Awesome Adam! I am working on the Starbucks palletizing cell and this is helping me alot as far as moving objects. The location on the starting and stopping is still throwing me for a loop sometimes. Putting zero doesn’t always work for DOx on/off.
Hi Daniel, there is a robot option called "Machine Tool Interface Package" that allows you to develop an interface between robot and CNC to upload/run programs, monitor status, etc. I'd recommend starting a conversation with your local FANUC rep on how to get/setup that option. Good luck!
Daniel; one more option, you may want to look into the G-Code option; check it out here: www.fanucamerica.com/products/cnc/software/cnc-robot-control-qssr-g-code
Is there a way to index a box in x direction, fill it, push the full in y direction and start with an empty box that is moved in from an upstream machine (conveyor)?
Absolutely! You can set the degrees for rotation to be larger, or, setup additional DO[x] bits to have the machine link rotate to 180, 270, etc. Triggering the same DO[x] multiple times will not move it more times though. The DO sends a positional signal to the link, so you'd need to setup more locations like shown at 20:37. From there, you certainly can have another robot pick the parts!

Adam how to link a camera into the irpickpro? It does not allow that.

Great video! Can you do another similar video but with line tracking please?
Great Information. I want to connect an M-20iA to a Fanuc 32iTB iHMI cnc machine, but not really sure where to start.

Could you index the dial as in maybe 2 or 3 times to move the part to 180 deg or 270 deg and pick in with another robot?

Nice video! Is it possible to have one with the iRPickTool? Thanks!
Why i cant download it?????
Hallo. How can I learn robotics and how to programming a robot ?
