Hello All, I am nearing completion of setting up my Palletizing robot, using PAlletpro and RoboGuide.
I am having issues with the unit load placement. I was starting by trying to create a unique load until guidance from FANUC let me know that it would be much easier with ROBOGUIDE. We also had a simulated PC pattern (That FANUC created during our purchase process) that I took (once I got the licensing) and downloaded to the Robot to replace my feeble attempts at a unique load creation. My issue now is what I was struggling with when creating a unique load. Here is the email I sent to FANUC earlier, waiting on their 1 Palletpro expert to respond--he's pretty busy!
I was able to load the unit load files yesterday afternoon, as well as the pallet station files. The pattern appears to be correct if I let it keep running . I still, however, have the same issue where it wants to drop the first layer off about 44mm above where it should place it- so dropping from mid air. I have checked that all data says it is on layer 1 and has the correct unit numbers for pattern placement. I have verified the height of the box is correct in the unit load data. I have verified the UTool data reads all zeros when teaching the pallet station. I have tried without using pointer tool and with pointer tool, adjusting measuring tool height accordingly. The only way I can get it to drop closer is if I teach a position that is well below the actual pallet height. But I cannot see a parameter that is telling it offset this height?? I want it to work the way it should (with origin taught above the pallet) to avoid offset issues down the line...Any help is greatly appreciated...
