What is the difference between ObjectFrame and Frame ?

  • Hello everybody,


    i am using kuka Lbr iiwa R820 14 and i have a case where i should set the value of an axis of a point, but it doesnt work because my point is an objectframe point, and it i can see from sunriseworkbench that we can use this just for a type frame point, so what is the difference between Object frame and Frame.


    Example of what i described :


    - we can do this :


    Frame Test;
    Test.setX(66);


    - But we cannot do this :


    ObjectFrame Test;
    Test.setX(66);



    so i just want to understand why, and if there is any possibility to set an axis of an Objectframe.


    Thank you guys.

  • A Frame is a location somewhere in space, which is discribed by a translational and rotational shift from an Origin (e.x. world, base).
    An ObjecteFrame is a Frame which belongs to an object, for example the TCP of a tool is an ObjectFrame. An ObjectFrame got some different capabilities, e.x. move, other ObjectFrame can be attached, it got an owner to which this ObjectFrames belongs to (a PhysicalObject, e.x. Tool, Workpiece).
