Smart Component Gripper doesn't work.

Hello,

I built a station which picks and places a box with vacuum gripper. I added and connected all necessary components to the gripper. However, the gripper doesn’t pick the part when RAPID program is executed. I don’t know why. Can anybody help with?

BR,

Pack&Go is attached.

Hi,

For the smart components to work you have to use the simulation controls (on the simulation tab) not run the RAPID directly.

Hi,

Yes, I know. I’ve done simulation setup and station logic. And then I started the simulation test by clicking ‘Play’ on simulation tab menu. I wonder if I missed anything while creating smart component and connecting I/O signals to the gripper.

Hi,

When I run the simulation, the line sensor detects the tool geometry instead of the box. You can fix this by making the tool undetectable:


Hej,

You got it. the gripper is now working.

Thanks. Tack so mycket. :
