Trigger gripper action

tankus

Hi,guys,my task is to simulate the action of gripper picking up a pin from a dispencer.

I first added a signal and unit in virtual controller, and added it with move mechanism to pose event,however then I reAlized that the signals I created are not available on the robot which makes the rapid cod generated from simulation useless on the robot.



Someone mentioned I could use collision set to do the simulation which would ensure the readable rapid code ready to go on the robot which I have no idea how do to.



Can someone tell me which method is better and how should it be done using collision set to trigger gripping action in simulation? Thx a lot!

I would recommend you to take a look at 'Smart Components' that are introduced in RobotStudio 5.13. This is a new way of creating simulations that replaces the Event Manager. There are four tutorials available on the Tutorial page of the RobotStudio community. The related RS data is available on the content sharing page.
