Hi Everyone
System details:
KSS version=V8.3.32, controller type=KR C4 smallsize, robot type=KR6 R900 sixx
Resolver: Kuka 00-138-219
ConveyorTech V6.0.3
Some basic questions here. Just need someone to put me on the right track.
I have started reading the ConveyorTech manual and configuring the WV program. However I have some fundamental questions.
I have an synchronization switch wired to my kuka fast input X33. So when my object moves past the sensor the tracking process will start. The same switch is also used to trigger vision (via a plc). The omron vision will tell the PLC several things. Some of this vision data is required by the PLC and some by the robot. There can be up to 9 objects between the synch switch and the pickup. These objects are equally spaced on a roller conveyor.
Somehow this vision information has to be sent to the robot from the omron PLC (Ethernet/IP I assume) and married up with the object which is now being tracked. The vision data will come in after the tracking has started. So a digital input is triggering the tracking and somehow I need to attach data (which comes via Ethernet/IP) to that tracked object. I don't want to purchase KUKA.PickControl.
Thanks
