    Hello everyone,

    I have some difficulties figuring out how to solve my problem, I hope you can help me.

    So, I have two delta robots (M-3iA/6s) with separated controller. The robots are positioned above two conveyors, one is for transporting the parts that need to be packed with the robots and the other one is for transporting the packages to the robot.

    Those conveyors move continuously at the same speed. I need my robots to track both conveyor.

    I managed to do so with both of my robots, but not simultaneously on roboguide. It means that if I activate the tracking on only one robot, any one of them, it will work. It will track the part and the package, and put the part into it. But if I try to activate the second robot, to help the other one in order to keep the pace, it doesn't do anything, the first robot do his job, but not the other one.

    If needed I attached both schedules, the one that work with one robots on the one who dosen't work with two robots.

    If I haven't been clear enough or you're missing information/photos, don't hesitate to tell me.

    Thanks !

    Hello, I would also be glad if someone could advise how to set up two robots on one conveyor.


    I've always done it by cloning the conveyor and using the second copied one for the second robot.

    Hopefully your controllers can have this, but we used R762 Ethernet Encoder. You set it up and one encoder works for multiple robots.

    Hello Doctor_C,


    Thanks you for your response.

    Yes my controllers can have this option, but I can't figure out how to set it up, I tried to configure my encoders under the menu SETUP->Encoders, but I don't know if it's the right thing to configure and how to configure it.

    If you have more information about it I would be very grateful.


    Thanks

    I have a level shifter that is connected to a common controller, the ENCODER is on the shaft, it turns at the time of starting the line, but I do not receive signals
