Abstract

This paper deals with a multi-microprocessor system to solve problems due to the increasing complexity of robotic welding process, and associated models. The system functions are analysed and a design is obtained by partitioning the system controller into functional blocks. Six processing units are defined and designed to support the implementation of those functional blocks and to accomodate parallel processing operations. A low refresh time of 5 ms is obtained in controlling the overall system.
