Conveyor tracking on turn-table
pavpav

in RobotStudio
Hello
I have an application where the robot picks items from a turn-table.
I would like the robot motion to follow with the turn table as it makes a searchL motion towards the object.
At the momen a rotator smartComponent is rotating the turn-table in my simulation.
Any suggestions on how this can be done?

Hello,<br>You need to define the turn tanble as an external axis and control it from the robot controller. <div>Then you can attach the workobject to the turn table to get a coordinated motion.</div><div>The easiest way to create the system is with "System from Layout". </div><div>Use the standard IRBP L positioner when you create the system, then replace it with your own turn table mechanism (which must be of the type "external axis").</div><div><br></div><div>Best regards,</div><div>Anders</div>Best regards,
