Hi,
this are my first tries to program robots in VC. I have the issue that i need to pick up a moving part and place it on another moving part. To pick up the moving part is no problem, therefor i use the jointMoveToComponent method. But so far i have not find a satisfying solution to place it on another moving part, for example a carrier.
In my Layout i have two conveyor. Each one has a feeder. A robot is placed between both conveyor. First the robot grip one cylinder from conveyor#1. Then he turns around and should place the grabbed cylinder on another moving cylinder.
if i use the jointMoveToComponent-method the robot use the actual place of the target-cylinder and don’t calculate the Position after moving.
So my idea was to use the follownode-method. First i would move near the second cylinder, then i would to follow the node and at least to place the first cylinder on the second.
It doesnt work… moreover i receive always an error-message. Can anyone help me ?
Script:
from vcScript import *
from vcHelpers.Robot2 import *
def OnRun():
while sim.IsRunning == True:
if app.findComponent(“Conveyor”).findBehaviour(“Path__HIDE__”).ComponentCount !=0:
BOX = app.findComponent(“Conveyor”).findBehaviour(“Path__HIDE__”).Components[0]
Robo.pickMovingPart(BOX)
Robo.jointMoveToComponent(app.findComponent(“Conveyor #2”).findBehaviour(“Path__HIDE__”).Components[0].findNode(“Cylinder”))
Robo.followNode(app.findComponent(“Conveyor #2”).findBehaviour(“Path__HIDE__”).Components[0].findNode(“Cylinder”),20.0)
Robo.place(app.findComponent(“Conveyor #2”).findBehaviour(“Path__HIDE__”).Components[0])
delay(1)
app = getApplication()
comp = getComponent()
sim = getSimulation()
Robo = getRobot(app.findComponent(“GenericRobot #2”))
PlacePlace = app.findComponent(“Ablageplatz”)
