8 Robot Coordinated Motion

DLcygnet

Good Morning,

 

I've only ever been aware that 4 robots could be coordinated on one controller/within Robot studio. I have been told by a colleague (who heard it from a sales rep) that it is possible to have 8 robots conducting coordinated motion. If it were a real system, I'd work the issue over ethernet - but how would you do it in the virtual world?

 

We have some very long parts that we want these 8 robots to pick & place and not twist the part. Where would I even start? I've been asked to conduct a reach study to see if the process is even feasible.

 

Thank you!

Moving to RobotWare forum, as there might be someone out there who knows how this task can be accomplished.
