Recently, developers of machining tools have begun paying more and more attention to multi-joint dual-arm robot, and it is expected the robot will reclaim its place in the field of new automation. Industrial dual-arm robots have therefore gained attention as new tools to control both linear motion and rotational motion accurately. On the other hand, the five-axis control machining center controlling the motion of three translation axes and two rotation axes has put into wide practical use. However, a one problem has been that it may be the difficult to measure the synchronic accuracy of rotation two axes without high accuracy gyro sensor. In the present report, we proposed a novel method to measure the synchronic accuracy of rotation two axes of machine tool table with a ball, which keeps a ball rolling around a circular path on the working plate by dual-arm cooperating control. As a result, we investigated an influence of each axis motion error on a ball- rolling path, and demonstrated this method made it feasible to estimate the synchronic accuracy of rotation two axes of machine tool table.

Dual-arm industrial robots have been gaining attention as novel tools in the field of new automation. We therefore focus on them to flexibly control both the linear motion and the rotational motion of a working plate. However, the difficulty of measuring the synchronous accuracy of two rotary axes without a highaccuracy gyro sensor has been a problem. We therefore propose a novel method of using a ball to measure the synchronous accuracy of two rotary axes of a working plate. The plate uses dual-arm cooperative control to keep the ball rolling in a circular path on it. In this report, we investigate the effects of the rolling friction coefficient of the ball on its sensitivity and resolution to estimate the synchronous accuracy of two rotary axes.

Recently, new needs have emerged to control not only linear motion but also rotational motion in high-accuracy manufacturing fields. Many five-axis-controlled machining centres are therefore in use. However, one problem has been the difficulty of creating flexible manufacturing systems with methods based on the use of these machine tools. On the other hand, the industrial dual-arm robot has gained attention as a new way to achieve accurate linear and rotational motion in an attempt to control a working plate like a machine tool table. In the present report, a cooperating dual-arm motion is demonstrated to make it feasible to perform stable operation control, such as controlling the working plate to keep a ball rolling around a circular path on it. As a result, we investigated the influence of each axis motion error on a ball-rolling path.

Industrial dual-arm robots have been gaining attention as novel tools in the field of new automation. Our past research has focused on using them flexibly to control both the linear and rotational motions of a working plate. However, it has been difficult to measure the synchronous accuracy of two rotary axes without a high-accuracy gyro sensor. We therefore developed a novel method to measure the synchronous accuracy of the two rotary axes of a working plate with a ball, in which the ball is kept rolling around a circular path by dual-arm cooperative control. In the present report, in order to widen the range of application, we tried to keep the ball rolling around a rhomboid path, which is one of the polygonal paths used on a working plate by dual-arm cooperative control. It could be seen that there is some possibility of generating an equal speed diamond motion by inputting wave as the odd power of a trigonometric function and considered a deceleration angle with the robot that we handled.
