Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method for calibrating a system with a conveying apparatus and at least a first robot includes determining the positions of at least three measuring points of a first component transported by the conveying apparatus in a first transport position using the first robot. The method further includes determining the position of at least one of the measuring points in a second transport position using the first robot, or determining the positions of at least two of the measuring points of the component in a third transport position and the position of at least one other measuring point in the third transport position or at least one of these measuring points in a fourth transport position using at least one second robot.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . Method for calibrating a system with a conveying means ( 30 ) and a first robot ( 10 ), said method comprising the step of: determining the positions of at least, in particular, exactly, three measuring points (P 1, 1 , P 1, 2 , P 1, 3 ) of a first measuring point system, in particular, component, (W 1 ), transported by the conveying means, in a transport position (δ a ) by means of the first robot; and at least one of the steps of: determining the position of at least, in particular, exactly, one of these measuring points (P 1, 1 ) in another transport position (δ b ) by means of the first robot; and/or determining the positions of at least, in particular, exactly, two measuring points (P 1, 1 , P 1, 2/3 ) of the first measuring point system, in particular, component, in a transport position (δ c ; δ c′ ) and the position of at least, in particular, exactly, one further measuring point (P 1, 3/2 ) in this transport position (δ c′ ) or at least, in particular, exactly, one of these measuring points (P 1, 1 ) in another transport position (δ d ) by means of at least one second robot ( 20 ) of the system. 2 - 12 .
