A dual-arm robot assembling system including a controlling unit, a GUI, a first robotic-arm, and a second robotic-arm is disclosed. The GUI provides a graphic program editing page, which provides multiple instruction blocks used for editing a graphical program executed by the assembling system. At least one of the first robotic arm and the second robotic arm is disposed with a point-teaching tool thereon. Before the controlling unit controls the two robotic arms to perform an assembling operation based on the graphical program, a manager may directly drag the two robotic arms through the point-teaching tool, so as to implement a point-teaching procedure for the two robotic arms. Therefore, the assembling system may accomplish the assembling operation through the two robotic arms with cooperative movement.

Dual-arm robot assembling system

A calibration apparatus includes a processor, an alignment device, and an arm. The alignment device captures images in a three-dimensional space, and a tool is arranged on a flange of the arm. The processor records a first matrix of transformation between an end-effector coordinate-system and a robot coordinate-system, and performs a tool calibration procedure according to the images captured by the alignment device for obtaining a second matrix of transformation between a tool coordinate-system and the end-effector coordinate-system. The processor calculates relative position of a tool center point of the tool in the robot coordinate-system based on the first and second matrixes, and controls the TCP to move in the three-dimensional space for performing a positioning procedure so as to regard points in an alignment device coordinate-system as points of the TCP, and calculates the relative positions of points in the alignment device coordinate-system and in the robot coordinate-system.
