Hi Johannes,

Got it. I will look more into the slicing software and adjust the settings.

Thanks,

Hello,
I see what you mean, it makes a full circle and then goes back to the seam along the circle and from there goes to the next layer.
However, considering that these are basically all LIN movements, I don't really see how this could be coincidental. Are you sure that in your slicer it's only doing it once?
Also, your G-code is around 1000 lines and generates around 700 LINs - considering that there is a lot of header, that sounds very plausible - I don't think that a bug is generating extra movements somehow.
Best,
Johannes

Hi Johannes,


I am trying to read the .gcode for a few circular motions at varying heights. I am certain that there is only one revolution at each height. However, when I feed it to KUKA core through the gcode command, the robot makes two revolutions at each height. Where do you think the problem is originating from?

Thank you.

Hello,
That was a bug, it will be fixed in the next release - thanks for pointing it out and sorry for the inconvenience!
I can send you the fixed release in advance, I just need your eMail address plus your affiliation (as the Import component is a member-only component). Please send me an email with that information (johannes@robotsinarchitecture.org).
Best,
Johannes

Here you go, Johannes!

Hello,

Can you post (or send me) your file including the g-code? Generally g-code is a very wide term, so it might be a parsing problem.

Thanks,
Johannes

I am working on a script to import gcode from cura and output to my KR4. According to the gcode import for KukaPRC, if I enter a string for "extrusion mode" it should map the extrusion velocity to a variable. Unfortunately, this does not seem to be working. Is there a trick to get this to function?

My gcode file has extrusion values, but my kukaprc commands out of the gcode import show only lin moves.

Thanks a lot for sharing the solution, I'm glad that it's working now!

Hello,
Of course that is not a problem at all.
I modified the example from the tutorials section, it is using a grid for pick up, but instead of a grid you could also use the Series component to set the pick-up height on the stack - then create XYZ points where Z is coming from the series and X and Y from the position of the stack.

Hi,
I'm working on a pick-and-place application using KUKA PRC. So far, the robot successfully picks from a single point and stacks items correctly. However, I now want the robot to pick items from a predefined stack instead of just one fixed point.

Could you please confirm if this is possible? If so, I would really appreciate your guidance, as I'm currently struggling to implement this feature.

Thank you in advance for your support.
