Axis Tracking

  • I have a setup with a rotary table mounted with two axes on each face (being used for welding). I can control these 3 axes at the moment with an S4C Plus controller. For being able to weld from every side, I activate the axis which is facing the robot move it then deactivate it an then I continue jogging the robot for welding.


    For cylindrical objects, I want to keep rotating the axis while doing welding. At the same time the robot needs to track the work-piece mounted on the axis. What do I need to do this? Is it just a software option or do I need to check for some hardware like tracking boards?



    Thanks in advance.
