A set of robot integrated control system was designed for automatic press riveting, in order to solve low efficiency and poor consistency of traditional manual riveting. In the system, PLC was used to control the robot and the riveting machine, the automatic press riveting process of complex workpieces was realized by regional path planning, and online monitoring of process parameters and equipment status were realized. The riveting results show that the total process time of automatic riveting is about 170 minutes, the efficiency increases by 60%, and the riveted products have better consistency. The design method can be transplanted to other application fields of industrial robots, which has a strong reference significance.
