Abstract
This invention is directed to a method of controlling a grinder robot wherein a grinder is mounted at a tip of a robot finger, and a grinding operation is performed in respect of a prescribed grinding region of a work while controlling the pressing force of the grinder. The force control is exercised such that the pressing force of the grinder is made smaller as the grinder approaches a vicinity of a boundary of the grinding region.
