Abstract: The casting industry sometimes uses a pouring process in which molten metal is poured from a ladle into a mold by tilting the ladle. Since the process involves molten metal, the process creates a dangerous environment for workers. Therefore, an automatic pouring robot has recently been exploited to improve the working environment. This talk will present the advanced control system for the automatic pouring robot. First, the modeling of the automatic pouring robot is introduced. Then, the filling weight control system and the falling position control to the outflow liquid are shown in the talk. In the filling weight control, the state of the pouring process are estimated by using extended Kalman filter and the predictive switching control is designed for precisely pouring. Finally, the sloshing suppression control to the liquid container transfer is introduced. It is designed by the reference governor approach. The control system can be applied to the liquid container transfer system with constraints of input and state.
