Abstract
The invention relates to an industrial robot () having a control apparatus (), and to a method for controlling the movement of the industrial robot (). For the purposes of the method, an instruction which is intended for controlling the industrial robot () is checked, an interpreted instruction is produced by interpretation of the checked instruction by means of an interpreter (), and the interpreted instruction is stored in a temporary store (). This process is repeated until a first keyword is detected. A data record () is then produced from the interpreted instructions stored in the temporary store (), wherein the data record () has information relating to at least one path element of a path on which the industrial robot () is intended to be moved. The data record () is loaded into a buffer store (), is checked by the buffer store () and is interpolated by means of an interpolator (), in order to move the industrial robot () on the path element.
