Hey All,
Any one have any experience using the Leoni Advintec TCP Calibration tool? I was looking in to using it for calibrating user frames and TCPs specifically with Fanucs and Kukas.
I look forward to your replies.

What's your review on it? Was it useful and did it work well?

We had 6D measurement with several (big) grippers, gripper change system and partially vision system on the robot. In my opinion this was a waste of time and money, because the grippers have to fit at more than one gripperparts, if he is twisted from a crash, you can't 'repair' it with measuring. But the customer wanted it, don't know if it was ever used to correcting something after a crash or so.
It's a bit fiddly to setup, even the specialist from Leoni needed one complete day for two grippers.
On KUKAs they need 4 tool_datas for one gripper, that's a bit strange, but can be changed with a bit more programming skills than the Leoni template programmers had.
Think it is good for welding torches, glue nozzles or similar, where one single tcp is decisive.
We didn't use it for measuring bases.

Hi hermann, do you have any metrics on how long the cycle time of the operation using the Leoni is?
-
Can't remember the time.

It varies -- Leoni has 3D and 5D models. Also, some robot&tool combinations may need to run at different speeds in order to achieve accuracy.
It's been quite a few years, but I recall the 5D taking about 10sec for a complete run.
