…unloading, packing, palletizing, vision-guided pick and place, sanding, and welding. The CRX robots can detect external forces in the workspace, stopping safely when making contact with a person or object. This technology allows the cobots to work safely alongside people without the need for expensive guarding. FANUC said its new CRX-5iA, CRX-20iA/L and CRX-25iA collaborative robots can handle payloads of 5, 20, and 25 kg (11, 44, and 55.1 lb.), respectively. They join its existing CRX-10iA and CRX-10iA/L models, which have 10 kg (22 lb.) payload and a reach of 1,249 and 1,418 mm (49.1 and 16.4 in.), respectively. The…

…and accurately perform tasks such as cutting, drilling, and welding in the correct location, said SprutCAM Tech. The calibration process typically involves measuring the positions of various points on the tool and using these measurements to calculate the position of the TCP. SprutCAM said its app uses the “double-spikes” method for calibration. The double-spikes method is a TCP calibration method used in robotic and machine tool applications. It consists of measuring two points on a probe and calculating the position of the tool center point based on these measurements. Measurement of the position of the long tool. The position of…
