Title:- Difference between motion control and Robot Systems A motion control programming system is a simple concept. Start and control the movement of the load to perform the task. Accurate speed, position and torque control are possible. Applications that need to position the product, synchronize individual items or start and stop operations quickly are examples of the use of motion control. These systems generally consist of three basic components: a controller, a drive (or amplifier) and a motor. The controller programs a path or path calculation, sends a low voltage command signal to the drive and applies the required voltage and current to the motor to achieve the desired behavior. Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) provide affordable and noise-free motion control methods. Ladder logic programming was an integral part of the PLC through the latest models with Human- machine interface panels (HMI) that visually represent the programming code. The PLC can be used to control various programming settings of motion control and logical control of the machine. In a typical PLC-based motion control system, a high-speed pulse output card is used to generate a pulse train for each servo or step-by-step control unit in the PLC. The drive receives the pulses and indexes the motor shaft for each pulse to a preset value. A separate signal is used to determine the direction of movement. This method is called "step and direction". What elements are important? • Co-Velocity: The rate of change of position with respect to time. Vector quantity composed of size and direction • Speed: The size of the speed. • Acceleration / deceleration: The rate of change of speed over time. • Load: Servo system drive element. This includes all the components of the machine and the tasks that move. • Servo amplifier: The unit adjusts the power of the servomotor. • Servo controller: Also known as position controller, it usually provides programming or instructions for the servo amplifier in the form of an analog DC voltage signal. • Servomotor: The device that moves the load. This is the main mobile element and can include a range of main motors, such as actuators and induction motors. • Stepper controller: A device that excites the windings of a stepper motor and supplies pulses that cause mechanical rotation. Also known as speed controller. The frequency or pulse determines the motor speed and the pulse number determines the position of the motor. • Speed converter: also called a tachometer generator, it monitors the speed of the servo monitor.
What Is Robot?? According to the Robot Institute, "robots are reprogrammable multifunction actuators that are designed to move through various movements programmed to perform various tasks on a special material, part, tool or device. Some components found in the motion control system are inside the robot, but are fixed inside the robot. Motor speed, actuator and mechanical link are part of the robot. Similarity between robot and motion control system. The components of a robot system are similar to those of motion control systems. Some of the controllers work together and have controllers that allow them to connect to other systems. The program code is entered into the controller. Many modern robots also use HMIs built on computer operating systems such as Windows PCs. The robotic system also has a unit (i.e engine or motor) that moves the link to a designated position. A link is a section between joints. The robot moves using a hydraulic, electric or pneumatic drive. The sensor receives feedback in the robot environment and provides images and sounds used for operational control and safety. They collect the information and send it to the robot controller. Difference between motion control system and robot. The biggest difference between these two systems is time and money. Modern robots are advertised as ready-to-use solutions. The disadvantage of robots is the cost. On the other hand, the components that make up the motion control application are modular and can control the movement system moderately, thus improving cost control. However, there is a growing demand for knowledge for the user to properly operate the motion control system. Its components require individual programming of the end user.
