Abstract

This paper firstly introduces the function and hardware components of the robot. Then the complex motion trajectory which must be implemented in small space is analyzed in accordance with the requirements of the control of archwire bending. Various communications methods that are used to set up a communication between the robot and the host control computer is studied as well as the principle and realization of the robot controlling method which is used to make a preparation for constituting the overall framework of control software. Finally, the procedure method of control software that is based on Visual C++6.0 is analyzed. The control software is used to control the archwire bending robot in remote mode.
