lower than the maximum running frequency. In order to improve the efficiency of the step motor, the increase and decrease of the speed is must considered when the step motor running in high speed and start or stop with great acceleration. The increase and decrease of the motor’s speed can be controlled by the pulse freque ncy sent to the step motor drive with a rational method. This can be implemented either by hardware or by software. A step motor shift control method is proposed, which is simple to calculate, easy to realize and the theory means is straightforward. The motor'''' s acceleration can fit the torque-frequency curve properly with this method. And the amount of calculation load is less than the linear acceleration shift control method and the method which is based on the exponential rule to change speed. The method is tested by experiment. A t last, the research content and the achievement are sum up and the problems and shortages in main the content are also listed. The development and application of robot in the future is expected.
The purpose of manipulator control is to maintain the dynamic response of a computer-based manipulator in accordance with some prespecified system
performance and desired goals. In general, the dynamic performance of a manipulator directly depends on the efficiency of the control algorithms and the dynamic model of the manipulator. The control problem consists of obtaining dynamic models of the physical robot arm system and then specifying corresponding control laws or strategies to achieve the desired system response and performance.
Current industrial approaches to robot arm control treat each joint of the robot arm as a simple joint servomechanism. The servomechanism approach models the varying dynamics of a manipulator inadequately because it neglects the motion and configuration of the whole arm mechanism. These changes in the parameters of the controlled system sometimes are significant enough to render conventional feedback control strategies ineffective. The result is reduced servo response speed and damping, limiting the precision and speed of the end-effector and making it appropriate only for limited-precision tasks. Manipulators controlled in this manner move at slow speeds with unnecessary vibrations. Any significant performance gain in this and other areas of robot arm control require the consideration of more efficient dynamic models, sophisticated control approaches, and the use of dedicated computer architectures and parallel processing techniques.
In the industrial production and other fields, people often endangered by such factors as high temperature, corrode, poisonous gas and so forth at work, which have
increased labor intensity and even jeopardized the life sometimes. The corresponding problems are solved since the robot arm comes out. The robot arms can catch, put and carry objects, and its movements are flexible and diversified. It applies to medium and small-scale automated production in which production varieties can be switched. And it is widely used on soft automatic line. The robot arms are generally made by withstand high temperatures, resist corrosion of materials to adapt to the harsh environment. So they reduced the labor intensity of the workers significantly and raised work efficiency. The robot arm is an important component of industrial robots, and it can be called industrial robots on many occasions. Industrial robot is set machinery, electronics, control, computers, sensors, artificial intelligence and other advanced technologies in the integration of multidisciplinary important modern manufacturing equipment. Widely using industrial robots, not only can improve product quality and production, but also is of great significance for physical security protection, improvement of the environment for labor, reducing labor intensity, improvement of labor productivity, raw material consumption savings and lowering production costs.
There are such mechanical components as ball footbridge, slides, an air control mechanical hand and so on in the design. A programmable controller, a programming device, stepping motors, stepping motors drives, direct current motors, sensor, switch power supply, an electromagnetism valve and control desk are used in electrical connection. The programmable controller output two lines pulses to stepping motors drives to drive the two stepping motors drives on beam and vertical axis; direct current motors drive the rotation of the base and the hand; sensors send signals of location to the mainframe, and the mainframe sends directive to control the extension and contraction, up and down, moves location; the mainframe send signals to control the opening and closing of the hand to carry objects. Related parameters can be changed according to request of the changes of the objects and movement flow at any time change the relevant parameters in the design, so it has great flexibility and operability.

数控技术
数控是可编程自动化技术的一种形式，通过数字、字母和其他符号来控制加工设备。数字、字母和符号用适当的格式编码为一个特定工件定义指令程序。
当工件改变时，指令程序就改变。这种改变程序的能力使数控适合于中、小批量生产，写一段新程序远比对加工设备做大的改动容易得多。
数控机床有两种基本形式：点位控制和连续控制(也称为轮廓控制)。点位控制机床采用异步电动机，因此，主轴的定位只能通过完成一个运动或一个电动机的转动来实现。这种机床主要用于直线切削或钻孔、镗孔等场合。
数控系统由下列组件组成：数据输入装置，带控制单元的磁带阅读机，反馈装置和切削机床或其他形式的数控设备。
数据输人装置，也称“人机联系装置”，可用人工或全自动方法向机床提供数据。人工方法作为输人数据唯一方法时，只限于少量输入。人工输入装置有键盘，拨号盘，按钮，开关或拨轮选择开关，这些都位于机床附近的一个控制台上。拨号盘通常连到一个同步解析器或电位计的模拟装置上。在大多数情况下，按钮、开关和其他类似的旋钮是数据输入元件。人工输入需要操作者控制每个操作，这是一个既慢又单调的过程，除了简单加工场合或特殊情况，已很少使用。
几乎所有情况下，信息都是通过卡片、穿孔纸带或磁带自动提供给控制单元。在传统的数控系统中，八信道穿孔纸带是最常用的数据输入形式，纸带上的编码指令由一系列称为程序块的穿孔组成。每一个程序块代表一种加工功能、一种操作或两者的组合。纸带上的整个数控程序由这些连续数据单元连接而成。带有程序的长带子像电影胶片一样绕在盘子上，相对较短的带子上的程序可通过将纸带两端连接形成一个循环而连续不断地重复使用。带子一旦安装好，就可反复使用而无需进一步处理。此时，操作者只是简单地上、下工件。穿孔纸带是在带有特制穿孔附件的打字机或直接连到计算机上的纸带穿孔装置上做成的。纸带制造很少不出错，错误可能由编程、卡片穿孔或编码、纸带穿孔时的物理损害等形成。通常，必须要试走几次来排除错误，才能得到一个可用的工作纸带。
虽然纸带上的数据是自动进给的，但实际编程却是手工完成的，在编码纸带做好前，编程者经常要和一个计划人员或工艺工程师一起工作，选择合适的数控机床，决定加工材料，计算切削速度和进给速度，决定所需刀具类型，仔细阅读零件图上尺寸，定下合适的程序开始的零参考点，然后写出程序清单，其上记载有描述加工顺序的编码数控指令，机床按顺序加工工件到图样要求。
控制单元接受和储存编码数据，直至形成一个完整的信息程序块，然后解释数控指令，并引导机床得到所需运动。
为更好理解控制单元的作用，可将它与拨号电话进行比较，即每拨一个数字，就储存一个，当整个数字拨好后，电话就被激活，也就完成了呼叫。
装在控制单元里的纸带阅读机，通过其内的硅光二极管，检测到穿过移动纸带上的孔漏过的光线，将光束转变成电能，并通过放大来进一步加强信号，然后将信号送到控制单元里的寄存器，由它将动作信号传到机床驱动装置。
有些光电装置能以高达每秒1000个字节的速度阅读，这对保持机床连续动作是必须的，否则，在轮廓加工时，刀具可能在工件上产生划痕。阅读装置必须要能以比控制系统处理数据更快的速度来阅读数据程序块。
反馈装置是用在一些数控设备上的安全装置，它可连续补偿控制位置与机床运动滑台的实际位置之间的误差。装有这种直接反馈检查装置的数控机床有一个闭环系统装置。位置控制通过传感器实现，在实际工作时，记录下滑台的位置，并将这些信息送回控制单元。接受到的信号与纸带输入的信号相比较，它们之间的任何偏差都可得到纠正。
在另一个称为开环的系统中，机床仅由响应控制器命令的步进电动机驱动定位，工件的精度几乎完全取决于丝杠的精度和机床结构的刚度。有几个理由可以说明步进电机是一个自动化申请的非常有用的驱动装置。对于一件事物，它被不连续直流电压脉冲驱使,是来自数传计算机和其他的自动化的非常方便的输出控制系统。当多数是索引或其他的自动化申请所必备者的时候，步进电机对运行一个精确的有角进步也是理想的。因为控制系统不需要监听就提供特定的输出指令而且期待系统适当地反应的公开- 环操作造成一个回应环，步进电机是理想的。 一些工业的机械手使用高抬腿运步的马乘汽车驾驶员，而且步进电机是有用的在数字受约束的工作母机中。 这些申请的大部分是公开- 环 ,但是雇用回应环检测受到驱策的成份位置是可能的。 环的一个分析者把真实的位置与需要的位置作比较，而且不同是考虑过的错误。 那然后驾驶员能发行对步进电机的电脉冲，直到错误被减少对准零位。在这个系统中，没有信息反馈到控制单元的自矫正过程。出现误动作时，控制单元继续发出电脉冲。比如，一台数控铣床的工作台突然过载，阻力矩超过电机转矩时，将没有响应信号送回到控制器。因为，步进电机对载荷变化不敏感，所以许多数控系统设计允许电机停转。然而，尽管有可能损坏机床结构或机械传动系统，也有使用带有特高转矩步进电机的其他系统，此时，电动机有足够能力来应付系统中任何偶然事故。
最初的数控系统采用开环系统。在开、闭环两种系统中，闭环更精确，一般说来更昂贵。起初，因为原先传统的步进电动机的功率限制，开环系统几乎全
部用于轻加工场合，最近出现的电液步进电动机已越来越多地用于较重的加工领域。

NUMERICAL CONTROL
Numerical control(N／C)is a form of programmable automation in which the processing equipment is controlled by means of numbers，letters，and other symbols．The numbers，letters，and symbols are coded in an appropriate format to define a program of instructions for a particular workpart or job．When the job changes，the program of instructions is changed．The capability to change the program is what makes N／C suitable for low-and medium-volume production．It is much easier to write programs than to make major alterations of the processing equipment．
There are two basic types of numerically controlled machine tools：point—to—point and continuous—path(also called contouring)．Point—to—point machines use unsynchronized motors，with the result that the position of the machining head Can be assured only upon completion of a movement，or while only one motor is running．Machines of this type are principally used for straight—line cuts or for drilling or boring．
The N／C system consists of the following components：data input，the tape reader with the control unit，feedback devices，and the metal—cutting machine tool or other type of N／C equipment．
Data input，also called“man—to—control link”，may be provided to the machine tool manually，or entirely by automatic means．Manual methods when used as the sole source of input data are restricted to a relatively small number of inputs．Examples of manually operated devices are keyboard dials，pushbuttons，switches，or thumbwheel selectors．These are located on a console near the machine．Dials ale analog devices usually connected to a syn-chro-type resolver or potentiometer．In most cases，pushbuttons，switches，and other similar types of selectors aye digital input devices．Manual input requires that the operator set the controls for each operation．It is a slow and tedious process and is seldom justified except in elementary machining applications or in special cases．
