  • Patent number: 11289303
    Abstract: A calibrating method is provided including the following steps. A type of a first sensor and a type of a first sensor carrier are determined according to an external shape of a first object. The first sensor is carried by the first sensor carrier, and a relative coordinate of the first object is measured by the first sensor. The relative coordinate of the first object is compared with a predetermined coordinate of the first object to obtain a first object coordinate error, and the first object coordinate error is corrected. After the first object coordinate error is corrected, the first object is driven to perform an operation on a second object or the second object is driven to perform the operation on the first object. A calibrating system is also provided.

  • Patent number: 11188057
    Abstract: A drilling system including a feed control module, a force control module, a hole breaking control module, a conversion module and a computing unit is provided. The feed control module sets a feed force threshold and a feed speed threshold for the computing unit to determine whether the current mode satisfies a first conversion condition. The hole breaking control module sets a drilling penetration force threshold and a drilling penetration speed threshold for the computing unit to determine whether the current mode satisfies a second conversion condition. The conversion module informs to change the feed force and the feed speed according to the determination results of the two conversion conditions. The force control module provides the feed force. With the drilling system, possible impact on the workpiece due to resistance change which occurs when the drill just touches and nearly gets through the workpiece will be reduced.

  • Patent number: 10967510
    Abstract: A robot arm processing system includes a robot arm, a processing module, and a control module. The robot arm is for providing a mechanical holding force. The processing module is disposed on the robot arm to process a workpiece. The control module is connected to the robot arm or the processing module. The control module outputs an anti-vibration signal according to the reaction force of the workpiece or the displacement of the robot arm to counteract the reaction force of the workpiece or the displacement of the robot arm.
