Geometric Interpolation Error

Hi, I have this problem:
some time while a RAPID program is running on robot (controller IRC5) in auto mode on FP appear the "ERROR 10376" -> Geometric Interpolation failed, and the robot will be stopped.
So to continue the interrupped program it i must to open Robotsudio Online and in rapid window set the program pointer exactly on robot motion pointer and do restart the rapid program from here, and after do it, the program running correctly to done.
Maybe there is some way to do it by PC SDK (last version) instead by Robostudio Online?? i think that i must to less the actual path on controller memory but i need of don't lost the actual motion pointer position to continue the rapid program from stopped point to continue my work.

some ideas?

bye ema

  • PC SDK does not have a move PP to MP function. It only has a SetProgramPointer to routine function.
    Maybe you want to put such a request in the Upfeed forum?
     
    But shouldn't you really troubleshoot the root cause for this?
    If you know where the motion pointer is, you should be able to see the lines causing it, shouldn't you?
  • Hi ECapitanio,
     I did have got the same problem are having.
    The only real solution in order to avoid the get the error any more is to update the the robotware version 5.14.03.

  • Found this related to ArcWelding. Which RobotWare version do you have on the controller?

    If there are problems with 50376 Geometric Interpolation Failed
    at
    WeldGuide corrections can a change of spline_parameter in MOC.cfg
    help.
    (MOTION_PLANNER / SPLINE_PARAMETERS / max_spline_divergence =
    0.0003)
    As the parameter not is open must the change be done in a
    backup:
    If there is a -use_spline_parameters under MOTION_PLANNER then
    change/add the max_spline_divergence to 0.0003 else
    add
    -use_spline_parameters "my_spline_parameter_mg1" to MOTION_PLANNER
    and
    add at end of file:
    SPLINE_PARAMETERS:
    -name "my_spline_parameter_mg1"
    -max_spline_divergence 0.0003
    The disadvantage with this change is of corse
    that the robot then can make a deviation of 0.3 mm from the path in another
    place.
  • I have also had Geometric Interpolation errors.  <div>In my case, it just randomly occurs in a program that otherwise runs fine.  After the error, I just attempt to run the program again and it works fine.  It is a nuisance more than a problem, being that the program I am running works fine 99% of the time.  Has anyone had a similar issue and has an idea how to resolve this?  My local ABB reps have no info and have had no insight in the past year.....thanks.</div>
