Abstract
An operating method for a working area comprising an anthropomorphous robot enslaved to a bending press for working a metal sheet comprises a) detecting fixed input data formed by geometric positions in space of the robot, of the press and at least of one feeding unit, b) the definition of variable input data formed by thickness of the metal sheet, height, angle and direction of each bend, length and orientation of each bend, position of a bending tool, c) processing the above-mentioned data in a processing unit by an algorithm based on the solutions of the inverse kinematics in order to automatically generate cycles of feeding, bending and unloading of said metal sheet and d) the transfer of the cycles to a control unit of the robot so as to drive the bending press to start a complete productive working cycle of a finished metal sheet starting from the metal sheet to be bent.
