I am retrofitting old 6 axis robot with new electronics and LinuxCNC. My current progress is quite successful - it works in world mode using genserkins. But there are a lot of things to improve.
My question: what is the best way reached with LinuxCNC to control similar robot? I think, main points are: 1. Kinematics module. Does pumakins has more good features than genserkins? As rotation axis of 2nd axis is offset from rotation axis of 1st axis, There is no parameter to describe this. 2. Jerk limitation or S-curved velocity profile or NURBS. I think it is a must if you want to get better performance with the robot. 3. Better out-of-range avoidance. When jogging out of reach now with genserkins, it throws joint following error, then I have to enter joint mode, turn-on, and then try to enter world mode. 4. World feedrate limitation based on joint velocity, acceleration limits. What progress araisrobo made in this field? Can I use it? What is its development status now? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ November Webinars for C, C++, Fortran Developers Accelerate application performance with scalable programming models.
