Hello,
I have a project to connect a R-30iB controller robot to customer's ERP system.
Their ERP system supporter tells me he would like to have the robot access the database directly through ODBC and invoke dedicated stored procedures both for fetching and recording information.
After some researches I found out people are buying and using OPC servers to accomplish this. Is there any other way to do this without getting additional software?
If we are going to buy the OPC server software, what is a good brand for Fanuc robot since there are so many brands out there?
Thank you
