Hi all,
        Has anyone used an Leoni TCP sensor with krc2 or KRC3?
Leoni supports most of the communication protocol in my case is devicenet, and the wago 750-346 field bus connection series 231(MSC) is currently used to connect to krc2/3 mfc port. From what I heard is that Leoni TCP sensor is connected to Leoni controller then a cable from Leoni controller to  devicenet of kuka, but that's not possible because that port is taken (v+, can_high, drain, can_low, v- ), any suggestion is appreciated,

Thanks,

Hi Johannes,
                   Have you ever encountered excess of poly stock left in between the front and the rear of a milling operation when milling a 3d head sculpture? I solved this by moving the tool length in the -z direction by 4mm where the excess of stock thickness is 8mm, but what actually causing this?
Basically the robot moves the router bits to the right side of the stock to start milling the face and once finished the robot moves to the left to finish up the rear of the head, the excess poly stock lies in between the front and rear of the head,

thanks,

Cheerio!!

Hello All,
             Long time no see.
We are trying to build a simulator module in GH for Mitsubishi RM-501, similar to Kuka PRC but for Mitsubishi. this robot does not have its own Mitsubishi controller, we made one for it. The controller hardware is ready, all 6 axes tested with our own written IK. On the GH side, this is more complicated for us and I'm hopping the administrator could give us a hand on where to start in GH. Another collegue here knows programming, he will be dealing with Python which what I've heard that it is related to Gh.

Looking forward to your replies,

Hi,
    I would like to import the Gh components in this picture:


to this gh file:


I tried to align the gripper in picture 2, but the robot is in an awkward position so to straighten up the robot by using the slider for each axis in file 02_PRCIntro_AxisMovement - KR200-2-test.gh, open attachment.

I have managed to calibrate my kr210 c2 + external rotary synchronous, :

Can I test a code from kuka prc?

Hello Johannes,
                          Can I use Kuka PRC for Brick laying? I might try this first with Fablab Taiwan sometime soon.
If so, I will join member asap.

Hello,
         I know Kuka PRC works well with Sprutcam but how about other CAM software like Mastercam, Rhinocam, Powermill so on... can Kuka|PRC work with Mastercam or Rhinocam?

thanks,

Hi Johannes,
                     You mentioned somewhere in this forum about External axis features are for members only, in this link: http://forum.robotsinarchitecture.org/index.php/topic,25.0.html, in order to use the external axis I have to be a member of the Association for Robots in Architecture, is there any other alternative to become a member?

thanks,

Hi all,
         I have 2 robots ready to test, 1 KRC2 and 1 KRC1.
I recently finished the ATC hardware setups with success (although still waiting for ATC tool rack to be made), spindle on + speed ( 1 speed), is there a components in Kuka prc for this function? please include examples.

thanks,

Once I finish demonstrate 8 axis Milling with RM, my next task is to build my own controller for 6 axis robot. Currently available controller for homebrew are MAch3, EMC2, and LNC 6 axis controller, till then I might need PRC's help for post-processor and maybe build a homebrew robot as well, so what do you think?
