Palletizing PowerPac 5.14.02.01 is released [PickMaster 5]

Dear PickMaster 5 and Palletizing PowerPac users,

This minor release fixes bugs that we found since 5.14.02:

  1. Production rate calculation is not reset after simulation stop and started again
    If you started a next simulation directly without clicking Reset, the production information
    from last simulation was not cleared. This is fixed.

  2. Exception occurs when attached tool is detached or deleted
    If you opened Pick Setting dialog once, and removed the attached tool later, an exception
    would happen. This is fixed.

  3. RAPID error of ambiguous routine name happens sometime
    The default PmMain and PmUtility modules are dynamically loaded when simulation is
    started. This, however, may sometimes cause RAPID error of ambiguous routine name
    afterwards, since both PmMain and PmProjMgr modules contain main routine. This is
    fixed that now after clicking Reset, the dynamically loaded PmMain will be removed.

Dear Jiang,

Could you please provide me a RoboStudio Tutorials for an project example such as some video which I am watching in the ABB site, then I can practice by myself.

Thanks !

Dear nhatnb,

Unfortunately we do not have tutorial videoes available for public yet. But I can suggest you to start with the template samples we provided in the software installation (after installation, you will find a “Palletizing Selector” shortcut on your desktop, from which you can find 4 samples, each using one type of ABB standard palletizing gripper).

We spent much effort in this product to improve usability, so that you can quickly play and benefit from it. If you find anything hard to understand, or can simply be improved, please let us know immediately.

Hope you have fun with the product!

Dear Jiang,

I have started with template sample, but I think it is not easy to understand, because this project done by somebody and ready for simulate running. So what can I study on it and how can I start build the system form beginning… I try to learn it but It seems not easy.
I still need tutorial very much, so please try to make a simple one for me.
Thanks,
Nhat
