Automation of robot arm model using programmable logic controller S7-1200 in programming language SCL

Zadatak algoritma upravljanja je upravljanje modelom robotske ruke prilikom prebacivanja predmeta sa početnog na željeno mjesto. Algoritam je ostvaren u programskom jeziku SCL (strukturirani programski jezik) te uporabom PLC-a S7-1200. Ostvarena su tri načina rada: ručni način rada, automatski način rada i automatski uzastopni način rada. U ručnom načinu rada korisnik direktno upravlja svim kretnjama robotske ruke dok kod automatskog i automatskog uzastopnog načina samo unosi koordinate predmeta te algoritam autonomno upravlja kretnjama robotske ruke. Ostvareno je i korisničko sučelje koji omogućuje korisniku kontrolu nad robotskom rukom te praćenje njezinih kretnji u stvarnom vremenu.Control algorithm accomplished in this assignment had to control movement of the robotic arm in the process of transferring object from starting position to wanted position. Algorithm was written in program language SCL and with the use of PLC S7-1200. Three modes of control where achieved. Hand mode in which user is in full and direct control of the arm movement and the auto mod where user is only giving coordinates to the algorithm and the algorithm is in control of the arm movement. User is in control of the robotic arm through Human Machine interface. In the Human machine interface user can also monitor movement of the robotic arm in real time
