This paper presents some aspects regarding the possibility of combining microcontroller and programmable logic controller (PLC) for robot control. The RPP robot is designed and manufactured within the Faculty of Engineering from “Lucian Blaga” University of Sibiu, as a patent: BRAŢ TELESCOPIC, Nr. 112418 B1, Int.CI.6 B 25 J 18/02, from 17.02.1997. Classical systems for programming and control of industrial robot are based on numerical control equipment, developed around a PC. Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) haves proven to be viable alternatives to driving machine tools, industrial systems and Robots. Microcontrollers as computers offer advantage due to programmable inputs and outputs ports. The application of a microcontroller and PLC in control of a robot is presented in this paper.
