Abstract

A control method for a robot system includes a detection step of detecting a position of a female connector, a reference position setting step of setting a reference position as a reference for determination as to whether or not an insertion of a male connector into the female connector is successful based on the position of the female connector, and an insertion operation step of moving the male connector in an insertion start position along an insertion direction of the female connector, with a position where a force sensor of a robot detects a predetermined force generated by contact between the male connector and the female connector during the movement as a comparison position, and determining whether or not the insertion is successful by comparing the reference position and the comparison position.
