With that thing, you could start your own assembly line. I do hope that RevoPoint will allow 3rd party robotic arms to interface with their software/scanners.
The best thing about this project its too big for my wife to throw out! Its Getting a brain transplant to Ethercat Servos and Linuxcnc on a raspbery pi
Don’t ever show this to my son. LOL this one is going to be used for induction line heating experiment and als for weld and or plasma cutting on 3d surfaces. Revopoint has robotic scanning / vision systems for this that i will eventually talk to them about. but this project is at the back of the list for 2 reasons 1. I am in the middle of fitting a BMW diesel and 8 speed auto into that Nissan patrol and 2. It anoys my wife the most
I, too, have a couple of old industrial robot arms (Staubli RX-90’s)! For brain surgery, due to the near total unavailability og MESA boards in the last few years, I can recommend litehm2 as an excellent (and cheap!) alternative. I’m standardising accross the ancient VMC, robot arms and CNC lathe to have one standardised interface, meaning keeping spares in stock is a non issue.
thanks for the info Yeah i have seen it but i will stick to ethercat it has a distributed clock good for robotics projects. that and 3.8kw ethercat drives can be had new for $650 Australian with 23 bit absolute encoders and built in brake. that and i use them on my mill and my plasma table. Please don’t take offense but i was never a fan of the mesa style of things it just seamed like going backwards to giant control cabinets and insane amounts of wiring
p.s. this arm needs 3 3.8kw drives in the base alone i just drop them in config the drive connect a Ethernet cable config as usual in lcnc, only wiring i have to do is power. I have tried quite a few ways hell i was og paraport and steppers in the 90s but ethercat just works
I should explain that this come with no drives and most of the resolvers had been removed as it was a parts robot, because when they want to change its job they found support for it was more expensive than a new robot
