Embodiment 1

[0051] figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the principle of the monitoring system of the robotic arm in Embodiment 1 of the present invention, figure 2 It is a schematic structural diagram of the monitoring system of the robotic arm in Embodiment 1 of the present invention, combined with figure 1 and figure 2 As shown, the robot arm 100 has a robot plate 110 for carrying substrates. Apparently, when the precision of the robot arm 100 is abnormal, the position of the manipulator plate 110 will be affected correspondingly, and then when the manipulator plate 110 picks and places the substrate, it is very easy to scratch the substrate. Therefore, the present invention utilizes a The monitoring system monitors the position of the manipulator plate 110 to reflect the positioning accuracy of the manipulator 100 . In the monitoring system of this embodiment, the position information of the manipulator plate 110 is obtained through a sensing unit 200, and the position information...

Embodiment 2

[0064] Figure 4 It is a schematic structural diagram of the monitoring system of the robotic arm in Embodiment 2 of the present invention, as Figure 4 and combine figure 1 As shown, the difference from Embodiment 1 is that in this embodiment, the sensing unit 200' is used to detect whether there is a manipulator disc 110 in its sensing area, wherein the sensing area of ​​the sensing unit 200' is the manipulator disc 110 area of ​​predetermined location. That is, when the sensing unit 200' does not detect the manipulator disc 110, it means that there is a deviation in the position of the manipulator disc 110; when the sensing unit 200' detects the manipulator disc 110, it means that there is no position deviation , the precision of the robotic arm is normal, and production operations can continue.

[0065] Specifically, the sensing unit 200' can adopt an optical fiber sensor, which includes a transmitting part 210' and a receiving part 220', the transmitting part 210' is u...

Embodiment 3

[0068] In addition, according to the above-mentioned monitoring system of the robotic arm, the present invention also provides a monitoring method of the robotic arm. Figure 5 It is a schematic flow chart of the monitoring method of the robotic arm in Embodiment 1 of the present invention, refer to Figure 5 and combine figure 1 As shown, the monitoring method includes:

[0069] S10, providing a mechanical arm, the mechanical arm includes a mechanical hand plate;

[0070] S20, using a sensing unit to acquire position information of the manipulator disc, and sending the position information of the manipulator disc to a data processing unit;

[0071] S30, using the data processing unit to determine whether there is a deviation in the position of the manipulator disc.

[0072] Wherein, in step S20-S30, can refer to Figure 6a A method for judging the position deviation of the manipulator disc is shown. That is, in step S20, the method for the sensing unit to acquire the pos...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a monitoring system and a monitoring method of a mechanical arm. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of the degree of mechanization, the mechanical arm gradually replaces the manual execution of various actions, so that automated production can be realized. Moreover, compared with manual operation, the use of robotic arms for operation has higher precision. Therefore, for some occasions that require high precision, robotic arms are the best choice. However, as the mechanical arm is used for a long time, it is easy to have the problem of mechanical aging or component damage, which will affect the accuracy of the mechanical arm, which may cause the problem that the mechanical arm bumps into other workpieces during the operation. Therefore , the accuracy confirmation of the robotic arm is very important. Contents of the invention [0003] The pur...
