Abstract

See full text

A method and an apparatus for automatically generating a collision free return program for returning a robot from a stop position to a predefined restart position when the robot has been stopped during operation due to an error. The apparatus includes a receiving part adapted to receive a request for a recovery path and information on the stop position of the robot. A path generating part is adapted to generate a collision free recovery path for the robot upon receiving the request, based on the predefined restart position and the stop position of the robot using a path planning algorithm that generates robot positions connected by collision free path segments. A programming part is adapted to generate the return program based on the generated return path.
