Abstract

The article analyzes the influence of control signal delays on the initiation of movement in a distributed group of robots and the implementation of the robots’ programmed trajectory. A static analysis was carried out in a distributed group of robots, where the applied constraint was the connection of the robots to a transport pallet. The loads resulting from delayed transmission of the control signal were subjected to a dynamic analysis in MSC Adams View software.
