial robot control cabinet, as well as the connection and control of safety control circuits.
- Chapter 4 covers the communication between FANUC industrial robots and Siemens PLCs using PROFIBUS, PROFINET, the communication between FANUC industrial robots and Mitsubishi PLCs using CCLink, the EtherNet/IP communication between FANUC industrial robots and Omron PLCs, and the automatic operation control of FANUC industrial robot programs.
- Chapter 5 introduces the composition and function of the KUKA industrial robot control cabinet, as well as the connection and control of safety control circuits.
- Chapter 6 discusses the communication between KUKA industrial robots and Siemens PLCs using PROFIBUS, PROFINET communication, and external automatic operation control of KUKA industrial robots.
