Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to an automatic generation method, a test method and a visual test system of a PLC code of an excavator control program, and belongs to the technical field of engineering machinery.
Background
In recent years, with the appearance and development of high and new technologies, the technical level of engineering machinery is continuously improved, and the engineering machinery industry provides powerful guarantee for national infrastructure, and belongs to one of the fields of national emphasis on encouraging development. With the continuous development of national economy and the arrival of the era of internet, electronic information technology and artificial intelligence, more requirements are put forward on the development of the engineering machinery industry, traditional engineering machinery products are more and more developed towards automation and intellectualization by manual operation, and software development not only occupies larger proportion in the development process of the whole product, but also has more and more complex programs.
Because the working environment conditions of the engineering machinery are generally severe and the duration of single operation is very long, the controller and the program operation are required to be reliable and stable enough, the excavator control program in the traditional engineering machinery industry is mainly realized by manually writing PLC codes, the method is stable and feasible after practice verification, but the action types of the existing engineering machinery excavator are relatively fixed, the control program has a simple logic structure, most of the control programs belong to the condition of single input and single output, namely, one instruction is operated to carry out a corresponding action, the development environment based on IEC61131-3 is generally adopted, a sequence structure is generally adopted, a programming language of a ladder diagram or a function block diagram is used, although the development of the engineering machinery control system is convenient, the software functions are more and more abundant along with the improvement of the intelligent requirement of the control system, programs will also become more complex and existing approaches have become increasingly difficult to meet with current technology developments in terms of flexibility and development efficiency.
In addition, in the engineering machinery industry, the excavator has more action instructions, and the requirements on the control system in the aspects of real-time performance and accuracy are higher and higher, so that the control effect needs to be verified at the early stage of program development, and the investment of manpower and material resources in the test process of a prototype is reduced. At present, the mainstream method is to directly adopt real vehicle verification or use an analog simulation test platform with simple functions, the control effect cannot be visually displayed, the visualization capability is poor, the detail display aiming at the action process is rough, meanwhile, the requirements of different environment working conditions on a machine are different, and the practical problems are also key factors for restricting the debugging of control program parameters.
With the improvement of the intellectualization requirement of the control system, the control program becomes more and more complex, and the flexibility and the development efficiency of the software are more and more emphasized by developers. The existing manual program compiling mode developers need to master the use of a software development platform skillfully, and also need to spend a great deal of energy to solve the non-technical problem in the coding process, so that the development efficiency is low, the errors are more, and the system is difficult to adapt to the system with complex subsequent functions. Due to poor readability of the handwritten codes and the fact that writing styles of everyone are different, much inconvenience is brought to later maintenance and experience reference. After the program is compiled, the simulation test precision is low, the simulation modeling process is complex, the visualization capability is poor, the human-computer interaction cannot obtain an intuitive control effect, the controlled dynamic change process cannot be seen as soon as possible before the program real vehicle test, meanwhile, the complex environmental working condition cannot be simulated, the full verification of the road environment is lacked, and the time and the labor are wasted completely depending on the real vehicle test in the later period.
