Thanks for the update! Looking good. Does the Igus robot have a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) that you can program so end effectors can be managed in a synchronized way?
Basically each motor is controlled via CANbus. Here is the documentation for the CAN protocol used cpr-robots.com/download/CAN/CPR_CAN_Protocol_V2_UserGuide_en.pdf . Igus has their own windows based software that can control the motors ( and robot as a whole ). But I wrote my own control software that follows this CAN protocol. The can messages are sent out from a CAN usb adapter on the raspberry PI and the kinematics is done via my web based application shown in the video.
hey I have the same robot, but everytime I reference the robot I have a big inaccuracy to get to the points I have set. Same thing if I turn off the robot. Afterwards my program is unusable because he drives to different locations than before.
i have installed your web based application for controlling IGUS Rebel robot. But when I try to set waypoint and save waypoints in cookbook section i got some error 404.. should i connect the robot to be able save the waypoints? i dont have the robot yet
So I actually used this gripper from the AR4 robot drive.google.com/file/d/1EmDsH71n0chPxTI5fSjBHcfw5GjuttP7/view You can 3d print and assemble it yourself.
