Glad to hear they're helpful!

Excellent! Thanks!

.. and any tips/examples on using a linear rail?

Hi Johannes,

An incredibly professional setup, but a little smaller than I'm used to! Once I have everything synced in KUKA PRC, I'm hoping it will be a lot of fun!

How do I know if the rail is synced? Its setup on E1 and I can move it using the pendant and has software switches for its distances? What is the process to integrate the rail? Time and money wise - so I can inform the university?

99% sure the ROBROOT has C set to 180..

Heres hoping I have more of a productive day today than yesterday!

Hey guys,

I'm working on an inverted agilus KR10 900 for the first time that is ceiling mounted on a railing. When I enter the base data into KUKA|PRC the robot is right way up and I'm basically working upside within Rhino & grasshopper, making it near impossible - any tips on how to better calibrate base and/or sync the simulation so that everything is as though it appears in real world?

Attached a photo of the KUKA

Thanks for the link Wall-E!

And, as always, you're the best Johannes.

Is there any practical way to animate the simulation? Say for example you're doing an extrusion and want to see the material with the DIG IO places to make sure its turning on and off in the right places?

Thanks Woodboss! I am actually working on the first 'simple' hotwire one now. I've had a couple things holding my latest videos release, but I assure you its not far away!

Glad the videos have helped!

Hi Guys,

Continuing from part one we setup multiple bricks to pick and place in Grasshopper with KUKA PRC:

In this robotics tutorial I go through the basics of setting up a simple pick and place command script for a KUKA robot.

In this robotics tutorial I go through the basics of setting up a custom tool for use on a KUKA using Grasshopper and the robot itself.

Hey Guys,

I've started a series of video tutorials for KUKA PRC and Grasshopper. First one is live now and hot wire cutting is coming up soon!

I'm working on a vertical plane in the cell - the tool offset is moving in the z-axis, is there a quick way yo switch to x or y?

- sorted. just had to orientated my planes instead of being lazy.
