Cell Offset

RobotStudio

Is there any way to offset an entire cell (rotation and position) in RobotStudio?

I’ve imported a system from a robot controller and the entire cell is modeled as floating in space on its side (robot should be above the positioner).

I thought it could be that the robot’s wobj has an offset but according to the “Modify Workobject” dialogue it is at 0,0,0. RobotStudio however says it is offset by more than 2 metres in “World” reference.

The wobj in “Station Elements” has the same user/object frame and has the correct orientation/position (shown below).

You can use the “Task Frame” to move the controllers perception of the world origin in relation to RobotStudio. This will probably solve your problem.

Right-click on the controller node in the Paths&Targets browser and move it.

Note that you will get questions asking if you want to move the base frame and the RAPID programs too.

Answer Yes to the base frame question (to move in the the RS world) and no to the RAPID quesiton (since you want to move the RAPID program with the robot).

Thanks Henrik, that solved the problem.
