It seems so basic when you look at the settings, enter box size, pallet size, and infeed location. I just need to figure out how to bring it all together. I have a cell that will be controlled by a AB plc, but I can’t figure out how to integrate Pallet Pro with the real robot either. I’ve successfully converted the programs from pallet pro and handling pro to the real robot, but can’t figure it all out. I’ve asked Fanuc for help connecting the robot and plc to no avail. It seems like there’s 2 options, either use the pallet build settings on the teach pendent, or use pallet pro. I can’t figure out either. I am programming the hard way but I have a long way to go as far as connecting IO and all the handshaking that will take place.
Need manual for palletizing/Pallet tool,

Is this a new or used robot?
What model and controller?

New robot m-410 ic 185.

If this is a new robot, did you just buy it; or, are you an integrator, installing it for another customer?
Do you have the manuals?
If you have never programmed a robot with PalletTool before, I would recommend getting training. Without training, you'll be fighting an uphill battle the whole way.

I am an end user. Training is not available. I have taught myself everything, i am sure i will be capable of using pallet tool. i got my own programs made,but using pallet pro and tool seems like it would be so much easier than programming from scratch like i have been.

If you have trouble correctly posting to a forum, you will have problems with PalletTool.
Training from Fanuc is available, wether or not you can make it work is up to your employer.
PalletTool is a great software package for palletizing, just remember to KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid).

I meant training is not available to me because my job won't send me lmao!! i realize fanuc does have classes. I took a 3 month long in college that taught basic programming.

Honestly I just prefer to roll my own palletizing program in HandlingTool.

Yes I have programmed all of the points. However it’s all of the other handshaking between PLC and conveyors and other IO that is confusing me. I don’t have anything to reference to figure it out. I have the manual but it doesn’t include anything like that.
