Many limitations of position control
• cannot adapt to sudden changes in environment
• if a contact occurs the controller increases motor torques (risk of damage or injuries)
• difficult or impossible to work on workpieces with complex geometry
Force control allows also to
• control the interaction force and ensure a stable contact
• enable physical human-robot interaction (manual guidance)
But it is still not robust enough to be an industrial product!
Force control: why is it so important?
