On Research Progress and Trend of Motion Control in Industrial Robot Applications

Industrial robots are quickly changing the industrial production processes to produce more products with less time and labor cost. However, the problems tightly bounded with motion control for industrial robots are still traditional and hottest focuses and been researched throughout the world. In this article, We mainly discussed the three aspects including the demand to identify the dynamic parameters, plan the trajectories, track the trajectories and optimize the dynamics of the motion of industrial robots in applications are discussed. We also investigated the proposed technologies to solve these problems or just improve the performances. In the end, we summarized these problems and solutions based on the literatures and discussed the potential solutions for these problems according to various applications and performance indices.
