Remote interface control for a pick-and-place robotic manipulator: a didactic approach

This paper presents a remote interface control for a pick-and-place robotic manipulator based on the integration of RS-232-C communication standard between a PLC and a microcontroller. This solution is obtained by the connection of two Arduino UNO boards and a ILC 131 ETH PLC from Phoenix Contact through an RS-232-C to TTL signal convert interface. The description of all the selected hardware and software is presented through different sections. A PLC webserver solution was developed to teach manually the robotic manipulator the desired positions in order to adjust to the pick-and-place application.
