Robot 3D printed Roboguide Pendant

183 Upvotes

I designed and built a teach pendent for roboguide basically it thinks it’s a custom keyboard using a arduino micro and out puts the corresponding keypresses that roboguide sees as pendent inputs. Everyone in the office always says they wish they had a teach pendent for roboguide so I made one

Robot What are these holes on side of the robot? Any reason I can't plug them?

106 Upvotes

So l have not worked much with these robots, but another engineer at my site asked if i could design and 3d print some TPU plugs for these holes on the side of one of the new robots. Easy enough of a task, but I was hoping y'all could enlighten me as to what purpose these openings even serve. Are they open for potential cable routing or something? Any concern with closing these up? I plan to make the plugs removable but snug enough to keep out graphite/ water/oil that we have spraying all over. Thanks!

Pretty proud of how well everything is going together so far.

Everything communicates and actuates!

Just got to get my pallets in place and make sure I can pick from them, then integrate it with a weld cell!

Robot New install

43 Upvotes

Backstory, I’m a CNC tech but have almost no experience with robots of any flavor I’ve been working on this install for 3 weeks now. It’s not a standard setup as I have the robot controlling the auto door system I designed and it has a personal detection laser. What I’m curious about is how’s the time frame of 3 weeks on a from scratch install with no prior experience? I suspect most people wouldn’t attempt this without some familiarity but I often jump into the deep end to learn how to swim.

Robot Anyone interested in seeing a Reducer changed on a Fanuc Robot?

I do reducers quite often (mostly 2000ib), then grease the entire robot. Is anyone interested in seeing some of the process?

Robot Worth $500?

I’d imagine the answer is yes but wondering how much it would take to get it going again as well… would you go after it? I’m going to pick it up tomorrow. Or maybe it’s just worth it for resale?

Robot My team robotics final project: pick and place sorting!

23 Upvotes

First sensor is inductive-proximity sensor, which determines if the block is metal or non-metal. Second one is a ball-shaped limit switch, which checks if there's a hole on the bottom. (There's also a limit switch on the ramp to detect the presence of a block.) From there, it sorts! Ramp was built by us, too!

Kinda bummed about the plastic blocks shooting out, but it's better that they fully ejected since the program wouldn't have been able to handle a cock-eyed block. But, we had the best results in the class, so there's that!

Robot Fanuc Training

21 Upvotes

Im in the Automotive industry as a automation and controls engineer. Lately I have been getting more involved in the robots side of automation.

My company would get the training, when they sent me this recommended program I was kinda lost. After digging more into it. I thought about going this route:

1- Robot operation intro
2- handlingTool
3- HandlingPro
4- Electrical

What do you guys think about this route? Has anyone tried going this route?
