Hello everyone,
I’m looking for guidance on configuring the SOFTFLOAT option on my Fanuc robot (R30-iB+ controller with R1000iA-100 robot). I’ve recently purchased the SOFTFLOAT option to address a specific application challenge and would appreciate any advice or case studies.
Context:
- I have an external actuator that applies a known force on my workpiece.
- The direction of the force is along the Z- axis of the World coordinate system.
- My goal is to use SOFTFLOAT to compensate for any play so that the force is applied only to the workpiece, without the robot experiencing any stress or force.
Problem:
- I’ve tried several configurations of the SOFTFLOAT option but I’m unsure how it’s supposed to work or if it’s the right option for my application.
Request:
- I’m looking for guidance on how to properly configure SOFTFLOAT for this application.
- If anyone has experience with similar cases, I would be grateful if you could share your insights or suggest best practices.
Any help, advice, or references to similar use cases would be highly appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your support!
