Hi am new to robotic, but i want to taste some.
For a few weeks i am looking which is good old robot for milling and i see it will not be an easy task.
So far i read about kuka krc 1 robots;
-windows 95 low spec
-how to put code to robot, via ethernet file share,..
-only about 2000 lines per code at once, but there are some trick i read somewhere stream code live from com port
There are some CAD/CAM softwares for old kuka krc 1 robots (irbcam, sprutcam,..)
I know is possible but hard. I am not looking for full time industry running but more for education purpose!
The problem is i need fully working robot, software and mechanic to start. I can't afford to trouble too much before "milling problems".
Can anyone advises me which robot will be suitable for me?
I looked at Kuka KR6/2 or Kuka KR15, beause i do not need high payload for 1-3KW spindle motor.
Can anyone tell me more about other brands Fanuc, ABB,.. Is there any old robot suitable for milling?
My budget is really low
I know i read that for milling kuka at least krc 2 is recommended, but still very old and have problems with large cnc code...
Mybe i will end project before start
Thanks to everyone for help!
Sorry for my English.
