Hi everyone,

Our campany is new for this 3D printing field. Recently we are thinking about using the robot based on the gantry system. So I'm just wandering that can we simulate this kind of machine via PRC by adding the X,Y,Z axis  to a robot as the external axis E1-E3? Does anyone have some ideas?
We'll be so excited for your advice.

Hello,

We had such solutions, I believe Tongji University had a gantry setup that we initially supported. We have users with two external axis (X, Y) which works fine, I think with Z it was a bit hacky.

Best,
Johannes
