Above link is the track. I have created it as mechanism not conveyor. After import this track, install the IRB120 Robot to SliderSurface which is a part of this smart component.

Although I can move the robot by changing two input signals of the track, the robot can not reach the target point defined too far away from the orignal position. I know the reason is that the baseframe is not moving by the track, but I don’t know how to do that to make the robot movable and reach every target point along the track?

Please help me~thanks.
