Abstract
While jog feeding, if the robot can be moved safely without interference or collision with others, the data on jog feeding path is accumulated in an external memory device. And a safe region in which the robot can move without interference or collision can make from some accumulated paths in the robot axial space and stored. When start point and end point for the desired path are specified, one path, which links the start point and the end point and is composed of such safe regions, is found. Then the robot positions are taught as positions corresponding to the path.
