A robot interference prevention control device reads in advance a teaching
program of each robot, calculates a scheduled stop position for each
robot when issuing a stop command after n number of interpolation periods
from the current interpolation period, and checks whether or not
interference would occur at the scheduled stop position of each robot.
When the robot interference prevention control device judges that a robot
will interfere with another robot, it outputs a stop command at the
current interpolation period. Due to this, a stop command is output
before n number of interpolation periods from the interpolation period
where interference would occur and thereby the occurrence of interference
can be prevented.
